Donald Trump on waterboarding: ‘If it doesn’t work, they deserve it anyway.’

This is a dangerous man.Well, I don't really think that he is that dangerous. It's the hatred, bigotry, racism, and the like that he emboldens in others that is the real danger.

We've all known that there is a special kind of stupid present in the United States that is lacking in such profound abundance in other parts of the world. The only solace for me has been that for the most part people were ashamed to display such vile in such open forums before. In Donald Trump's mega-ego maniacal quest for riches, fame, and power he is willing to say things out loud that a sane person feeling these emotions would know to keep to their selves.

He's a Hitler with a nuclear warhead. He's a Jim Jones. He's a Bush with a brain.

"Would I approve waterboarding? You bet your ass I would —
in a heartbeat," Trump said to loud cheers during a rally at a
convention center here Monday night that attracted thousands. "And I
would approve more than that. Don't kid yourself, folks. It works, okay?
It works. Only a stupid person would say it doesn't work."

Trump
said such techniques are needed to confront terrorists who "chop off
our young people's heads" and "build these iron cages, and they'll put
20 people in them and they drop them in the ocean for 15 minutes and
pull them up 15 minutes later."

"It works," Trump said
over and over again. "Believe me, it works. And you know what? If it
doesn't work, they deserve it anyway, for what they're doing. It works."
