Kurt Schlichter gives perspective on Colin Powell. Kurt served under him at one time and respected Powell as a military general who was competent and performed adequately but never had to meet a payroll or worry how to pay the rent.
Like many luminaries of the Boomer establishment, Powell provided a certain gravity and dignity to an elite rapidly filling up with young, woke, unaccomplished hacks. Though he was firmly on the side of the woke pronoun people by the end, he was not one of them. He picked up a rifle; they picked a gender. Powell was a serious man who found himself allied with unserious people.
