Nailed it.
Wish more people would get in line with this so he would disappear quicker than 12/31
BAHAHAHAHAHA SOME CLOWN NOW IS STARTING THE DJ ESTUPID STUPIDER STUGOTZ ACT…
ANOTHER LYING DUMBASS COMMUNIST EXPOSED…
Many times the MSM has trashed conservatives in their obits while consistently slobbering over communists in their obits.
As always, when you read what Trump’s statement actually says versus what the click bait headlines indicate it says, the two things are complete strangers. It was a pretty mild “attack” as far as attacks go. It was much more of an “attack” on the MSM’s hypocrisy than on Powell.
I’m old enough to remember when Powell was “Literally Hitler” … you know … like 20 years ago. It’s amazing what being one of CNN’s GOP-bashing, useful idiots in the years after he retired did to restore his reputation with the MSM.

IT IS ALL THERE IN FRONT OF YOU ROCKO…
Still didn’t answer my question. As always. Pansy.

Sure - Trump took a very predictable shot at the MSM. I just don’t understand why he feels the need to make posthumous insults. This is what he (mostly) said:
Blockquote
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!"
Saying this, and then saying “but anyway, may he Rest In Peace” - it just makes him an asshole.
Even GSC - obviously a very fierce Trump supporter thinks this statement is entirely unnecessary. Because it is.
I’ve come to the belief that Trump wants a lot of people to hate him. And that’s an easy thing to achieve when making idiot comments like this.

Trump will never win the people in the middle…
I disagree, I personally know several people who would consider themselves as independent, didn’t support Trump between 16-20, but would now vote Trump. One of those people is me though technically I voted for Trump in 2020. Still, I think I’ve come a long way. On the flip side, I don’t know a single independent who is happy with Biden.
Point is, there aren’t many people of the “middle” that are looking around today and thinking, “I love what Biden has done with the place.”
There is a longing for leadership that preceded this current shit show. You don’t know how good you had it til it’s gone.
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU WAKE UP AND YOU HAVE A FUNCTIONING BRAIN AND YOU TRULY CARE ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY…

See Trump’s actual emailed statement on Powell sent via the “Save America” organization.
Predictably, TDS-suffering 51 edited the statement to serve his “argument” such as it is.
Given your distaste for the truth, you missed your calling 51, you should have become a MSM reporter.
“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!”
Not seeing anything above that isn’t true.
Um 51 posted the exact quote. He just took out the first part making fun of the media to isolate the second part bashing Powell.

Yep, not sure what stork is referring to.

That’s not the point - it shouldn’t matter if he fucked some things up over his career. The whole point is Trump’s complete lack of class and respecting the dead. Why does he feel the need to take these post-mortem pot shots? It does nothing but hurt him.
I wonder how Trump would feel if (heaven forbid) his wife died unexpectedly and a politician on the left said something similar to what he said about Powell.
Even Barr back when Trump was in office told Trump that people’s dislike of him had much less to do with his politics and a lot more to do with the fact that he’s an asshole.

NO IT DOESN’T…
WHEN CRIMINALS DIE THEY SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH…

Fair enough…And I guess I see your point.
I still think there are way too many who won’t for the man because he is a narcissist asshole. I think they want to lean Trump and end this madness, but then he keeps making himself into a side show, and making it all about him. And insulting a dead man that many still consider a hero isn’t going to help him…He is a soap opera and turns into more of one every day. I am in the same boat as you and the people you are describing, at least for 2020. I never thought I’d vote Republican, but Trump was an easy vote when you compare him to these left maniacs.
I don’t know if I I will vote for him in '24…But me saying “I don’t want him to run” doesn’t mean I wouldn’t. I just think the GOP defeat this progressive delusion and push for communism much easier with a different candidate.
I’d love to just move over and vote Libertarian the rest of my life…But what good does that do.
I too wish there was reform away from this two-party system. It’s not like tiered voting (or whatever it’s called) would automatically clean up election BS, but it would give candidates with a strong platform a fighting chance.

Skeeter - I must say this is good stuff and I agree with you.
Believe it or not (people on here probably won’t believe it), but I am a registered Republican. I want to get back to voting that way (hence my fierce pro-life views). I pray to god that Trump would just go away, as do many others who want to vote that way.
It’s no different than many who voted for Trump, because they couldn’t stomach Hillary or Biden. My own father was very clear to me on his view that he despised Trump and wished anyone else would have run. Still he explained, he voted for Trump over the policies of Hillary or Biden. Totally get this.
2024 is an eternity away in terms of politics. We’ll see what happens. I’d love to see someone other than Trump gain some steam. That said, should Trump decide to run I don’t think anyone stops him.
THESE POST ARE FREAKEN HILARIOUS…
TRUMP IS THE MOST POPULAR PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE PLANET…
THE PROPAGANDA FAKE MEDIA AS DISTORTED YOUR SENSE OF REALITY…
REALITY CHECK COMING VERY VERY SOON…

TRUMP IS THE MOST POPULAR PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE PLANET…
I mean….except for Biden……who got more votes than him.
I mean, I agree Trump is pretty popular. His biggest problem is that he’s MORE unpopular.

His biggest problem is that he’s MORE unpopular.
Correct, with dead people.
