Graham then suggested that Trump may actually be watching the hearing and seemed to address him directly, saying, "If you start waterboarding people, you may get impeached."

Trump has said multiple times in the past that he believes waterboarding works as a method of interrogation.

He has also been quoted as telling Fox News, "... torture is real torture, OK? Waterboarding is — I'm sure it's not pleasant, but waterboarding was just short of torture."
