Colin Powell, a so-called Republican, voted twice for socialist Barack Obama. This from thegatewaypundit.com.
In June 2020, Colin Powell famously announced he would not vote for Republican President Trump but would back Joe Biden instead.
This was after Black Lives Matter protesters destroyed millions in property in Washington DC and Trump threatened to use force against the violent mob.
And in his last interview, Colin Powell attacked President Trump for “attempting to overturn the government” on Jan. 6.
On Tuesday, 24 hours after Powell’s passing, President Trump released a statement on the former Secretary of State. Trump did not hold back.
“Wonderful to see Colin Powell, who made big mistakes on Iraq and famously, so-called weapons of mass destruction, be treated in death so beautifully by the Fake News Media. Hope that happens to me someday.
“He was a classic RINO, if even that, always being the first to attack other Republicans. He made plenty of mistakes, but anyway, may he rest in peace!”
Colin Powell was a Republican when the label served him. Otherwise he was democrat. Is that not the definition of RINO?
Personally, I had many reasons for disapproving of him, however, for me, I knew he was well beyond any favorable consideration after he supported the Kenyan–twice.
Rest in peace.
