Former Secretary of State Colin Powell blasted Donald Trump as a "national disgrace" and criticized repeated investigations into the 2012 attack in Benghazi as a "witch hunt" in personal emails leaked online by hackers.
Powell, a retired 4-star general and a Republican, confirmed the authenticity of the emails to NBC News.
"The hackers have a lot more," he added.
The contents of the emails were first reported by Buzzfeed News. It said the messages had been obtained by the website DCLeaks.com, which a federal law official told NBC News is believed to have ties to Russian intelligence services.
Powell called Trump a "national disgrace" and "international pariah" in a June 17 email to a former aide, saying the Republican presidential contender was "in the process of destroying himself, no need for Dems to attack him."
A subsequent email to the same former aide on Aug. 21 slammed Trump for spurring the "racist" so-called "birther" movement — the consistently debunked rumor that President Barack Obama was born in another country.
"Yup, the whole birther movement was racist," Powell wrote, according to Buzzfeed. "That's what the 99% believe. When Trump couldn't keep that up he said he also wanted to see if the certificate noted that he was a Muslim."
There was no immediate response from the Trump campaign to the emails.
Powell in another email the same day dismissed Trump's stated overtures to African-American voters. "There is nothing he can say that will sway black voters so he might as well say it to white folks," Powell wrote.
"He takes us for idiots," Powell, who is black, said in the email. "He can never overcome what he tried to do to Obama with his search for the birth certificate hoping to force Obama out of the Presidency. Or, demanding his school transcripts to see how he got into Harvard — (eg, affirmative action )."
Powell didn't restrict his criticism to Trump. In a Dec. 17 email to former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Powell said "Benghazi is a stupid witch hunt."

Here's what I think of Powell. The Republicans picked him up in Harlem, gave him a
bath and put him in the army. Then they made an officer out of him. Then a general !
Then a Secretary of State. Then he retired and has criticized the Republicans every time
he has the chance. How's that for loyalty ?

that -- he'd have spent 20 years peeling potatoes and working latrine duty in the service.
Then he would have returned to Harlem to sell .... whatever he could.

From an 1859 Southern newspaper:
They call us bigots harsh and stern
Because we dare protest.
Those sacred rights and liberties
Which they themselves neglect.
Because we say that "Native Born"
Should have a prior right
O're paupers in whose darkened soul
There is no ray of light;
Because, forsooth, we will not cringe,
Before a foreign shrine,
And own with them that kings have rights
Eternal and Divine.
If, to protect our dearest rights
From them who would them crush,
If to roll back their foreign
Hordes As they upon us rush:
If to Proclaim by word and deed
"Americans must rule".
If not to have the Bible torn
From out each public school:

I agree about going down the drain. I will disagree what is "circling". I'd suggest
the American culture is almost all gone into the sewer in the last 40 years. I little is
left, but it won't last long. The country has been "negrified". And nothing ever
rises from that condition.
