He drives Volvos. You don’t need to know anything else about the man.

Anything what Colon Bowel has to say is a waste of bandwidth because it is so predictable and a non story.

Powell never was a Republican. He pretended to be to curry favor and high office during the Reagan and Bush administrations.

He is also a man without honor. He watched an innocent man, Scooter Libby, go to prison when he knew perfectly well the Plame leaker was his number two.

He’s behind Biden for two reasons: 1) he knows the risks of being on front of Biden, and; 2) That’s who he’s always been.

Because he is beholden to the deep-state, one world trifecta of globalism, socialism, and crony capitalism.

Exactly. He’s a disgraceful POS.

Colon bought stock in the nursing home that Hunter has selected for Creepy Uncle Joe.

I have Norman Schwarzkopf’s autobiography.

He speaks highly of Powell but during the war it became obvious that Powell was making no decisions at all. Schwarzkopf was going through the chain of command but Powell was simply a figurehead.

Schwarzkopf would ask Powell, Powell would ask Bush and Bush would always say OK.

Because President Trump is trying to undo the life’s work of Bush League Republicans, turning the country into North Mexico so it can be subsumed to the UN.

Is Powell preparing to be the VP nominee?

Is he about to come out as a woman?

i actually read powell’s book and firmly concluded that the only reason that he climbed the ladder of military promotion was pure affirmative action at every step ... from his book, it looked to me like powell was mediocre at every step of his career ... his book chronicled his various postings and promotions, but he never listed any actual accomplishments during those postings nor did he ever provide any explanations as to what he did to justify those promotions ...

Exactly. Powell didn’t even endorse those RINO kings McCain and Romney.

Nothing new here.... Powel said he was voting for Hillary in 2016. Neither of the Bushes endorsed Trump in 2016 as neither did several republicanRINOs. Nothing new this year. We the People have to step up and work and vote to elect Trump. I fear they will have riots every time he has a campaign rally. The states that are so against him he would not have carried anyway. This is a war and there are evidently no rules or boarders.
