President Donald Trump, speaking at the House Republican Retreat in Doral, Florida, suggested Monday that he wanted to fly American criminals to other countries who will incarcerate them for “a small fee.”
“I don’t want these violent repeat offenders in our country anymore. If they’ve been arrested many, many times, I want them out of our country,” Trump said. “Let them be brought to a foreign land and maintained by others for a very small fee as opposed to be maintained in our jails for massive amounts of money including the private prison companies that charge us a fortune. Let them be brought out of our country and let them live there for a while and see how they like it. You’ll see crime all over the country dry up.”
I didn’t think I’d discover a new kind of Guy in a Trump speech. A Guy who’s against private prisons, not because of the terrible profit motive, but because the prison companies are making too much profit
When MSNBC was covering Trump’s fascist power grab - their Pentagon reporter talked about how the funding cuts could impact the military. And she spoke Trump’s own plans for space weapons could be interrupted. Talk about guns and fucking butter.
I have no doubt that some MSNBC viewers are actually more concerned about stuff like “troop readiness” and goddamned space weapons than they are by the simple reality that if the funds aren’t available there will be total chaos all across America and millions of regular, old Americans - like their neighbors - will face hardships.
"Let them be brought out of our country and let them live there for a while and see how they like it. You’ll see crime all over the country dry up" absolutely skyrocket.

President Deals makes for interesting times
the worst part is your average american is brainwormed enough to unironically agree with this, even down to the moving prisoners out = less crime part
