Retired military generals have described Donald Trump as a “danger” to America’s 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 “who is fit to serve” in the country’s highest office.
While Ms Harris had “demonstrated her ability to take on the most difficult national security challenges in the Situation Room and on the international stage”, they wrote, Trump posed “a danger to our national security and democracy”.
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 “harm’s way”, including with his deal to free 5,000 Taliban fighters.
It coincided with a new Harris campaign advert placed in Palm Beach featuring Trump’s 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.
“In 2016, Donald Trump said he would choose only the best people to work in his White House,” the attack advert’s narrator said. “Now those people have a warning for America: Trump is not fit to be president again.”
Wait, but the folks on lemmy.ml told me that a vote for Kamala was the same as voting for Trump, especially the single issue voters on Palestine. How is it possible that Trump is more dangerous‽
/s
I can confidently say that Kamala Harris will never be President of lemmy.ml
bit of an overgeneralization there mate

Do you think that we give a fucking shit what US military generals have to say?
You don’t give a fucking shit about Palestine if you think Trump and Harris are the same, I know that much.
You’re the one voting for genocide.
It seems to have upset you. Are the other MAGA campaigners equally mad?
All of the US’s generals should be in prison, not giving interviews. They’re some of the worst people on Earth and their endorsement of Harris should make you extremely concerned.
Also, America was never great.
I actually think MAGAs such as yourself are also amongst the worst people on Earth. You love genocide so much you want Donald back in to “finish the job” in Gaza, bomb the fuck out of Yemen, aid Russia in demolishing Ukraine. Along with ensuring human rights erode even further in America. It is disgusting that you are on here every day campaigning for Donald.
“If you’re not with us you’re with the enemy!”
Harris is going to help Israel finish the job in Palestine. They’re already expanding the extermination campaign into the West Bank right now, and she will just continue Biden’s unlimited support for Israel.
And that’s why she’s being endorsed by generals. They love genocide.
EDIT also we’re bombing Yemen
If you’re not against the worst option you are for the worst option. You are a MAGA.
You want it to happen faster and more thoroughly, and you want genocides elsewhere. You want LGBT people scared and closeted for their safety. You want mass deportations in America. You are a disgusting individual, especially pretending to care about this issue to campaign on behalf of such an awful piece of shit.
I’m trans. They’re going to fucking kill me.
I still won’t vote for genocide. I’d rather die.
Nah, you just think you won’t be subjected to it, like all the other people campaigning for Donald every day. Like all MAGAs, you love the genocide and human rights abuses happening to everyone you hate even if it harms groups that include you.
Holy shit the lack of self reflection here is at epic levels of ridiculous.
I’m literally being told that, if I don’t vote for Harris, I am voting for Trump. Even though I’m literally not voting for Trump.
What I’m saying is, if you vote for genocide, you are voting for genocide. Because the candidate you’re voting for is part of the administration doing genocide, and they’re promising to not stop the genocide.
Kinda different 🙄
I can read what you’re being told. I can also read what you’re saying. And I can also see how funny it is that someone who is creating the false dichotomy of the election being “voting for/against genocide” is hilariously and hypocritically chastising people for saying “you’re either for us or against us.”
<Squirts you with a water bottle>
Bad Commie! Bad!
Now go sit in the corner and think about what you can do to help create unity between the proletariat, not sow discord.
What about the proletariat being butchered and starved and tortured by the IDF?
Who said it was? Do you know where you are?
They literally called me a MAGA disphit. 🙄
