text: Oh course Trump would admire Saddam Hussain's policy for dealing with terrorists and dissent. Trumps proposals of lots of torture, going after family members, and massive indiscriminate reprisals, are taken straight out of Saddam Hussain's playbook, and have long been the tactics of murderous right-wing dictators, many of whom Trump appears quite publicly to admire. Metaphorically, they are similar to his cut throat business practices, except as President, he could actually torture and murder people. Heady stuff for someone like Trump.
