Saddam Hussein's Daughter Endorses Donald Trump

Donald Trump has received an unlikely endorsement – from Saddam Hussein’s daughter.

Raghad Hussein said she respected the US President-elect for his ‘high level of political sensibility’. She also praised him for opposing the Iraq War and claimed he ‘exposed the mistakes of others’.

In her first interview since Saddam was hanged ten years ago, she defended her father as a ‘hero’ even though he had ordered the execution of her husband.

Raghad said the former Iraqi dictator – who was captured by US special forces hiding in a hole at a remote farm in 2003 – died an ‘honourable’ death which made her feel proud.

Trump has said that Saddam brought stability to Iraq, even though he brutally oppressed his own people.

Speaking to the CNN news channel, Saddam’s 48-year-old eldest daughter, said: "He [Trump] exposed the mistakes of the others, specifically in terms of Iraq, which means he is very aware of the mistakes made in Iraq and what happened to my father."
