In a newly leaked email, Colin Powell holds nothing back against the current presidential nominees. The leaks were performed by DCLeaks. He stated that “Trump is a national disgrace and an international pariah,” and that he “appeals to the worst angels of the GOP nature and poor white folks.”
However, he also criticized the Democratic nominee. Powell said, “Everything HRC touches she kind of screws up with hubris.” His most damning criticism may have been when he said:
I would rather not have to vote for her, although she is a friend I respect. A 70-year person with a long track record, unbridled ambition, greedy, not transformational, with a husband still dicking bimbos at home (according to the NYP).
These emails give a small glimpse into an interesting amusing relationship between top political minds. It is possible that more leaks could allow for more unintended candor.
