Colin Powell – “I certainly cannot in any way support President Trump this year”

In a Sunday interview on CNN, retired General and Republican, Colin Powell expressed frustrations with Donald Trump and his administration’s clear goal of dismantling the very fabric of this nation. Powell also confirmed that he will not support Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

“I certainly cannot in any way support President Trump this year,” Powell, a Republican, told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union,” adding that he couldn’t bring himself to vote for Trump four years ago.

The retired general voted for Trump’s Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton, in 2016, and hacked emails released in September of that year showed Powell strongly condemning Trump, labeling him a “national disgrace and an international pariah.”

Powell said Sunday that he is “very close to Joe Biden on a social matter and on a political matter,” adding: “I worked with him for 35, 40 years, and he is now the candidate and I will be voting for him.”

Biden expressed his thanks in a tweet later Sunday, saying, “This isn’t about politics. This is about the future of our country. Grateful for your support, Secretary Powell.”

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
