A series of leaks of email exchanges involving the former U.S. secretary of state Colin Powell have revealed a stinging rebuke of Donald Trump, as well as lesser criticism of Hillary and Bill Clinton.

Powell has not endorsed Trump and wrote in another email, “He appeals to the worst angels of the GOP nature and poor white folks”, CNN reported.
He also blasted Trump for leading the “racist” movement against President Barack Obama in 2011, which claimed that the president was not born in the US. That’s what the 99 per cent believe.
DCLeaks.com has been alleged to be an outlet for hackers tied to the Russian intelligence groups.
In an email sent in March 2015, Mr Powell was critical of her appearance, saying that she “doesn’t look good” on high-definition TV, was “working herself to death” and raised questions about her being the second-oldest president, turning 70 in her first year in office, if elected in November. “No further comment at this time”.
“I warned her (Clinton) staff three times over the past two years not to try to connect it to me”. His emails show that he grew increasingly frustrated with Clinton’s attempt to bring him into the scandal over her private email server. A Powell spokeswoman confirmed to The Washington Post that the emails are Powell’s.
To other recipients, Powell noted that, in declining news media interviews, he thought Trump was getting too much coverage.
Powell told the New York Post he did not recall that particular exchange when asked about its authenticity.
“I asked him about it, and he said you can’t trace these emails”, Bolton continued.
Leaked emails reveal he thinks the ex-president is still “dicking bimbos, ‘ his wife ‘screws up” everything, and her opponent is a racist.
Last month, Powell wrote that the Clinton camp largely ignored him when he advised them to knock off that line of defense. “And I have to say I’m increasingly concerned by how we’ve seen Donald Trump’s alarming closeness with the Kremlin become more and more clear over the course of this campaign”.
No, not that Secretary of State (though we’re sure you’ll hear more about her emails after this whole “Hillary is mere moments from death” business cools off). “She is working herself to death”.
In an email from July of 2014, Powell tells mega Democratic donor Jeffrey Leeds that he would rather not vote for Hillary.

On one occasion, however, he appears to come to her defense, calling Benghazi investigation a “stupid witch-hunt”, adding that the “courageous ambassador” Chris Stevens was also partly to blame for his own death.
