Celebrating triumph of Trumpism
Editor, The Sun:
Local MAGA supporters pondering how they can play a part in contributing to the success of our beloved President Trump’s mass deportation program may want to consider pushing for the establishment of a detention center right here in Wakulla County, specifically, at Opportunity Park. Such a move would be an opportunity to add to the list of our new president’s list of accomplishments; it also would create an opportunity to come to the aid of our country by banishing job-stealing illegals, and it would be an opportunity to benefit our county by creating jobs.
In a recent (12/28/24) Fox Business interview, border czar Tom Homan revealed that the price tag to start the removal program was a mere $86 Billion. One need not be a member of the Wakulla Economic Development Council to understand how the funneling of just a fraction of this sum to Wakulla County might benefit our local economy. The construction and operation of such a facility would attract good jobs fostering stronger families. Additionally, this would develop a stronger community. No longer would we be a bedroom community; there could be a second revenue stream in addition to tourism. There may even be enough money left over to provide every classroom in the county with a copy of “The Art of the Deal.”
Opportunity Park is ideally situated for such an undertaking. There are acres and acres of vacant land; the infrastructure is already in place; there’s an airport conveniently located to fly out deportees; and almost next door there is a prison to incarcerate immigrant law breakers.
In addition to rapidly becoming the Fast Food Capital of Florida, what better way to celebrate the triumph of Trumpism? The construction of what should certainly come to be known as “Camp Gaetz” — so named in honor of our Republican superstar, Matt Gaetz the next governor of Florida — is just the ticket. MAGA!
