Administration Officials Should Be Tortured

[TheCount]

While some have recommended that lie detector tests should be used to certify the loyalty of those who are working in the White House, this is only an ineffective half-measure. Lie detector tests are inaccurate and can be beaten.

What has yet to be suggested is something that Trump himself hit on early on during his presidential campaign and its implementation is something which could be considered as fulfilling a campaign promise: Torture. As Trump himself has said, torture works:

"I've spoken as recently as twenty-four hours ago, with people at the highest level of intelligence, and I asked them the question," Trump said.

"Does it work? Does torture work? And the answer was yes. Absolutely."

Therefore, the solution is clear: Everyone working in the White House should be tortured. First, prior to beginning their employment in their White House, and then after that at regular yet unpredictable intervals. For positions which require the confirmation of the senate, torture should take place prior to hearings, and recordings and summaries of the torture should be provided to the appropriate committees. Immediate implementation of this plan would allow Trump to detect the source of the anonymous op-ed in the short term and prevent future disloyalty in the long term.

Unleash the RICO act and the network will unravel.

I am pro-torture, and pro-atomic war, too. Look at my post history.
The tactics of war are neutral.
It is whether the war is just, or not.

Why is torture worse than killing someones husband, or mother?
How is torture worse than permanently blinding or paralyzing someone?
How about the millions of rapes that occur during war.
How about the killed puppies, and pets?

They are all realistic tragedies of war. Blown off arms and fire scarred faces for life.

I once heard Ron Paul say, we should "declare war, and finish it fast, or not go at all", this was about the 2003 Iraq invasion, IIRC. I was like "WTF!?"

But I understand now.

When a people become convinced, it is their duty to disarm you, and make you bend to their will, it is your duty to fight them back, and to destroy them, and their minions, without mercy.

Boo hoo. War sucks. We get it. That doesn't give you any kind of moral superiority, knave.

And you wonder why nobody is taking you seriously.

Let's hope you are not being satiric and are quite serious!
Trump, if he did this, for good or ill, he'd literally be impeached
if the staff who resigns EN MASSE makes the case that this all does
violate the "cruel and unusual" punishments clause of the U.S
CONSTITUTION! Not even LBJ did that to his loyal staff!!!

THE WORST OF THIS IS... THIS IS BASICALLY HOW BLACKWATER IS RUN.

[Aratus]

Anyone familiar with GUY FAWLKES and what almost transpired on a FIFTH of NOVEMBER???
When the plot failed, JAMES I&VI personally supervised the racking of poor GUY in the Tower.

[Aratus]

Needless to say...GUY suffered in pain rather than snitching to the stolid Beefeaters
around him. He did not name more names, other than the sad few they already knew.

Anyone with any sense at all has known for years that the rationale for Iraq was entirely bull$#@!.
