2-8-16  “Do we want a President who will violate the law?”
McCain pointed out that waterboarding, an interrogation technique that is outlawed under the Geneva Conventions, was among the forms of torture that the Senate voted 93-3 to outlaw last summer.
Trump enthusiastically voiced support for torturing terrorist suspects during Saturday’s Republican debate, saying he would “bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding” if elected President. He repeated the claim on Monday, saying waterboarding works “in terms of information and other things.”
According to McCain, the information gathered by subjecting suspects to simulated drowning is often flat-out inaccurate.
