Did Gregory ask him why he has not changed parties? He stays as a pubbie so he can criticize as ‘one who knows’.
Sans,
Believe it or not, that’s exactly the question Gregory asked that set Powell off on his rant.
But then Gregory just sat there, completely mute, and let Powell talk.
There must have been a half dozen points where Gregory needed to stop Powell with a question or a challenge, but complete zip.
Powell said things like “I voted for 7 straight Republicans” and “This is no longer the Party of Reagan and GHW Bush.”
But not once did he explain why he “stays” in the GOP.
