#1 The one thing a hotel and resort manager hates is empty rooms. I hope Trump fills up Gitmo with the same guys just released (plus a few more) and renames the resort "Barack Hussein Obama Forever Stay Prison"

#2 One promise Obama did keep was not to add a single detainee to the population at Guantánamo, relying largely on the federal justice system and foreign partners. For the rest: lethal drone strikes.

Ironic, isn't it? Send no one to prison to determine guilt, just send folks presumed guilty, and a few nearby persons of unknown guilt, to their ultimate destination.

(Good news)It does save the cost of care and feeding at Gitmo, (bad news) but at the cost of a Hellfire missile.
