Trump: Saddam ‘a Bad Guy But He Did One Thing Well, He Killed Terrorists’

‘I said it very strongly, bad person, okay? Now it’s over’

RUSH EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "So look, listen, last night I said — and it was an unbelievable crowd in North Carolina, standing ovations all over the place. But I said, bad guy, Saddam Hussein, bad guy. I said again, Saddam Hussein is a bad guy. But he did one thing well, he killed terrorists. Right? That’s okay. Just a quick statement. But I wanted to emphasize, because I know if I didn’t emphasize they would say I liked Saddam Hussein. So I said it times bad, bad, bad. So what happened, somewhat happened, I said it very strongly, bad person. Okay. Now it’s over."
