Donald Trump’s son Eric Trump on Monday night defended his father’s comments during the latest debate that he would “bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding,” arguing that the interrogation technique is similar to what happens on college campuses.
Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren asked Eric Trump what his father would do beyond waterboarding.
“You see these terrorists that are flying planes into buildings, right? You see our cities getting shot up in California. You see Paris getting shot up,” Eric Trump responded. “And then somebody complains when a terrorist gets waterboarded, which quite frankly is no different than what happens on college campuses and frat houses every day.”
“The man would keep this country safe. There is no question about it,” Eric Trump added, referring to his father.
Donald Trump on Sunday defended his support for the form of torture, telling CNN that he has “no doubt that it does work.”
