i love your writing but this one is a special gem.

i’m on board with all of it except the trump crime family getting a pass. they’ll be stripped of all their money, paid minimum wage, and forced to work in the zoo all day every day where they’ll live and pay rent to a robot slumlord. the money they earn will also go back to the people they’ve harmed and they’ll need to eat whatever patrons have left in the trash. their larynxes will be disabled so they can’t complain and the shock collars they’ll be wearing won’t allow them to escape.

one of the evil trump sons had “ministry of truth” as his twitter bio for years. they know exactly what they’re doing. even tiffany.

also you forgot the supreme court exhibit where the 6 enablers and ginny thomas will reinvent the “naked and afraid” genre every single day.

nice choices. But wouldn't this whole thing be a massive air polluting smell?

That's a legitimate concern. I'm guessing it will need to be in a rural area used to the smell of dung.

Completely enclose it. Air scrubbers on the Outside. Visitors will be issued breathing masks so the can't smell the stench. 😈

Speaking as a Canadian, this could motivate me to end my travel ban to the U.S.

Canadians get free admission for the first year! Penance for our stupidity.

What about MELANIA? I propose her cell, I mean environment, is the festive bleeding Christmas tree exhibit sitting on the concrete turf that used to be the Rose garden. Her goal is to Be Best. To accomplish this, she will have to listen to Michelle Obama speeches around the clock to learn what a real Intelligent American Woman sounds like interspersed with President Obama saying nice things about Michelle. Her clothes could be from goodwill, or just orange jumpsuits. Perhaps we could provide some sewing videos to help her modify the jumpsuits with her own fashion sense, continuing to Be Best. Since she also had a deep concern for cyber bullying, there could be continual slide shows and videos of her husband who excels at these two things. In closing, let’s finally give her the opportunity to Be Best!

I like your idea for this fascist freak show. I had to Google the name of a freak show that started in Seattle, the Jim Rose Circus. They have a guy who lifts weights via piercings in his genitals, and I think Pete H should be forced to master this act. He’d otherwise have it too easy swimming around in bourbon.

This is even better than my idea to use Stephen Kings outline to have the administration degenerates perpetually compete in barely sub-lethal forms of entertainment ala Running Man.
