Since September, Trump has killed 80+ suspected drug smugglers by blowing up their boats.

But now he's "decided to pardon one of the biggest cocaine traffickers of them all".

Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández was sentenced to 45 years for conspiring to import 500,000 kilos of cocaine into the US.

Trump wants Hernández's party to win the Honduran election.
