He gave an anecdote where he was talking with Xi Jinping and asked why China doesn't have a drug problem... The answer, according to Trump, was "fast trials"... Trial and execution in one day...
First, China does have a drug problem, especially in the South, but it's nowhere near what we see in the West...
Secondly, although China does execute drug traffickers and dealers (rightly so) they certainly don't engage in this fast trial nonsense.... The trials last anywhere from a day to a week to several months, and even if found guilty the defendant has the right to appeal once...Appeals take roughly a year, and if the sentence is not overturned the execution usually takes place within a month...
It's a bizarre thing to claim... That someone as knowledgeable of the law as Xi Jinping would make such an absurd statement....

Hit a Pelosi with a hammer and that's a fast trial and execution. Drugs? Murder a republican? Not even bail money is required.
