He never had me fooled. The only thing we shared common ground on was defeating the Soviet Union. The Dems were sympathic to the communists. Powell, being a General, supported Reagan’s approach of ending the cold war.
He was for preferences for his skin color tribe. He was for the welfare state (a socialist). He was always threatening Republicans that if they reformed anything, he would join the Dems. It was really disgusting. After we brought down the Soviets, he disappeared. He joined the Dems.
