hershel walker, NY congressman Zelden of the 82 airborne, jack brewer an nfl alumni who dedicates his life to helping the poor, a catholic nun who is a doctor and a retired colonel in the air force, senator tim
scott was amazing, the young (rising star) black AG from KY, the bank robber or dimes by trump who turned his life around, senator Jodi Wrnst who is a military vet, the kidnin the wheelchair who stood up for the flag at the end, Nick Sandman to talk about media bias ( who better on that issue?), tonight senator tim cotton who graduated from harvard and harvard law, them enlisted in the army and opted for the infantry. Sean Parnell ( congressional candidate who served a brutal tour with the rangers in afghanistan), dan crenshaw, the chinese dissident who was jailed for speaking about chinese injustices.

there’s no shortage of jerks in the gop for sure. there’s a real shortage of inspiring heroes on the other side.

I think I know why he did what he did.

Powell was one of the most instrumental and influential people on the planet, for going to war with Iraq. When that war went horribly wrong, he made it his mission in life to do anything he could, to be remembered for anything other than convincing the world that we should have invaded Iraq.

Joe Lieberman was an actual democratic candidate for VP, and he endorsed John McCain. I notice that didn't make you switch sides ,so why should I give any more weight to Powell's actions than you gave to Lieberman.

Not sure what iraq or liberman has to do many former republicans and their statements about Trump
Trump is "drifting" away from the Constitution and said he's a habitual liar. Powell.

Funny there were a few in 2016 now their are many many more.. they believe in the party but not the Man who is an opertunist, not Republican nor democratic

"Not sure what iraq or liberman has to do many "

Do you even read your own posts? You said that Powells defection is evidence of issues in the GOP. Well Lieberman was way bigger in the democrat party than Powell ever was in the GOP, and Lieberman endorsed McCain, and we all know that meant nothing to you. SO why should Powells actions mean any more to me?

Trump is a liar, no doubt. As to his drifting away from the constitution, that what courts are for, to keep him in check, as they were also needed to keep Obama in check. If you're telling me that Biden will adhere more strictly to the constitution than Trump will, that is hilarious.

Lieberman and McCain were best buddies and Liebs thought he was going to get the VP spot.
