Former President Donald Trump previewed a key campaign policy during his Tuesday night speech announcing his run for president in 2024: give the death penalty to certain drug dealers.
“We’re going to be asking everyone who sells drugs, gets caught selling drugs, to receive the death penalty for their pain,” Trump remarked at his Mar-a-Lago residence. He was apparently referring to dealers of the synthetic opioid fentanyl, which has caused hundreds of thousands of overdoses in recent years.
