Gen. Colin Powell: This Was A ‘National Disgrace,’ But We’ll Get Through It | Morning Joe | MSNBC
I would hope we impeach then he wont be able to run for president again he also will not be able to get a pension of 200 hundred thousand dollars a year and many other privileges.
I respect Powell more than others from the W. Bush administration—with its WMD failure, Iraq war, and war crimes. Was Powell outraged then? Some of his phrases here sound like projecting onto others who “just went along with him”. . .”should have seen early on what was happening”. . .”a disgraceful performance by our leaders”.
To be decent as a country, America’s decency must extend to people who aren’t Americans also.
My guess is that the military never gave Trump the real launch codes. They just make him believe he has the real ones. I am not making a joke. I really think that is possible. The military higher up have see what an incompetent and unhinged he is.
But, Gen. Powell, you didn’t answer what do we do if Trump wants to press the nuclear button randomly within the next 12 days.
I applaud your attempt to bring justice to a truly horrible person,
whose words brought about the death of five people, but,
I have in my hand, a tiny vile of complicity with a criminal organization
that killed at least several hundred thousand innocent people.
Trump is going thru his second childhood. He was told no! And this happens!
This fake new woman Mika and husband joe look bitter and angry. Sure her husband failed when was in politic
Vandalized chaos by antifas and black lives matters, was horrible those were burning down , hurting innocent people , attacking people , , weeks and weeks. Why left wing. ? No critized. Those fake news showing antifas and. Blm burning down. Cities and state were peaceful protest. Left wing hypocrasy is disgrace.
Lawless and anarchy… And you want to teach the world about democracy? No right to interfere in other countries anymore. No moral ground
SEE WHAT I MEAN ALL THESE IDIOTS ARE SAYING WE WILL GET OVER IT YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING GET HIM OUT AND LOCK HIM UP
Anything could happen I warn others about this . I saw this coming. Years ago. Get him out the office. Now. Don’t wait. An charge everyone that took place. Fired them. Take there insurance away. Take there money
A day of greater national disgrace, was the day Colin Powell lied to the UN about the non existent Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction. That led to the deaths of millions.
Colin Powell the man.
Where are the cops? Taking selfies with the mob.
But you’ve seen and experienced it in other countries to which murka is exporting its vile version of demawcrasy – ain’t ya.
Good commentary by General Colin Powell. If we don’t listen to people of his calibre we show we can’t learn anything.
This is an inside job planned and organized by who, is the question.
Change the nuclear codes; you never know if Trump can sell it to pay off his debts; he has a Trump 1st policy….LOL
Donald J Trump, Rudy Guliani,
Sen. Josh Hawley, and Ted Cruz and their RICO enablers should be arrested for Treason.
For all the enabling Politicians who riled up the MAGA: 14 Amendment, Section 3: No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, …to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability. This therefore applies under Section 2 to all the Trumplicans who tried to circumvent my moderate left voting rights!
I don’t understand how anyone continues to refer to him as president, but referred to President Obama as Obama. The title of president should never be wasted on trump. Never!
Get trump out now
This man lied about WMD so I don’t believe a word he says
Where is Waldo DRUMPF?
Some of the insurgents are veterans. If future uprisings occur, and are met by the National Guard,’it will be interesting to see active duty military subdue former military/veterans.
