    More than 80 national security professionals break with tradition and endorse a presidential candidate — Biden

    More than 80 career national security professionals have signed an open letter of support for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, saying that President Trump “has created an existential danger to the United States.”

    Most of the signatories, who include career diplomats, intelligence officers and defense policymakers, have served both Republican and Democratic administrations. They noted that their policy views cover a spectrum and as officials they “have often been in opposition, sometimes bitterly, with each other.”

    Sounds really bad until you actually see the letter and 71 of them never worked under the Trump Administration and some of them have been out of national security for 20 or 30 years.

    But hey, out of the 30k-40k that work in national security currently, they just happened to find a dozen or so still working that don't support Trump. Good work finding those needles in a haystack.
