WATCH: CIA director would defy Trump waterboarding order

In apparent reference to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s statement in support of waterboarding suspected terrorists, CIA Director John Brennan said he would resign rather than implement the practice.

“I can say that as long as I’m director of CIA, irrespective of what the president says, I’m not going to be the director of CIA that gives that order. They’ll have to find another director,” said Brennan.
