Thanks to Congress, there is no President that can close the place down, unless they can figure out a way to do so with spending $0 (noting that it is illegal to do work for the feds for free) and not transferring the people held there anywhere.

I thought about it when taking a dump a moment ago, and it came to me bright as day. First he would abolish the Fed, crash economy, then abolish the dollar itself and replace it with gold and silver nuggets and then spend 0 $ but instead 5g 9s on closing that place down. No more Dollar, no more Dollar spent on that item
