Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton’s markedly different responses to today’s terrorist attacks in Brussels offer a preview of how the two front-runners would clash over national security and immigration in the general election.

Clinton swiftly condemned the attacks. At least 30 people were killed and dozens more injured in bombings at the international airport in Brussels and a subway station in the city.

“Today Americans stand in solidarity with our European allies,” Clinton said in a statement. “These terrorists seek to undermine the democratic values that are the foundation of our alliance and our way of life, but they will never succeed.”

Trump’s campaign did not issue a formal response to the attacks. But in an appearance on NBC’s TODAY show this morning, the real estate mogul called Brussels a “total mess.” He also doubled down on his support for using waterboarding and other forms of torture on terrorists suspects.

Most Americans see Obama as Dishonest, Untrustworthy


That may explain why Trump's base does not see Obama as a follower of Christianity.

Trump declines to correct man who says Obama is Muslim

I'm not against torture for the bleeding heart reasons, I just don't see how it really helps most of the time, it could in certain cases, but that's the thing, how am I to know who they are torturing and why? How about you just don't let them in the country to begin with, then you don't have to torture anyone - crazy I know.

Yea it is quite crazy thought. How can we work with them if we don't let them in for intervention meetings?

Sometimes we can but we can't always afford to send our AIPAC funded electeds to harm's way to workout the details.

Trump saying they want to "get whitey" or "get Muricans" makes more sense and is closer to non intervention than this "way of life" BS from Clinton.
