Retired military generals have described Donald Trump as a ādangerā to Americaās security as they endorsed Kamala Harris.
On the eve of a critical debate between Ms Harris and her Republican rival, 10 former top US military chiefs released a letter calling the vice-president the only candidate āwho is fit to serveā in the countryās highest office.
While Ms Harris had ādemonstrated her ability to take on the most difficult national security challenges in the Situation Room and on the international stageā, they wrote, Trump posed āa danger to our national security and democracyā.
The letter, signed by retired General Larry Ellis and retired Rear Admiral Michael Smith, among others, accused Trump of disparaging service members and putting them in āharmās wayā, including with his deal to free 5,000 Taliban fighters.
It coincided with a new Harris campaign advert placed in Palm Beach featuring Trumpās most senior former officials warning of the risks of his White House return.
The attack advert shows a montage of scathing comments about the Republican ex-president by some of his most senior former cabinet officials in what appears to be an effort to goad him ahead of their televised live showdown on Tuesday night.
āIn 2016, Donald Trump said he would choose only the best people to work in his White House,ā the attack advertās narrator said. āNow those people have a warning for America: Trump is not fit to be president again.ā
I just want to point out, that it was RETIRED military Generals, with a letter just like this one, who got DADT repealed back in 2010, and allowed our LGBTQ brothers and sister to serve openly.
Oh I know. Itās just unfortunate that only the retired ones can speak freely
Bruh, Iāve been Enlisted for ~15 years now. I 100% agree.
I want the DoD leadership to address Project 2025 so badly.
I want them to publicly condemn/shame Christopher Miller and Paul Dans for their extremely dangerous rhetoric, and their assistance in drafting that egregiously violent document.
Ugh, fucking if only.
Problem is if Trump gets back in heāll clean house as much as possible so itās better to have people remain quiet and keep their heads down so theyāre in place to stop anything he tries as opposed to making it obvious they need to be removed by a tyrant.
