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."

I take it that you never served in the military and don’t respect his lifelong military service?

-- At a Library of Congress lecture conference to promote bipartisanship ... --

Code for "to promote the uniparty ..."

It would be funny if Trump just ignored this one. I wonder if Trump is wise enough to figure out that the PTB is going to try to overwhelm him with bait.

-- "Unprovoked"? I think not; he was "provoked" by his puppet masters to denounce Trump. --

I think so too. He's programmed to follow orders. In over his head with the crowd he's hanging out with.

“...a conference to promote bipartisanship.”

A conference to promote keeping people asleep.

He’s pro-abortion. That makes him a monster, not a member of Western Civilization, unfit for any public office.

What a classic image. The expression on Powell’s face begs to be captioned.

The media’s favorite republican. One that hates republicans and loves to shout it from the hill tops every chance he gets.

Google search “powell farrakhan” for photos of Colon palling around with Calypso Louie. If a prominent Republican was photoed with Louie’s opposite number the scandal would never end.

Colin Powell...another repulsive example of how racial tribalism can turn even the most accomplished republicans into total pieces of Obama-supporting crap.

Never served in the military. Have great respect for our men in uniform. However I know a back stabbing skunk when I see one.

I stopped liking him at all when he talked Bush 41 into NOT allowing Gen. Swartzkoff to take out Saddam and win the Gulf War. ......That decision led to thousands of fatalities and deaths of American military service personnel later on.

Trump is making all the right enemies. Every time one of roaches comes out against him, more American citizens support him. Keep it up, boys. You’re exposing yourselves.

I’d compare him more to Arlen Specter than Reagan.

Reagan never use eminent domain against old people to enrich himself.

Trump will be remembered as the greatest self-promoter we ever had.

The Democrats are that nervous that they bring out stupid old Colin Powell and have him say ridiculous things. Do millennials even know who he is?
