Since he has consistently said he would not only use waterboarding but “things that are much worse” as forms of torture against detainees, it certainly should come as no surprise that Donald Trump also wants to scrap the Geneva Conventions because they’re out of date.





And while that’s a career-ending moment for normal candidates in normal parties in normal election cycles, in Trump’s case, it wasn’t the only notable exchange from this morning’s event.

TRUMP: I think everything’s is out of date. We have a whole new world.

Pressed further, Trump added, “I am a person that believes in enhanced interrogation, yes. And by the way, it works.”

In reality, it doesn’t “work” at all, but Trump too often doesn’t seem to care about pesky details like facts and evidence. (When the Senate Intelligence Committee examined the Bush/Cheney administration’s “enhanced interrogation techniques,” investigators found torture was ineffective, illegal, brutal, and “provided extensive inaccurate information.” Trump, in other words, has no idea what he’s talking about.)
