Colin Powell: ’I can no longer call myself a fellow Republican’
Former Secretary of State Colin Powell said that he no longer considers himself a Republican following the riot that broke out at the Capitol last week. Replying to a question of whether he thinks the Republicans who have not condemned Trump’s actions are encouraging ’this wildness to grow’, Powell responded that ’they did, and that’s why I can no longer call myself a Republican.’
As for lying to the media, UN & NATO with false documents accusing Hussein of having WMDs to start an unjustifiable war the would kill millions & cost trillions, you can still call yourself a republican. The man is a joke.
Powell hasn't really been a "Republican" for a very long time... its been 16ish years. He's a true RINO, which is fine, but he should've changed his affiliation long ago... but then he wouldn't be able to make statements like he did. #nolongerrelevant
You have been a demoncrat traitor since voting for the obamination. Thug.
Says the man who said he knew he sent soldiers to their death for no good reason. And admitted it. War criminal.
Thought the line would have been when Republicans forced him to lie so we could start an illegal war against a country that didn't attack us.
Never could. I got no love for war mongers.
Powell voted for Hillary Clinton, he's aligned with the war party.
Cool, but I will continue to refer to Powell as a war criminal
Disappointed in him!! I thought he was better that that!
Someone stole my RINO card - Colin Powell
He's a globalist, who cares what he calls himself. Republican/Democrat matters not. This is about good vs evil not political party.
My sentiments exactly! Rebublincan? Not for a long time.
I never thought of you as one! Just like McCain. Whatever opinion would get you noticed would be yours.
That's because you are a rino Colin. Used to be respected but not no more.
People are still waiting for those Iraaqi WMDs. Powell should be in The Hague for war crimes.
Fairly sickening, the amount of hate in the headline article. Regardless of personal view
Too little too late. Republicans have been abhorrent for a long time now. The sedition just made it obvious to people who weren't paying attention.
The ONLY Republican I would ever vote for. Great man.
Vlog discussing whether capitol riot should have been prevented based on information known ahead of time: https://youtu.be/gC3h-7qQ6L8
Of course missing context in quoting Trump as saying go to the capital and fight like hell. He said to go peacefully and have your voice heard. But that’s a common occurrence from our wonder media
