Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I've said this before but the obvious solution is to reopen Guantanamo and just leave him there.
He'll have to fend off the seagulls himself.
Guantanamo never closed
Alkatraz sounds cooler though.
No way am I going to let him ruin Alcatraz. That was the best audio tour I ever had and I don't want to have to hear him yelling bullshit over the headphones. They aren't noise-cancelling.
Seriously though, I highly recommend it if you're in San Francisco. You go through the building hearing testimonies from former prisoners and guards all while the sounds of the prison's various areas, whichever one you happen to be in, play in the background while you walk through it. It's amazingly immersive.
It would be ironic to have him in prison in California.
I concur. I'd recomment the evening tour if they still offer it.
My favorite option is have the government take over Mar-A-Lago. Trump stays in one room - which gets stripped to just the bare walls with a prison cot tossed in. Nobody else - except for Secret Service or support staff like janitors and cooks - are allowed in.
At mealtime, he's marched down the bare glass hallways to the empty dining area where he's served standard prison food. Then he's marched right back to his room. Let him rot as a shell of a man in the shell of the complex he loved so much.
We could call France's ambassador and ask if we could borrow Devil's Island...
