Americans once opposed this inhumane system.
The Trump administration sent innocent people there to suffer.

Here’s a modest proposal, let’s convert Mar-a-Lago into a federal prison, just send the worst of the worst offenders there. There’s already an over-priced security detail down there. Cost savings all around.

Trump’s Commerce Secretary just said seniors shouldn’t “call and complain” if they stop getting their Social Security checks: “A fraudster always makes the loudest noise screaming and complaining.”
