Trump unfit to serve say 111 former GOP officials and they endorse Harris

[John Clark]

111 high-ranking Republicans have signed a letter castigating Donald Trump and supporting Kamala Harris. In addition to a bunch of admirals and generals the letter was signed by two former defense secretaries, a former president of the World Bank, two former C.I.A. directors, a former director of national intelligence, a former governor,  two members of Trump's presidential administration, and 4  former members of the House of Representatives.  Republicans all. 

They say Trump had demonstrated “dangerous qualities  including an  unusual affinity for dictators like President Vladimir Putin of Russia and contempt for the norms of decent, ethical and lawful behavior. As president, he promoted daily chaos in government, praised our enemies and undermined our allies, politicized the military and disparaged our veterans, prioritized his personal interest above American interests and betrayed our values, democracy and this country’s founding documents. He has violated his oath of office and brought danger to our country.”

And they say “any potential concerns about Ms. Harris pale in comparison to those over Mr. Trumps'.

But no office-holding Republicans.

Yes, I noticed that too. And that is why, although I have been a Republican for most of my life, I will never vote for a Republican again, not even for dogcatcher.

Brian Fitzpatrick, maybe just a little? This U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania has taken moderate positions and has occasionally pushed back against Trump's claims regarding the 2020 election. This is already heroic given how popular Трамп (Trrramp) is with the base. And Lisa Murkowski, Mitt Romney, and Bill Cassidy? There are things like public records. Influential politicians that align themselves with authoritarian tendencies, should automatically be barred from politics. Gotta move away from "this is difficult to prove in free speech contexts"; and just point to recordings and alliances. He said that, they aligned themselves with him, and finito. 

It's so obvious, I feel like I lost some brain cells saying it.
