"Our allies no longer trust or respect us, and our enemies no longer fear us," the former officers and officials wrote in a letter released Thursday.
WASHINGTON — More than 200 retired generals and admirals endorsed Joe Biden for president in a letter published Thursday, saying he had the character and judgment to serve as commander-in-chief instead of President Donald Trump, who has failed "to meet challenges large or small."
Some of the officers who signed the letter supporting Biden had retired only in the past few years, including Air Force Gen. Paul Selva, who served as vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Trump before he retired in August 2019; Vice Adm. Gardner Howe, a Navy SEAL leader who also retired last year; and retired Adm. Paul Zukunft, who oversaw the Coast Guard until 2018.
The list of signatories featured 22 retired four-star military officers, among them Navy Adm. Samuel Locklear, who oversaw all U.S. forces in the Pacific from 2012 to 2015, and Adm. Harry Ulrich, who commanded U.S. naval forces in Europe during President George W. Bush's administration.
Wasn't there a similar letter last week that the same number was endorsing Trump, coincidence, forgery??
Makes you wonder but this list isn't coming from some online right wing news source with a questionable reputation...
We are 489 retired Generals, Admirals, Senior Noncommissioned Officers, Ambassadors and Senior Civilian National Security Officials supporting Joe Biden for President.
AN OPEN LETTER TO AMERICA
September 24, 2020
To Our Fellow Citizens:
We are former public servants who have devoted our careers, and in many cases risked our lives, for the United States. We are generals, admirals, senior noncommissioned officers, ambassadors, and senior civilian national security leaders. We are Republicans, Democrats, and Independents. We love our country. Unfortunately, we also fear for it. The COVID-19 pandemic has proven America needs principled, wise, and responsible leadership. America needs a President who understands, as President Harry S. Truman said, that “the buck stops here.”
"Our allies no longer trust or respect us, and our enemies no longer fear us," the former officers and officials wrote in a letter released Thursday.

The establishment war-mongers are clinging to the military-industrial complex for dear life.

I looked up quite a few of them - were appointed or served under Clinton's and Obama's watch - Democrats - Just wait until 11/4 Finn - no one here is changing their mind no matter what you come up with.
200 citizens endorse the guy who has no chance to win and one foot in an alzheimer's unit. Sounds good.
I'm sure that there are 200 citizen votes to counter those votes, and more than 200 votes in the military. What's your point exactly?
Did you want to give these guys ten votes each?
Did you have a balancing propaganda-piece on military that is voting for Trump, or was this today's sole serving of absolutely meaningless propaganda?
