Colin Powell rips Trump, would tell hotel workers to stay home
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/8/15 | PAUL BEDARD

Posted on 07/08/2015 7:18:24 PM PDT by jimbo123

Unprovoked, former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell Wednesday night slammed GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump's focus on barring illegal immigrants.

At a Library of Congress lecture conference to promote bipartisanship, he said, "I would like to go to every Trump hotel and ask all the employees not to show up tomorrow. They'd be nobody there, they're immigrants."

And how is hospitality staff staying at home and missing out on a day’s pay supposed to damage a billionaire and not themselves?

Seems Pee Wee Herman made two phone calls. One to Donald to try to get him to shut up. When that didn’t work he was instructed to call Colon Bowel to spread some crap.

Let’s see how the Bowel responds to a bit of blowback from Donald.

Anyone care to bet how long it will take the Colonoscopy to cry racism?

True. But then again, so is Trump.

Then again? Trump didn't have to do this. He's lost money doing it. He doesn't need fame or money. He has all that.

If the workers don’t show up for work - Trump will point his finger and say, “You’re fired!” He’ll just replace them. No problem for him. Colin Powell must be feeling ignored now that zero is in the home stretch to vacate the WH. No one is paying any attention to him. WAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Has this general ever returned to his Democrat roots? Or is he still masquerading? Alma never left her attachment to “the democracy”.

Powell is a real pain in the ass. Overrated too!

******

Powell is the supposedly highly-respected former leader who endorsed liar and fraud Obama for president just because Obama was black.

I have no use for him anymore, and I don't respect anything he has to say about anything anymore.

Sadly, he is quick to jump all over Trump, but he had no time to carefully examine the background of liar and fraud presidential candidate Obama.

Again, I have no use for him. He should keep his mouth shut and go back into retirement and stay there.

If they stay home, how will their families eat, back in Puerto Rico?

They are legal immigrants of a territory, of the U.S.

If Powell disagrees with you, you must be doing something right.

Whether you like Trump or not you have to appreciate the fact he’s forcing the RINOS out in the open and exposing them as the frauds they are.
