Gen. Colin Powell: This Was A ‘National Disgrace,’ But We’ll Get Through It | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Remember back in 2016 when Trump went on and on about Hilary getting the popular vote after he won . RED FLAGS Now Trump won’t leave. What a wacko. He’s NOTgoing to
We should have had a Congress that cared more about our country and democracy than their ambitions.
A great mind & fantastic choice to weigh in. EVERY INTELLIGENT PERSON WHO HAS HELD ANY SIGNIFICANT OFFICE HAS SAID THE SAME: “Trump is a disgrace, a danger”. I wish Powell has replied to Mika’s initial question, re: Trump’s access to any nuclear codes That is the ultimate threat possible to us & the world.
I’m sitting here listening to Powell and thinking, am I supposed to applaud him?
Then I remember he too is nothing more than a war criminal that got away with his crimes, along with the rest of them.
djt planned the whole thing since last year. When he started replacing key people with obedient followers WHO ARE NOT FREE ANYMORE. They are pawns in a sick deranged person’s game.
Our political system has failed. I am ready to meet my demise. We all need to accept it. Had a nice life so far though!
Jail Donald Trump now he is a disgrace and an embarrassment to the United States of America. A total fool !!!
Remember the lie that there were weapons of mass destruction. This started a war. Many service men died. How is he any better than Trump. Look within before you talk
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 vial of complicity with a criminal administration
that killed at least several hundred thousand innocent people.
I can understand stupid/evil; Bush/Cheney.
I can’t understand you. How do you sleep?
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.
