Donald Trump’s Son Says Waterboarding Is No Different Than Fraternity Hazing
If you thought the Don and his family would go quietly into the night after Iowa, you just haven’t been paying attention to much of anything have you? Not just this presidential campaign. I’m talking decades of Trumps doing Trump things. This is the same guy who took on the NFL — successfully for a few years, mind you — before his ego got the best of him. Should have stuck to spring football, my man. But rolling over just isn’t his style. He takes everything head on, and so do his sons.
So is it any surprise that we have back-to-back Trump stories tonight? Not at all. They’re revving the engines on this whole campaign thing. His son Eric has been hitting the media circuit on behalf of his old man, and the topic of waterboarding terrorists naturally came about — as it does from time to time.

Tell ’em, Eric.
This is day one, welcome to the shit, fraternity baptism for 90% of the south. Come hell week, pledges are begging to be waterboarded. It’s one of the more humane techniques in the pledge process and, frankly, a little too vanilla and easy on terrorists. Let some sick, sadistic, former pledge master unleash some real hazing on these motherfuckers and we’d shut down ISIS by tomorrow. Looking at you, Jon Hamm. You beautiful, psychotic, light-pledges-on-fire, cheeky bastard..

10 years ago at 10:16 pmYou know, I get it that this is a satire site, but lets not let our egos get the best of here for a sec. While a decent pledge trainer knows a bit about mindfucking, there are guys in the deep dark echelons of the government and elite branches of the military who have been baptized in the fires of combat that know a little something about inflicting pain and suffering. Let some guys from a Tier 1 unit have some alone time with some fucker they snatched in the middle of the night and then it’ll be quite evident how efficient their methods of procuring intel are.
10 years ago at 10:27 pmI don’t think you truly get that this is satire judging by your reply…
10 years ago at 11:16 pmEven John McCain, an American hero, is adamantly against waterboarding (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvjn5cKQHQg). He knows from his time as a P.O.W. in Vietnam that it’s bullshit and doesn’t work. Having Trump’s kid equate it with the Greek system doesn’t do us any favors.
10 years ago at 2:45 amMcCain isn’t a hero, he and Kerry are hated by Nam vets for blocking investigations to find more MIA…and some people even say he told his captors pretty much everything. He is a veteran, nothing more.
10 years ago at 11:57 pmMake the mistake (or genius decision, you crazy bastards) of putting Eric Trump on your exec board and suddenly hazing will have a mortality rate…which may or may not be a good thing for publicity.

10 years ago at 11:56 pmNot sure about that.
10 years ago at 3:09 pmwater boarding is now on my list for pledge ship TFM
10 years ago at 2:53 amYou mean this isn’t implemented in your pledge training already?
10 years ago at 10:02 amYeah because pledges are totally equivalent to ISIS/AQ shitbags
