Over 70 former Republican national security officials have endorsed Democratic nominee Joe Biden for president, calling Donald Trump “dangerously unfit to serve another term.”
The group includes several former members of the Trump administration, such as Miles Taylor, who served as the Department of Homeland Security chief of staff, and Elizabeth Neumann, who was DHS assistant secretary.
There are two signatories who served at the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA): former Administrator Linton Brooks and former Deputy Administrator William Tobey.
The statement was also signed by John Negroponte, the first director of national intelligence, and William Webster, the former FBI and CIA director.
“While some of us hold policy positions that differ from those of Joe Biden and his party, the time to debate those policy differences will come later. For now, it is imperative that we stop Trump’s assault on our nation’s values and institutions and reinstate the moral foundations of our democracy,” the officials wrote in the statement.
