Breitbart
Sunday on CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria GPS,” former Secretary of State Colin Powell said he no longer considers himself a Republican in the wake of the last week’s attack on the Capitol.
Asked by host Zakaria whether “fellow Republicans” who have not criticized President Trump in the days since, “encouraged, at least, this wildness to grow and grow,” Powell responded in his opinion “they did, and that’s why I can no longer call myself a Republican.” He said:
I’m not a fellow of anything right now. I’m just a citizen who has voted Republican, voted Democrat throughout my entire career, and right now I’m just watching my country and not concerned with parties.
I do not know how he was able to attract all of these people. They should have known better, but they were so taken by their political standing and how none of them wanted to put themselves at political risk. They would not stand up and tell the truth or stand up and criticize him, or criticize others.
Powell’s denouncement of the GOP was the second time in less than a week he has entered the national political fray. More
Colon leaving the Republican party is like the guy everyone knew was gay finally coming out of the closet.
It is with much great remorse that this ‘Crazy White Cracker’ is no longer a supporter of Black Lives Matter.
I simply cannot, in good conscience.
Please respect my family’s privacy.
Had such respect for him, back in the day. That is long gone. So sad they are all a bunch of losers.
God Bless us all!
Your war with G-d is over, you must pay for your crimes.
IIRC, Powell has made a career out of leaving the Republican Party. Beats working for a living, I guess.
Impacted Colon Powell is what I have always referred to this jackass as.
You can’t trust anyone anymore. And all those who you thought were on your side, are rhinos. Traitors. Carpet baggers.
I’d easily be called a rascist for asking for a rope. But I’m diverse. Only those who deserve it, are on the list.
Ban me. Cancel me, look me up and attack me. Please!
I’m waiting . . .
This shit has got to end!
Hey Loco, you know what’s best about you commenting again is seeing your avatar. I always liked it. Your actual comments are OK too.
Who names their kid Colon? Should have named his weak ass Sue.
Um, thanks? joe6…NOW GET A DAMNED AVATAR!
YOU! You developed a great image for BFH…AHEM!
Brad, if you are named for bowel like Colin Powell, or Colin Kaepernick, your existence is like a passing fetid turd…
Loco,I like your Avatar too. But lets face it, it’s not as cool as mine or Joes. Which are both different, LOL.
Those that can be bought off, threatened or blackmailed eventually show themselves.
Did he ever stand for anything – other than himself?? Lots of great vets out there who did far greater things with no recognition. What a backstabbing shitweasel! Probably still a “Bush Baby” still…
Isn’t a Colon a meatbag full of shit?
I’m shocked, SHOCKED at the loss of such a stalwart ‘lifelong republican’ who is ‘watching’ our country!
And I breathlessly await the release of his next book.
I hope it includes tales of valor, such as how this ‘man of great stature’ could shamelessly fit hisself up both W’s and Barki’s anus.
Powell is one of the first examples of an affirmative action general. Storming Norman did all the real planning and work, Colon just had to stand there and look pretty for the cameras. No surprise he’s a total flip-flopping loser.
Years ago I heard him say (paraphrasing) he only called himself a Republican so he could do damage to the Party.
In the military’s officer ranks there is no more wretched, despised form of officer than what is known as a “Political General” or “Political Admiral”.
Colon Powell is the perfect example of Political General. A mediocre ass-licking lickspittle, Powell was despised by his fellow flag officers when he was in uniform.
Nowadays he is just a pathetic has-been, desperate to stay in the limelight and be relevant.
Safe to say this Colon has prolapsed into a democrat communist.
An absolute disgrace to the uniform he once wore and soiled.
All of His Actions are Affirmative !!!
u r & were just another bush/gro-bama asshole
“I can no longer call myself republican”
Clearly this imbecile doesn’t realize that none of us ever did call him republican.
This presumptuous jackass was groomed to ascend in the military ranks simply for political purposes. He is a public relations creation to assuage negros in both the military and civilian populations.
How many are aware that his first time in battle, after receiving a superficial wound, completely lost his composure, went into absolute hysterics and had to be removed from the field. [I think he was awarded the silver star for that days action}
In short, he’s a complete fraud who’s been cashing in on his color like so many others.
To shitbag Powell, Trump was able to attract that many people because lying shitweasels like you have done nothing for the people who pay your salary.
I thought that when he voted for Obama.
Bailey Levvy, I’m guessing English isn’t your native tongue.
Gee Wally, I guess we can “count him out”, just like that faggot
senator from SC, lindsey graham.
Isn’t this like the 3rd or 4th time he’s made the media rounds saying he’s left the Republican party? I remember the same shit 4 years ago and it seems as if I’ve heard it other times as well.
He’s an idiot. Many people are leaving the Republican now and it has everything to do with sorry pieces of shit like him and his former boss.
Hope he gets a job working for Biden then his mental illness plagued wife and Joe will have plenty to talk about.
The “Wealthy Persons” site lists his net worth at 55 million. Guess that General gig really paid off.
A few days ago, I And many others, left the Republican Party because they abandoned our president. I hope nobody Interprets this exodus to be influenced by Colon Powell’s departure. But knowing the MSM, they will.
The fattened tick, having drank his fill finally drops off.
He’s been Barry’s Colon Pal for, like, forever…
Why not?
The Republicans are turning out to be a coterie of turncoat, lying, back-stabbing, low-life, turd-licking, gutter-crawling, shit-eating, cock-sucking, garbage-truck-juice drinking, bad-breath, twatwaffles.
Powell fits right in!
He can be … like … the leader of the pack!
Vroom! Vroom!
Fuck Off, Powell – Eat Shit and Die.
izlamo delenda est …
Powell may be leading a stampede of rinos leaving the Republican party followed closely by that rino heifer, Lisa Murkowski!!
