Trump praises China for executing drug dealers: 'I appreciate that very much'

Donald Trump has praised China for its policy of executing drug dealers.

In a speech at the Rx Drug Abuse and Heroin Summit in Atlanta on Wednesday, the president turned to China while talking about the country’s plans to upgrade the criminal status of fentanyl saying: ‘They’re gonna make it a major crime. It’s not a crime now. It’s down as an industrial drug, and they’re gonna make it a crime.”

He then added that he ‘appreciates’ the country’s policy of executing the dealers of drugs.

“They’re going to charge people with the highest level of crime,’ he told the audience at the summit. ‘And in China, unlike in our country, the highest level of crime is very, very high. It’s the ultimate. You pay the ultimate price. So I appreciate that very much.”

China is one of at least four countries Amnesty International listed as executing criminals for drug-related offences in a 2017 report. Amnesty International estimates the number of drug-related executions in the country to be in the thousands, but cannot confirm that number, as China’s executions are considered a state secret.

Trump has been repeating this falsehood since December, and the media is still failing to correct him.
 
Yeah trump is a big dump that needs to be flushed
 
Put a bullet in the back of every drug dealer and drug users head like in china thats what my mum always used to say to me knowing full well I do drugs to lol
 
One practical reason it wouldn't work in the US is the amount of guns. Why the fuck would I surrender when your going to execute me? Blaze of glory
 
Anyone lacing heroin with fentanyl does deserve the death penalty... this wont lower drug use or distribution wjatsoever..but its just.

Trump's too stupid to realize China has like a million loopholes and analogues. If he knew how to read and had any interest in policy he might know thatt. Shocking how stupid and uninformed a leader can be....as long as he keeps bashing Mexicans America will love him while they all die of fentsnyl
