Can this guy just shut up! I had mixed feelings about Powell but I have some class.
“Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday derided late Gen. Colin Powell as a turncoat who “made plenty of mistakes” — one day after the former secretary of state died from complications of COVID-19.
Breaking with a near-unanimous chorus of praise for the trailblazing soldier and diplomat, Trump slammed Powell as a “classic RINO,” or Republican in name only, “if even that.”
“He was….always the first to attack other Republicans,” Trump said in an emailed statement. “He made plenty of mistakes, but anyway, may he rest in peace!”
Trump appeared to turn Powell’s death into an opportunity to attack his own critics.

Trump sucks and good riddance to him when the time comes. Also, good riddance to those who lied to Invade Iraq and kill millions. One day soon hopefully we’ll stop venerating these types of people and learn from our mistakes.
