Source:"You know, it's very tough to beat enemies that don't have any, that don't have any restrictions, all right? We have these massive restrictions. Now, I will always abide by the law, but I would like to have the law expanded," Trump said.
"I happen to think that when you're fighting an enemy that chops off heads, I happen to think that we should use something that's stronger than we have right now. Right now, basically, waterboarding is essentially not allowed, as I understand it. ... I would certainly like it to be, at a minimum, at a minimum to allow that."
Trump discounted the argument that if the U.S. military used waterboarding, captured American soldiers and hostages could be subjected to worse treatment.
"They're doing that anyway. They're killing our soldiers when they capture 'em. I mean, they're doing that anyway. Now, if that were the case - in other words, we won't do it and you don't do it, but we're not playing by those rules. What, did somebody tell ISIS, 'Look, we're going to treat your guys well; will you please do us a favor and treat our guys well?' They don't do that. We're not playing by - we are playing by rules but they have no rules. It's very hard to win when that's the case," Trump said.
When Dickerson asked if rules are what "separates us from the savages," Trump said he didn't think so.
Do you think this is humane? I'm very mixed on this for several reasons, mainly because they're terrorists and have killed people.
What exactly is water-boarding?

All you do by stooping to the level of terrorists is either become terrorists yourself or lose whatever you're trying to fight for.
Using "well, THEY use terror tactics!" as a reason to abandon all your ideals.. might as well up and join them, because you're doing their work anyway.

I voted 'other' because all we can do at this point is accept that Trump is going to say whatever outrageous thing he wants to say.

Well they're killing us, why should we let them live without any form of consequence? Originally Posted by Vanyali

Is this really surprising? Trump's already said we should kill the families of terrorists.

Because torture is bad, inefficient, and illegal. We already kill the ones that try to kill us, why should we torture the ones that we don't kill? Originally Posted by TheramoreIsTheBomb

Every time Donald Trump suggests America should start doing things that are illegal and/or unconstitutional...his poll numbers go up.
Makes me wonder if maybe Donald Trump isn't the real problem.“The biggest communication problem is we do not listen to understand. We listen to reply,” Stephen Covey.

Abides by the law, but would like the law expanded to allow torture, sue the press without proof of wrongdoing (you can already sue the press with proof of wrongdoing) expel Muslims from the country and kill innocent civilians.
I'm fairly sure this is textbook Lawful Evil.

At least he's calling it 'torture' instead of trying to put the spin name on it.
