The Last Shred of Colin Powell’s Relevance Is Gone, Thank God

Scott McKay, The American Spectator

Therefore the understandable gnashing of teeth by the Tucker Carlsons of the world —

Carlson’s freak-out over Iran was driven in no small part by a conviction that it would be the deep state/military industrial complex’s insistence on the Pottery Barn rule that would turn Iran into another Iraq — can be put to bed. For now. Powell has been gone for three years. I don’t wish to exhume him for further denigration. In fact, I hope we don’t have to exhume him at all. And it’s worth giving Trump thanks for making this the new state of play.
