At one time the US Presidency was his for the taking.
God rest his soul. Colin Powell was a Republican in the mold of the Bush's--meaning he was not really a Republican, but one in name only. His role in the war against Saddam Hussain, a war witch only served to kill thousands of Americans and to destabilize the Middle East and lead to the rise of ISIS, should always taint his name. His opposition to President Trump was exploited by the Democrat/Socialists who are destroying the USA.
not really a republican?
bullshit
Only those who kiss Trump;'s fat ass are true Repubs?
The Dems and the Repubs supporter that war and I bet you did too much as you did the Afghan mess
To be precise, he died of multiple myeloma, exacerbated by Covid, but the headlines support the Narrative.
He was 84
He had blood cancer
He had Parkinson's
The covid impact brought about his death though vaccinated
Do you think he would be alive with all three things had he NOT had the vaccine?
RIP
DG
