HALIFAX, Nova Scotia (AP) — A leading Republican voice on national security matters said Saturday he doesn’t care what President-elect Donald Trump says, the United States will not reinstate waterboarding.
Sen. John McCain of Arizona, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, said at the Halifax International Security Forum that any attempt to bring back harsh interrogation techniques such as waterboarding, which simulates drowning, would quickly be challenged in court.
“I don’t give a damn what the president of the United States wants to do or anybody else wants to do. We will not waterboard. We will not do it,” McCain said to applause during a panel discussion.

you are now toothless, mc cain. go ahead and rage against the coming of the day.
These RINO republicans were Obama’s butt-boys for almost 8 years.
But when it comes to the impending Trump presidency they have suddenly rediscovered their backbones.
We can make captives with intel listen to McAinal, Clintoon, Schumer and Dirty Harry condemn America until the captives ask for mercy and tell all their secrets.
Sounds like McLame doesn’t want to win a war any more than he wants to win a presidential election. The man just seems to love losing.
When did John McCain become President-Elect?!?
[I don’t give a damn what the president of the United States wants to do]
What a sorry example we have in the Senate with JOHN MCCAIN.
Trump to McCain. When I need “S” out of you, I’ll squeeze your lips.
Water board McNutCase. Wash his so called brain out.
Shut your trap, McCain. You don’t get to order your future Commander In Chief to do anything.
The nerve of that guy...
Ambassador Stevens walking alongside McCain in that top photo. Wow.
Some of our own troops are water-boarded as part of their training.
McCain won’t waterboard anyone. But he will destroy entire nations and help Wahhabi terrorist regimes exterminate Christians living in the Middle East. He’s a war criminal.
FU, old man.
So. The GOP senator who fights tooth and nail vs Republicans but won’t even raise his voice against a dem — is going to keep Trump on a short leash? Uh-huh.
Yeah, I noticed that too.
He is a powerless, toothless old liberal. Trump needs to roll the SOB hard.
