Better late than never , I always say!

Swing voters need to rally around the republic and vote for Traditional democracy, not socialism or Marxism .This isn’t the party of Kennedy anymore.imop

The letter warns that those dangers include the growing acceptance of radical leftist ideology.

 

"With the Democratic Party welcoming to socialists and Marxists, our historic way of life is at stake," it says.

Never knew that a number of retired U.S. generals and admirals, who swore an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution as officers, would be so friendly toward an attempted insurrectionist presidential candidate.

 

Obviously, many are NOT!

 

More than 700 national security officials endorse Kamala Harris for president

Public letter calls VP a candidate who ‘defends America’s democratic ideals’ and says Donald Trump is ‘unfit’ for job

 

22 Sep 2024

 

More than 700 national security leaders and former military officials publicly endorsed Kamala Harris for president in a letter released on Sunday, calling her a candidate who “defends America’s democratic ideals”.

 

They also said her Republican rival, Donald Trump, was “unfit” for the job.

 

The letter, signed by retired US navy R Adm Michael Smith and hundreds of others, criticized the former president’s remarks about “terminating” the US constitution over his lie that the 2020 election was stolen and his suggestion of becoming a “dictator” if re-elected.

As regards to active duty U.S. military fomenting insurrection:

 

What Happened to Members of the Military Accused of Storming the Capitol on January 6?

November 05, 2021

 

At least five service members allegedly were part of the deadly pro-Trump mob that assaulted the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, leaving behind a ransacked house of government and injured police.

 

The attack shook the core of democracy in America, with looting and violence as Congress certified the presidential election results. The sudden unrest forced lawmakers to hide in offices and barricade doors as rioters chanted threats.

...

"I think the way the military is handling insurrectionists, treating them with kid gloves, is another great example of how broken the system is," Kristofer Goldsmith, an Army veteran and CEO of Sparverius, an intelligence firm that researches online extremism and disinformation campaigns, said in an interview. "There's no excuse for insurrection; it should be treated as the most serious crime someone who swore an oath to the Constitution can commit." [emphasis added]

This is who the retired military signers supporting Trump are endorsing:

Trump indicted again in election subversion case brought by Jack Smith

08/27/2024

 

A federal grand jury in Washington, D.C. has reindicted Donald Trump on four felony charges related to his effort to subvert the 2020 presidential election.

 

The 36-page indictment, secured Tuesday by special counsel Jack Smith, is an attempt by prosecutors to streamline the case against Trump to address the Supreme Court’s ruling last month that concluded presidents enjoy sweeping immunity from prosecution for their official conduct.

...

Trump also faces criminal charges in Georgia for interfering with the 2020 election results in that state. And in May, he was convicted in New York of falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment to a porn star.

border security,Iran nuke deal and policing also a threatened US national security.
