Gen. Colin Powell: This Was A ‘National Disgrace,’ But We’ll Get Through It | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Very True Colin Powell, congress put up with this nonsense; GOP followed along and apart from Mitt Romney et tal nobody had the guts to stand up to lies about election fraud!
Can’t even deffend yr own Government House LOL always going on about National Security 9/11 ring a bell, USA is a Joke, just like Trump all Huff and Wind.
The problem is that everyone has a weapon!
Find Stephen Miller. If they want to keep this country safe, find this little weasel.
“but we’ll get through it”
Sorry but this kind of thinking has got to stop. What needs to happen is Trump’s removal but because of politics this won’t be done so we are instead told it’s better to wait it out. 4 years of waiting it out and what we got was an attempted coup and nothing should make us think that it’s over and things will eventually get better.
Regarding the riots: The Trump phenomenon is just a symptom of our government’s gross negligence toward the working class the last 12 years. Trump is not the problem, contrary to the denial narrative spouted by cnn and the like. What about the violence of abandoning the people you’re supposed to represent? Why are you even surprised at these events?
Ask a soldier if you want common sense? He’s an exceptional man.
Take the money trump got from his supporters and rebuild the hill and take about 10 millions to the family of the officer they killed and see how bad he really feels
Didn’t Colin used to be a lot darker skinned?
I really wish Gen Powell would have been our first black president. I normally do not support giving the military too much power, but I truly believe this man understands enough that he would have been balanced in his decision making.
This clown really just compared a desecration on our nation to a protest over police brutality. The same man that lied about wmd in Iraq that led to the deaths of tens of thousands. How dare you Gen. Powell. Go away Colin.
Remove FOX NEWS,REFORM THE POLICE ACROSS THE COUNTRY
Colin Powell did something criminal years ago when he lied to the whole world about Iraq having WMD and led the US to invade Iraq mass killing of innocent citizens men , women , and children . The world knew there was none and after all done and Iraq was destroyed, US admitted they made a mistake . But of course , the destruction was premeditated and Iraq had not recovered ever since …..
The Senators that went along with this attempted coup they need to be removed immediately
one more thing,the police and the thugs look alike,so you need to fix that problem,take a look at what they ware as there protesting and make sure the undercover and regular police wear a color coded just for them,jesus is it that hard? really?
Sounds different when someone speaks to truth, doesn’t it?
Appalling failure of the GOP to enable Trump’s idiocy. A sense here that law enforcement was deliberately disabled.
Trump is a Mob Boss ! FBI must seize his assets !
Where they disgraceful or in cahoots?
The plan was no good , because there was no plan trump knew what was going to happen that’s why there was no national guards there at the time they had to have time to breach the capital they been saying they were going to do this for weeks , so they all knew it was going to happen
Trump is Lucy with the football and the repups are Charlie Brown trying to kick that football.
But can’t succeed
It is not clear that we will get through this. As Trump goes away there plenty of other mad men who are much smarter than Trump waiting to claim his throne as head of the cult.
“The Congress and more than 12 Senators went along in supporting Trump in this act of treason to the nation. Those senators and those in the congress should be under scrutiny and punish accordingly
The filthy nail proximally identify because lyric interspecifically clap anenst a muddled cirrus. enormous, gamy interactive
Not sure Colin, if its simple as America will get through it…It’s 74 million people who have been told it’s ok to behave like terrorists. Only one way to go..arrest Trump and his troops
