Former Secretary of State Colin Powell reportedly had some harsh words for Donald Trump, calling the Republican nominee a "national disgrace" and an "international pariah," according to personal emails seen by Buzzfeed News .
In an email sent June 17 to Emily Miller, a journalist and former aide to Powell, the former secretary of State also said the Republican nominee "is in the process of destroying himself."
"No need for Dems to attack him," the email said, according to Buzzfeed.
"Paul Ryan is calibrating his position again," he said of the speaker of the House.
Powell also slammed the Republican nominee for promoting the birther movement regarding President Obama.
Yup, the whole birther movement was racist, Powell wrote in an email from Aug. 21, 2016.
Thats what the 99% believe. When Trump couldnt keep that up he said he also wanted to see if the certificate noted that he was a Muslim, the email said.
As I have said before, What if he was? Muslims are born as Americans everyday, Powell wrote to his former aide.
In another email from July 21, 2015, Powell said Trump had "no sense of shame," in response to an article about Trump giving out the cellphone number of Sen. Lindsey Graham. Powell also called it a "celebrification of society."
“Brilliant. Thanks for reaffirming yourself as an affirmative action hire”
Bump!
They are scared...their illicit gravy train is about to be derailed!
Says the man who endorsed Obama.
He supported and voted for Obama
Nough said
Colon Bowel is an Obama supporter and a squishy RINO.
Overrated State Department hack. But I repeat myself.
His mama named him after the wrong organ. He should’ve been called Anus Powell.
Oh nooees what will the world think of us?
let’s see Hilllary idd about him and threw him under the bis and he doesn’t like Trump. That makes sense.
It never fails. No matter how these entitlement welfare affirmative action types get smeared, raped or shot in their own Hillary ghettos, they still will root for their entitlement master and the biscuits. They have no self respect and pride, just groveling.
Yeah, Powell's prediction didn't turn out to be very accurate, did it?
Real leadership takes more courage than he could muster.
Agreed, he’s the last person I’d want supporting me.
Colin Powell knows how to stay on the porch.
Powell might want to defibrillate Hillary on that one.
lied
Powell was a disgrace long before scooter Libby . Never forget he kept silent about Clinton refusing to send the equipment that was requested before black hawk down . Hillary is not the first Clinton to abandon our military .
Didn’t he convince Bush Sr. to stop the attack on Iraq while we were kicking serious ass?
What a disappointment this race whore has become.
Still a slave.
