                                                                     Torture Works
     What is water boarding? Waterboarding is a form of torture where a cloth is covering a persons face and water is being dumped on them so they feel like they are drowning. In this article Donald      Trump is stating his strong conservative view on how terrorist should be punished. He is a big supporter and believes that this kind of torture is the answer for interrogation when dealing with certain situations. He made it crystal clear that if he wins the presidential election he will be enforcing techniques like water boarding and probably worse on our enemies.
     I personally don't think that "torturing" someone for answers is the right thing to do. "They're chopping off our heads in the Middle East," Trump said. "They want to kill us, they want to kill us. They want to kill our country. They want to knock out our cities. And don't tell me it doesn't work — torture works. Okay, folks?" Just because another country is doing something worse to us doesn't mean we should retaliate in a way of harming another person back. I agree with trump that something should be done but is hurting someone the right way to do it?
      This ties in with what we are learning about because we have been talking about the election and campaigning process. Donald trump answered questions during this campaign at Town Hall in Bluffton, SC. doing his best to show off what he's going to do to help our country and to help his results on the polls.

  1. Elaborate more on elections and campaigns. You need about 3-4 sentences to show me that you know what you know. Be more specific.
