Donald Trump signs executive order on the death penalty

If there’s one thing Donald Trump promised ahead of his second term as President of the United States, it was ruthless efficiency as it pertains to fulfilling the promises that got him elected.

As such, it can hardly come as a surprise that Trump – who was sworn in just two days ago, on Monday, January 20 – has already moved to sign into effect several executive orders.

The 78-year-old officially became the US’s 47th president earlier this week, having previously held the position between 2017 and 2021. And while much can be said regarding Trump’s policies and attitude towards… well, just about anything, no one can accuse him of resting on his laurels.

A whole host of executive orders – those which aren’t required to be approved by Congress – have already been signed, including one focusing on the death penalty.
