"If we capture any of them alive, they are getting a one-way ticket to Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, and we are going to find out everything they know." This was Marco Rubio's statement as he expressed his views on waterboarding during the most recent GOP debate which took place last January 14.

Presidential candidate Marco Rubio isn't the only one that is in favor of waterboarding as Donald Trump stated that, "Would I approve waterboarding? You bet your a-s I would -- in a heartbeat."

As per MSNBC, Trump added that he is confident enough to support waterboarding, "And I would approve more than that. Don't kid yourself, folks. It works, okay? It works. Only a stupid person would say it doesn't work."

Jeb Bush is also in favor of using torture to "enhance" the interrogation method as per Politico's report.

As for Governor Chris Christie on the other hand, when he was asked if waterboarding should be considered as a form of torture, he firmly answered, "I don't believe so. I don't believe so. And I will tell you that the intelligence officers who conducted that activity were told by the Justice Department that what they were doing was lawful and constitutional."

Christie added that the White House "demean and kill the morale" of Intelligence Agencies by abolishing the waterboarding method as per MSNBC's report.

As per Politico, Christie added that, "These are people doing a dangerous job in a dirty world, and we need to support them because they are the first line of defense between us and ISIS, between us and Al Qaeda."

All GOP candidates except Senator Ted Cruz are in favor of bringing back the waterboarding and other torture methods which were abolished by the Obama administration by implementing an anti-torture law.

For Ted Cruz however, the said method is no longer necessary. He also mentioned that performing torture to acquire information is "wrong."

Cruz stated, "We can defend our nation and be strong and uphold our values, there is a reason the bad guys engage in torture. ISIS engages in torture. Iran engages in torture. America does not need to torture to protect ourselves."

In response to Ted Cruz opinion on torture, Greg Sargent from The Washington Post stated, "We don't know exactly what Cruz means by "torture." Some on the right say they oppose torture but support waterboarding, as if there were some kind of meaningful distinction between the two. There isn't."
