GOP base FTW!

It is what it is. Many people will worry more about a candidate’s DUI conviction than his opponent’s mistreatment of a POW. There’s always a sentiment in any nation fighting against insurgents that would like to just throw out the rules of war and brutalize the enemy into submission. Of course that tactic often backfires in real life, which is why most militaries do not adopt it.
