In a series of emails Colin Powell went after both Bill and Hillary
Clinton, as well as Donald Trump.
The Washington Post says Here are the juiciest Colin Powell comments about Trump and
Clinton from his hacked emails.
Actually, the Post missed the “juiciest” hacks. On purpose?
Let’s take a look, followed with “real juice”.
Newly released emails reportedly hacked from former Secretary of State
Colin Powell’s account show him calling Donald Trump a quote “national
disgrace” and “international pariah.” He also reportedly criticizes Hillary
Clinton’s camp for trying to drag him into her email scandal.
He calls Trump “a national disgrace and an international pariah” who led a
“racist” birther movement. And he says that he resented Clinton’s dragging
him into her email problems and that “everything [she] touches she kind of
screws up with hubris.”
The emails were first reported by BuzzFeed and the Intercept after being
posted under password protection on DCLeaks.com, a site with ties to other
recent hacks of U.S. political figures and groups. A Powell spokeswoman
confirmed to The Washington Post that the emails are Powell’s.
“We have confirmed that the general has been hacked and that these are his
emails,” spokeswoman Peggy Cifrino said. “We have no other comment at this
time.”

Real Juice
The Hill offers some “real juice” in Leaked Email Slams Bill Clinton on Continuing Affairs with
‘Bimbos’
“I would rather not have to vote for her, although she is a friend I
respect,” he writes in the email dated July 26, 2014. “A 70-year-old person
with a long track record, unbridled ambition, greedy, not transformational,
with a husband still dicking bimbos at home (according to the NYP).”
In another leaked email Colin Powell Called Dick Cheney an Idiot.
Presidential Debate
These emails are damning to Hillary, not Trump.
Like it or not (Democrats won’t), these leaked emails are going to surface
in the ads and perhaps even the debates.
Expect an extremely nasty campaign with lots of mud from both sides.
