Please cite the relevant articles in the Constitution that you are talking about.

He actually put his foot in this one (again). He said that he had stated early on that he was against the war, and that he said as much to Howard Stern. So of course the media checked the Howard Stern show transcripts, and got a clip of Trump stating he was in favor of the Iraq War.

Like Trump said--he could shoot people in the middle of NYC and his loyal fans would still believe everything he says. He has his own little North Korea propaganda thing going on. Dear Leader and all.

Hey, it goes along with the story that Obama opposes/interrogating terrorists.

Time to do something different.

Do you think otherwise?

Do you agree with Trump that it is a good idea to execute radical Islamic terrorists with "bullets dipped in pigs blood"?
I answered your question. Will you answer mine, please?

The 5th and 14th about due process. Right after 9/11 we sent some American/Muslim citizens to GTMO without due process and that throwing is out the Constitution. You and Trump are more than willing to do that in an epic scale. You both don't care about the Geneva Conventions, either, which makes you no better than the scum-bags we're supposed to be fighting.

I didn't answer the question because it's ridiculous. Trump never said he wanted to kill terrorists with bullets dipped in pigs blood.

He did say the USA should start getting tough with them.

Due process does not apply when fighting war. Capture a terrorist and haul them into court, then you have due process via those passages.

Obama, Clinton and Bush have all called it war.

The UN Geneva Conventions apply during wars. What's your excuse for you and Trump wanting to turn the US military into ISIS-like barbarians during war?
