cigarjoe Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Former President Trump Tuesday derided Gen. Colin Powell in death as a turncoat who “made plenty of mistakes.” Breaking with a near-unanimous chorus of praise for the trailblazing soldier and diplomat, Trump slammed Powell on Tuesday as a “classic RINO,” or Republican in name only, “if even that.” Read all about the latest from that sorry sack of sheet here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamradio Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Colin Powell was a moderate Republican and didn't strictly adhere to absolute loyalty to any one party.

What more do they want from him. Trump is so STUPID. I appreciate the link there, but no thanks. I, for one at least, don't need to read it. I already know what a sheet head he is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElCid Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 What I find amusing is that hard core "Republicans" and conservatives accept Trump as NOT a RINO when he is the biggest RINO in the party (and not just girth-wise). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the one that criticizes fellow Republicans more than any other Republican is Trump. Look at what Trump said about Mitch when he made a deal on the debt celling to delay it until December. Mitch a RINO? Of course then there is Liz Cheney: I assume Nipkow now labels her a RINO but a review of her voting records clearly shows she is anything but. The bottom line here is clear: In Trump's world (as well as Nipkow's), a RINO is someone that isn't 100% for Trump. It has NOTHING to do with their stance on policy issues. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermind, disregard, etc. I suspected that but didn't want to say. You have done this sort of thing before. Maybe as jokes. Those were not self-effacing traits anyway. Girth is much to commonplace to be considered truly self-effacing. I am quite girthy myself. And I am a bit mirthy too, but I wouldn't go so far as to say jolly. I am no Andy (since we are doing first names). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
