On Tuesday morning President Donald Trump spoke to reporters at the White House, commenting on the construction of “Alligator Alcatraz” – an illegal alien deportation facility being constructed in rural Florida. The President then left for the state and toured the new facility.
Reporter: With the Alligator Alcatraz, is the idea that if some illegal immigrant escapes, they’ll get eaten by an alligator?
Trump: I guess that’s the concept. This is not a nice business. I guess that’s the concept. If you, you know, snakes are fast, but alligators are big. We’re going to teach them how to run away from an alligator, okay? If they escape prison, how to run away. Don’t run in a straight line. Run like this, and you know what? Your chances go up about 1%, okay? Not a good thing.
The Gateway Pundit described the facility as:
Like the original Alcatraz Island in the San Francisco Bay, Florida’s Alligator Alcatraz will be surrounded by deadly conditions, including alligators, pythons, and dense swampland in the Florida Everglades.
“There is only one road leading in, and there is— the only way out is a one way flight,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday. “It is isolated and surrounded by dangerous wildlife and unforgiving terrain.”
“They ain’t going anywhere once they’re there, unless you want them to go somewhere,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said Monday. “Because good luck getting to civilization. So the security is amazing — natural and otherwise.”
