Gen. Colin Powell: This Was A ‘National Disgrace,’ But We’ll Get Through It | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Revolution
Trump compared himself to Abraham Lincoln and his supporters brought confederate flags into the capitol

With Pentagon and DC officials pointing fingers at one another, and everyone else seeming to be genuinely wondering about the “inexplicable” absence of National Guard at the Capitol coup attempt, I will offer a little refresher on why Pentagon officials’ brief denials should be taken with a grain of salt. A few weeks ago (though it feels like a lifetime ago) just before the election, Trump “inexplicably” purged the Pentagon of its top brass, replacing them with loyalists.

C’mon folks.
Rodney king thing
Failed coup attempt. Pay attention. Pro fascists are absolutely interested in ending the democratic republic. “Taking the country”….not back. Traitors never had it. Trump is deep state. Fascist. Oligarchy. Dictatorship.
A national disgrace really ? How about starting an illegal war that has killed a million people ? Is that a disgrace ?
Larry Hogan, Governor of Maryland, said the Civil Guard were blocked for 90 minutes by the Secretary of Defence.
Colin Powell is ridiculous. This was nothing like the LA Riots. This old fart is washed up.
MOB BOSS Trump is the FRAUD.. He Thrives In A Culture Of BS and Criminality, The corruption in the trump administration is appalling, Massive Failure of Leadership. Shame on all those who know this and yet still protect and enable this clown..I’m sickened every time I hear trumps voice uttering a string of lies or self vanity. I am SO HAPPY this Sad and Pathetic Orange Turd has been voted out
What is scary is General Flynn and his new My Pillow sidekick still saying Trump will be sworn in on Jan.20. I’m afraid Flynn may be willing to try and play his QAnon, Proud Boy and neo nazi pawns. It could get ugly. I hope I’m wrong.
Always thought Colin Powell should run for president. Even as a R I would vote for him in a heartbeat. As is often the case, the people that would be the best leaders of a nation are not interested.
IVAR the Boneless 2021 that was a modern day VIking Raid
Its evident that Trump angle his minions intentionally weakened security at the capital and delayed the response. There were even recorded instances of capital police aiding the invaders. This was a planned coup attempt. Like Hitler’s first attempt it was insufficient, kind of a practice run. Next time they will be more prepared and powerful. Trump will not stop. Thinking ‘ he can’t do that ‘ or ‘ he learned his lesson ‘ is foolish with Trump. Censoring, cease and desist letters mean nothing to him. His power and influence must be taken away ASAP. NOW!
no weapons ? i wont be surprised do you hear their chant Your Not American !
What kind of moronic half-wit brings their kids to a riot ? The woman at 5.35 with 2 small children needs to be arrested for child endangerment !
COLIN POWELL IS A WAR CRIMINAL AND THE MEDIA PRAISES HIM ….WHAT A JOKE !!
as comander in chief can’t trump be removed as unfit for duty?
It was bias and orchestrated. so let’s just see how this is handled. But its all on them.
The real plan was force a ten day audit! O.k. we know that and who called for it. Rudy was calling the people involved telling them delay until the following afternoon because the real push was to get multiple states to invalidate the election results and blow the whole election up!!!!
If a policeman catches someone raping his daughter FIVE MINUTES BEFORE HE’S OFF FOR THE DAY, what should he do? Huh?
You know why sir !!!
US military … stand by
Yes, General Powell, where were the forces that needed to protect the VP and the VP elect, as well as all of congress?!!?
