Donald Trump said he is directing his government to reopen and expand Alcatraz, the infamous former prison on an island near San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge. In a message on his Truth Social site, US President Trump said that "for too long America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat criminal offenders". The reopening of Alcatraz - once notorious as one of the US's toughest prisons - would serve as a "symbol of law, order, and justice," he said. Leading Democrats said the proposal was "not a serious one". Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1rbfUog For more news, analysis and features visit: www.bbc.com/news #DonaldTrump #Alcatraz #BBCNews
