I mean the DOJ would hate that, they would have to clear all those guards (who are just fucked) and the prison in general would just not live up to security standards they would require. This would end up like a cartel boss going in, they would have to make a place and then the SS would be the guards.

That behind-the-scenes conversation [...] focused only on how to move and protect Mr. Trump if the judge were to order him briefly jailed for contempt in a courthouse holding cell, the people said.
Well, that's disappointing.
The far more substantial challenge — how to safely incarcerate a former president if the jury convicts him and the judge sentences him to prison rather than home confinement or probation — has yet to be addressed directly
It can't be probation, he'll just violate it constantly.

Guantanamo Bay seems pretty secure already. Why not just send him there?
