Powell: Trump is 'an international pariah'
CNN ^ | September 14, 2016 | Eli Watkins

Leaked emails from former Secretary of State Colin Powell show him strongly criticizing Donald Trump, labeling him a "national disgrace and an international pariah."

He also called the birther movement, which the Republican presidential nominee helped lead, "racist."

"That's what the 99% believe. When Trump couldn't keep that up he said he also wanted to see if the certificate noted that he was a Muslim," Powell wrote in an August email.

Colin Powell has become a hardcore commie.

Such a shame, he had potential.

I wonder if he was paid off or threatened?

Powell backed Obama TWICE...

Powell backs democrat solutions... why should we care what he thinks anymore than what any other democrat thinks?

For a self-identified ‘Republican’ (who has yet to say a good thing about conservatives, even long before Trump), Mr. Bowell seems to have an awful lot of contact with Democrats.

The CLINTONS STARTED THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE SCANDAL.

As so many of you point out, most Politics of Personal Destruction operations are conceived and implemented by Progressive Socialist DemoRats.

He is another Bush legacy surplus artifact.

I sensed the mush in him from the beginning. Bushes don’t promote anyone else.

I was under the impression after 8 years of O'Bunghole that we didn't really much care what some over-the-hill, hidin' in the woodpile, pigment-challenged retard thinks.

Color me silly...

I have to snicker. Powell’s leaked e-mails are much more damaging to Hillary but CNN and NBC are only playing up the Trump condemnation.

"Hillary’s house negro."

Close, you're real close... but no cigar. Perhaps a euphemistic colloquialism for "Hildebeast's domicile primate" might be more in order... something with a dash more perjorative invective, and some aggressive vowels...

Well aren’t you the loquacious one.

When George W. Bush was running for President the first time, someone leaked his Yale transcripts to The New Yorker to be used in a hit piece. Would the 2008 race have been different if someone at Occidental College or Columbia University had leaked Obama's college transcripts to the press?

The Communist News Network, and Nothing But Communists? Really?

As usual, Powell, as a Black, is Black first, Dem second and American third. That is consistent.

Colin Powell seems in need of getting a grasp of reality.

Wow...
