As bad as Trump is, he isn’t championing and encouraging extrajudicial killings (at least not yet) like Duterte
He IS praising Duterte for it, though. As you implied yourself, Trump getting back in the white house will guarantee extrajudicial killings. Probably as a matter of stated policy rather than just something cops aren’t discouraged from.
