Twisted Trump Monday

1cU.S. Republican White House front-runner Donald Trump said on Sunday he would be open to harsh measures to deal with the threat from Islamic State, including going beyond the controversial interrogation tactic known as waterboarding.

In an interview on ABC’s “This Week” program, Trump discussed reviving the tactic and implementing other interrogation techniques, pointing to the recent beheadings of Christians in the Middle East as evidence of the need for stronger interrogation methods for suspected operatives of extremist groups.

“We’re like living in medieval times,” he said. “If I have to do it and if it’s up to me, I would absolutely bring back waterboardng. And if it’s going to be tougher than waterboarding, I would bring that back, too.”

When pressed by interviewer George Stephanopoulos if that meant the United States employing similar methods of beheading captors, Trump responded: “We’re going to do things beyond waterboarding,” adding, “Perhaps, if that happens to come.”

      Trump don’t need no stinking convention, he owns a Convention Center.
      Waterboarding daily on the mezzanine for not paying the bill, just a short step to grilling them maybe terrists.

    Since it is a murder of crows it must be a battery of magpies that I saw; there were certainly a lot of them.

    Later a field rabbit and still later the California to Persian Gulf direct flight. Big airplane.

    Day 2: 44 minutes.

        I had to cook, naturally. Made a batch of breaded, boneless chicken thighs. Pete cam over so he lucked out, GREAT meal with the two sides. Now the freezer is restocked with a half dozen breaded chicken pieces. For emergencies. Can make potatoes and a veggie and thaw out some of the chicken. Thinking ahead.
