Trump calls for death penalty for NYC terror suspect,
considers him an 'enemy combatant'.

President Donald Trump called for the New York City terror suspect to get the death penalty in a late-night tweet Wednesday just hours after Sayfullo Saipov was charged with providing support to ISIS and violence and destruction of motor vehicles.

Trump referenced Saipov's request to hang an ISIS flag in his hospital room, an anecdote relayed by authorities Wednesday afternoon, and said he "SHOULD GET DEATH PENALTY!" in all capital letters.

Earlier in the afternoon, Trump raised the possibility of sending the alleged perpetrator to Guantanamo Bay prison. The White House press secretary said the administration considers him to be an "enemy combatant."

"I believe we would consider this person to be an enemy combatant," Sarah Sanders said in response to questioning at Wednesday's White House press briefing.

As an "enemy combatant," Saipov, the suspect in the attack, could face an altered interrogation and prosecution process.

Trump earlier condemned the United States criminal justice system and labeled Saipov an "animal."

"We have to come up with punishment that's far quicker and far greater than the punishment these animals are getting right now," Trump said. He added: "What we have right now is a joke" before responding affirmatively when asked if he wanted the alleged assailant to be sent to the Cuban prison notorious for housing alleged terrorists and enemy combatants.

"I would certainly consider it. Send him to Gitmo," he said, using a nickname for Guantanamo Bay. "I would certainly consider it."

The president further signaled his intention to "terminate the diversity lottery program," the visa lottery under which Saipov was admitted from Uzbekistan seven years ago. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed Saipov utilized the program Wednesday. Trump said he would be asking Congress to "get rid of" the policy in favor of a "merit-based program."

He wanted an ISIS flag hanging in his hospital room?

I don't agree with the death penalty in general, for obvious reasons, but this man deliberately planned an attack which killed 8 people, seriously injured 12 and he was caught in the act. If he received 8 life sentences he would never see the light of day again anyway.

If there is proof beyond any shadow of a doubt that someone is guilty of such crimes I don't see why they should be granted the luxury of being fed and housed for the rest of their life at the taxpayers' expense.

Trump really needs to stop this childish uncontrolled tweeting though. I read earlier that Trump's tweet outbursts could, in fact, be used by Saipov's lawyers to prove that he will not get a fair trial and thus he could receive a more lenient sentence.

dear Orchid,
just hang em and hang em high.
No more pussy footing around.

Well reform is unlikely especially with him wanting his ISIS flag next to his bed

What should we do with people who are unlikely to be reformed and commit horrific crimes? Paedophiles should be in the same category.

I don't think he should have said that publicly either. His Twitter account was suspended for 10 minutes lol
