“I cannot in any way support President Trump… I will be voting for Joe Biden,” the former Republican secretary of state said
Powell continued, “And then I was deeply troubled by the way in which he was going around insulting everybody, insulting Gold Star mothers, insulting John McCain, insulting immigrants — and I’m the son of immigrants — insulting anybody who dared to speak against him. And that is dangerous for our democracy. It is dangerous for our country.”
Powell then suggested the immense size of the current protests might be a signal that the American people may be more aware of Trump’s incompetence and are fed up with him. “I think what we’re seeing now, the most massive protest movement I have ever seen in my life, I think this suggests that the country is getting wise to this, and we’re not going to put up with it anymore,” Powel said.by attacking Powell and Biden without addressing any of the points the former secretary made.
Powell spoke further about the demonstrations and put a twist on Trump’s favorite “Make America Great Again” slogan, by adding an inclusive note. “What we have to do now is reach out to the whole people, watch these demonstrations, watch these protests, and rather than curse them, embrace them to see what it is we have to do to get out of the situation that we find ourselves in now,” Powell said. “We’re America, we’re Americans, we can do this. We have the ability to do it, and we ought to do it. Make America not just great, but strong and great for all Americans, not just a couple.
