Again, you are using an ad hominem argument against Powell to say that people did NOT hear Meet the Press in 2007?
That’s not logical.
Powell said it, he had the eyewitness perspective from which to speak, and America (including Trump) did HEAR it.
You might not believe him, like him, respect him, or want your family to even associate with him, BUT that does not mean he did NOT say this.
The video PROVES he said it.
AND...it kills dead in its tracks the talking point that Trump made this up.
And let’s be honest - Powell is disliked here because he went against W and Bush fans hate that. He is hated and unpopular only amongst them. To the vast majority of the entire American population Powell is seen as a credible figure and a highly respected person.
Powell has shot off his mouth all OVER the place. SO WHAT? He is a liar! Since when does anything a lying liberal says become gospel truth?
