Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says the Republican Party has shifted much further right than the rest of the country — and GOP leaders must get its fringe members in line.

During an appearance at the Washington Ideas Forum on Wednesday, Powell said it “should be obvious to party leaders that they cannot keep saying and doing the things that they were doing and hope to be successful in national-level election in the future, not just in 2016.”

“Powell is an affirmative action careerist.

He was promoted over many more qualified generals by Bush 41.

He then was given the position of Secretary of State by Bush 43.

He failed at both. He was in charge for the Mogudishu disaster. He was terrible in his role as Secretary of State. “

Then add turncoat, and eventually traitor to the above

Go back and crawl under the rock from whence you came. Your day (which never happened in the first place) has come and gone.

Leave the real Americans alone.

He is crazy. The Republican Party has moved left, just a little more slowly than the leftist extremism of the Democrats.

Who does he want to annoy? That is a pretty sad reason for choosing a political party.

There needs to be a way to expel someone from a political party.

Colin Powell: I will ‘continue to be a Republican because it annoys them’

Well then how do I change to another party? One of us has to go.

“Former Secretary of State Colin Powell, who endorsed President Barack Obama twice and came out in favor of the Iran nuclear deal days before the Congressional vote, says that he is still a Republican.”
