You're half right. Death penalty, yes, "swift", no. In front of the Court House, at High Noon, the penalty for Treason is Drawing and Quartering...
You wouldn't have to do it more than once an election, since even Democrats, as dim as they are, will remember one of their own. You will have to do it quickly, tho, since, if you wait too long, Dims will not be able to equate the crime with the punishment, due to new stuff crowding out the old stuff in their limited memory.
I agree. But what I meant by ‘swift’ was no tarrying or dilly-dallying. Convict and take the prisoner to the execution grounds for immediate dispensing of sentence.
