Colin Powell: Hillarys Hubris Screws Up Everything

Daily Caller ^ | September 14, 2016 | Blake Neff

Posted on by maggief

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell complained to a friend that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton screws up everything she touches thanks to overwhelming personal hubris, a newly-leaked email reveals.

Powell sent the email, one of thousands leaked by the organization DC Leaks, to private equity tycoon Jeffrey Leeds Aug. 18, 2015, a few days after Clintons private email server was seized by the FBI. Leeds remarked that Clintons email scandal was getting worse every day and that she may be in serious trouble.

Powell responded saying Clintons problems were her own fault.

Everything HRC touches she kind of screws up with hubris, he said.

Not always. Sometimes it’s just thundering incompetence.

I have no respect for Powell. He has work to do to even earn the name RINO!

Reading through these messages, his frustration is not with HiLIARy or her policies. He’s fully down with globalism/socialism. He’s just angry that she’s messing up the game by being so politically careless.

I have no respect for Powell He lost a lot of mine when he said what GWB wanted him to say, for an excuse to invade Iraq. I've been thinking about what's been revealed in Powell's emails so far. It's deeply disturbing. Where does he get off, deciding who is and is not racist? His disdain even extended to hillary when she wouldn't play by his rule book. I'm thinking that these disclosures don't particularly hurt hillary and Trump. They might even help Trump because more folks might decide they'd rather be Deplorable than have the likes of Colin Powell pass judgement about who is and is not racist. Who it does destroy is Powell. He sure is coming across as one arrogant know-it-all SOB.

Where does he get off, deciding who is and is not racist? Since he is aligned with and in Bed with the Democrat Party, the Founders and Leaders of the KKK, He should have a pretty good idea of what Racism is every time he looks in a Mirror.

Thanks, Colin.



To: maggief

And he would know. If anyone is an expert on “hubris”, it’s Powell. Arrogant traitor SOB.



To: maggief

Colin Powell nominating himself to take over for Hillary?



I'm sure that the Obamunist would be for it.....probably members of the GOPe as well.



To: maggief

Dohhh! There goes any relevance associated with that endorsement.
