Summary

Donald Trump criticized President Biden’s decision to commute the sentences of 37 federal death row inmates, calling them “violent criminals” and wishing them to go to hell.

Trump also took the opportunity to sarcastically wish a “Merry Christmas” to Chinese troops in the Panama Canal and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Trump’s post also included references to his previous attempts to purchase Greenland and his suggestion that Wayne Gretzky run for Canadian Prime Minister.

    This seems like a classic “Either/or” logical fallacy.

    Related to your dog example (from what I’ve read over the years), execution is not more cost effective than permanent confinement. In human society, this is mostly due to the legal costs of running a capital sentence through a lengthy appeals process.

    Your original post did not mention cost effectiveness, it just asked about support for a death penalty. Regardless of cost, my stance is in the last paragraph of my original post: that permanent confinement is a more suitable punishment.
