Trump also said he would monitor Muslim-majority neighborhoods in America like the police monitor gang activity.
"They can chop off heads and drown people in cages, heavy steel cages, and we can't waterboard?" Trump said to CNN's Wolf Blitzer during a phone-in interview Wednesday afternoon.
"Look, we have to change our law on you know on the waterboarding thing, where they can chop off heads and drown people in cages and heavy steel cages and we can't waterboard. We have to change our laws and we have to be able to fight at least on almost equal basis. We have laws that we have to obey in terms of torture. They have no laws whatsoever they have to obey," Trump said.

Trump can say it because he knows even if he were to be elected and carry out waterboarding, he'd be able to do so with impunity.
It's not as if some in Congress wouldn't support it. Some of the same ones that supported it under Bush would support it under a Trump presidency.
Sadly, America is not above torture.
