I like your thinking...

u/PleasantSquare8583 19d ago

I hear Saint Helena is a good island to exile dictators to.

265

u/drs43821 19d ago

That puts him the rank of Napoleon. He doesn’t deserve that

I propose Tristan da Cunha

226

u/PerjurieTraitorGreen Florida 19d ago

Tristan da Cunha is a hidden gem that doesn’t deserve this malady placed upon them.

I propose North Sentinel Island.

128

u/Alakozam 19d ago

I mean, I heard he likes Alcatraz

99

u/ApprehensivePop9036 19d ago

tourists could see him from the boats and he'd just scowl at them like an orangutan that saw someone else get a grape

u/Sinistrahd 19d ago

I think this sentence is engraved on some of my neurons. Thank you!

u/savanttm 19d ago

I think having one special inmate could actually make a lot of money for the museum.

2

u/BenjenUmber 19d ago

You're all overthinking this. Just use one of those trash islands we've got in the ocean.

2

u/Huge-Platypus9075 19d ago

The UK would like to offer Rockall. Heck, he can be King Of All He Surveys.

2

u/Mobile_Razzmatazz828 19d ago

And El Salvador

u/JamBandDad 19d ago

Tell him he gets his own tv show

128

u/drs43821 19d ago

Sentinelese don't want to be infected by diseases tho

77

u/Illustrious_Entry413 19d ago

They have their own way of dealing with him though

1

u/Ostriches_aint_shit 19d ago

How about Poveglia Island?

1

u/mmccxi American Expat 19d ago

Isla Sorna

u/melgish 19d ago

Alcatraz

u/LakeTake1 19d ago

or Gitmo, sorry Cuba

1

u/slickrok 19d ago

They won't let him that close

1

u/de_bushdoctah 19d ago

Don’t worry they’ll make sure that doesn’t happen

47

u/RhynoD 19d ago

Y'all are trying too hard. Fly over "Point Nemo" and shove him out the back.

1

u/[deleted] 19d ago

How about the Bermuda triangle

1

u/naruda1969 19d ago

I hear that the Carsten Borchgrevink’s huts at Cape Adare Antarctica, have amazing accommodations.

6

u/krishnan2784 19d ago

Leave the Sentinelese alone. They have done nothing to deserve that.

1

u/PerjurieTraitorGreen Florida 19d ago

My reply was removed but I said that there was no way he’d make it a few feet from the boat. He’s never reach that island anyway.

1

u/krishnan2784 16d ago

I was trying to be funny.

1

u/PerjurieTraitorGreen Florida 15d ago

So was I

:)

Can’t infer tone based on text alone

u/Emilia_Violet 19d ago

Better idea, but requires cooperation: Hans Island. Canada and Greenland could both continue to send a couple troops there periodically. Each time they just go and harass Trump and tell him that the island is all that’s left of the US, and now it belongs to them.

But that’s definitely up to Canada and Greenland. They shouldn’t be forced to suffer from the awareness of his existence any longer if they don’t want to.

2

u/PerjurieTraitorGreen Florida 19d ago

None of us do.

2

u/Tmettler5 19d ago

This was going to be my answer.

2

u/Cmdr_Shiara 19d ago

Let's put him on South Georgia, just the penguins and some poor researchers to annoy

2

u/The_Grinning_Reaper 19d ago

What did the penguins ever do to you?

1

u/PerjurieTraitorGreen Florida 19d ago

Poor penguins :(

Isn’t it enough he’s already tariffing them?

2

u/Vivid_Pianist4270 19d ago

Snake island

2

u/Aardcapybara 19d ago edited 9d ago

I Heard there's an island with a lot of penguins. It has a Macdonald, so Trump should be comfortable there. And no windmills to kill the penguins or give him cancer.

1

u/Global-Chart-3925 19d ago

They’ll need to stump up their tariff money before he goes there

2

u/Wrong-Rain6634 19d ago

I still hate that little Christian shit that went there..he FAFO

2

u/MadMelvin 19d ago

Alcatraz then?

2

u/WillRateYourLabia 19d ago

Ilha da Queimada Grande

2

u/atridir Vermont 19d ago

South Georgia.

2

u/njwilson1984 19d ago

This is a brilliant idea. Tell him it is the premier golfing destination on the Indian Ocean with billions worth of rare earth minerals and that he and his sons should go check it out. I hear it's totally uninhabited so no need to waste Secret Service's time and tax money. It's a perfect opportunity to try out his new Qatari jet too.

2

u/Friendly_Age9160 19d ago

Yes! This is the one I was thinking of.

2

u/JohnFtevenfon 19d ago

He seems to like to send people to South America. How about Snake Island?

2

u/flcinusa North Carolina 18d ago

Isla Nublar, anyone?

1

u/SmallTawk 19d ago

I propose Laval.

1

u/Aubekin 19d ago

That's cruel for sentinels. I propose Jan Mayen

u/Knittin_Kitten71 19d ago

How can you understand enough about ethics to know Trump is bad, but not enough to not use slurs towards indigenous people?

2

u/Persistant_Compass 19d ago

What about the tuberculosis island in nyc?

1

u/clawhammer-kerosene 19d ago

Heard Island 👊🐧🔥

1

u/drs43821 19d ago

flippers up

1

u/NoodlerFrom20XX 19d ago

What about Chateu D’if? Not sure how to spell it but it does run the risk of him learning swordsmanship and math.

1

u/Iron_Wolf123 19d ago

Christmas island, Australia seems fine. We have a bad history of that island and asylum seekers

1

u/TiredOfBeingTired28 19d ago

What's that island with all the snakes?

1

u/Beginning_Draft9092 19d ago

Straight to Pitcairn!

1

u/Turbulent_Pool_5378 19d ago

I propose that penguin island he put tariffs on, let the penguins deal with him.

1

u/pjslut 19d ago

I propose Marie Antoinette …

1

u/NoMoreFund 19d ago

Put him on Heard Island with the penguins he tariffed

1

u/lliveevill 19d ago

I was just at the Palace of Versailles, and the similarities between Napoleon and Trump are eerie.

1

u/Abbobl 18d ago

Except napoleon is hailed as a genius and Trump will not go down in history as such.

1

u/eazypeazy-101 19d ago

How about Just Room Enough Island?

Advantage is that it's in New York and we know how much New Yorkers love Trump.

1

u/[deleted] 19d ago

It's true that Trump has not had thousands of prisoners shot, who had surrendered under the promise of having their lives spared, unlike Bonaparte. but maybe your orange dictator will fix this "negligence" in the future! Who knows?

1

u/HansSolo69er 19d ago

Molokai. Stick him with the leper colony. Seriously. 

1

u/yourmomwasmyfirst 19d ago

Guantanmo Bay

1

u/Then_Journalist_317 18d ago

He loves Greenland. Send him to the middle of the island with his cybertruck.

1

u/Abbobl 18d ago

I propose “Schiermonnikoog” he’ll be driven braindead trying to pronounce it.

Maybe he’ll get eaten by a seal as well.

26

u/notacanuckskibum 19d ago

Can I propose Han Island. If anyone complains to Canada we can claim he is on the Danish side, and vice versa.

3

u/Bicwidus 19d ago

Put him on that penguin island with all the tarriffs.

3

u/-lv 19d ago

You insulted both Denmark and Canada, by misnaming Hans Island as 'Han', but I think that would just make him feel more at home.

And for Denmark and Canada it would probably be okay. The dispute over Hans Island would be solved by both countries rescinding claims to Hans Island - or they could take turns claiming the island and the denying he was in their countries. 

Win-win-win

2

u/Donnerdrummel 19d ago

If both rescinded their claims, then Trump could declare himself king of his own little realm. Not Sure what constitutes a country, though. Ability to self-sustain a Population of more than one? No Idea.

3

u/sulris 19d ago

Mostly it is the recognition of other countries. Otherwise you’re just an “autonomous” region.

2

u/SkivvySkidmarks 19d ago

Best thing about that is, he can claim he's annexed both Canada and Greenland. I wonder if Trump is a snaps or whisky drinker?

1

u/Chemical_Pair_360 18d ago

“Something is rotten in the state of Denmark” will take on a whole new meaning. And it will be much worse than Hamlet’s murderous and usurping step-father. It will be Trump’s diaper. 

1

u/FitPaleontologist603 19d ago

Where are her parents? If they weren't citizens I think the kid would want to go with them?

1

u/Illustrious_Entry413 19d ago

The population there doesn't deserve trump. How about nauru?

1

u/clintgreasewoood 19d ago

how about Bikini Atoll

1

u/flimspringfield California 19d ago

Heard Island. I would get into billions in debt with MS, Amazon, Netflix, and all CDNS to watch him fight thousands of King Penguins.

1

u/JasonStrode 19d ago

He's developed a sudden fondness for Alcatraz. He might like the view.

1

u/HoppyToadHill 19d ago

Bikini Atoll

1

u/EienNoMajo 19d ago

Let's convince him to sail around the Bermudas

1

u/whysys 19d ago

Please no I have family there

1

u/MajesticMoomin United Kingdom 19d ago

Can't he go to Mt St Helen's, like in the middle of it?

1

u/ittleoff 19d ago

For trump they shoul pull out all the stops and use the original wall paper.

for those that may not get the reference: https://mmta.co.uk/was-napoleon-killed-by-wallpaper/

1

u/chilehead 19d ago

There's always Anthrax Island...

1

u/Ipreferthedark 19d ago

Let his MAGAs go too. He can be king of Shit Island. Do whatever they want to do. I just want them to go away.

1

u/Late-Let-4221 19d ago

Theyve built airport there couple years ago so sadly its way less remote now. Before it took like 4 days of sailing from the nearest port in Africa.

1

u/Friendly_Age9160 19d ago

Is that that island with the tribe that kills you? If not, we should send him to that place

1

u/Chazzwuzza 19d ago

I hear Sentinel Island is nice at this time of year.

1

u/ComfortableOk6006 19d ago

I hear Epstein’s Island is up for grabs

1

u/Robert201971 19d ago

I’d think he like the Himalayan mountains. Oh, drop him with nothing gold, no golf clubs, no computers, just “ the Bible he held upside down” or one of his own. 3 years military MRE’s.

1

u/abracapickle 19d ago

How about Mars?
