that was retired four star general stanley mcchrystal.just one of hundreds of other generals and other senior military officials to come out against donald trump and for joe biden as it increasingly becomes clear that the chaos and discord that's become one in the same with donald trump's political campaign and presidency, poses a threat to national security. general stanley mcchrystal is a leader, a highly respected figure in the armed forces for decades under republican and democratic administrations. he's well known for publicly criticizing then vice president joe biden back in 2010 and making some comments that ultimately led to his resignation out of respect pour the obama administration. now he says his disagreements to him feel small compared to the abuses of our democracy at the hands of president trump and trump's failures of character, comments that come amid a barrage of stories about the president emboldening white supremacy, mocking fallen soldiers and dismissing the death toll from the coronavirus pandemic. general mcchrysta

you may remember him, stanley mcchrystal, he was forced to end his illustrious career because he broke the chain of command by being quoted in a newspaper, rolling stone, criticizing joe biden. well, whatever he felt then, it is way worse against trump. he just announced he is backing the former vice president. meanwhile, over 50 former u.s. national security officials also backing biden. a former chair of the party backing biden. kasich, powell, cindy mccain, a long list. and it reflects in some cases people who either supported or basically went i know what their party's person will and then did change over trump. it is a key strategy. those insiders that we spoke to last night, they told us how long it took to overturn on trump. >> how many years in your county, in your mind, did it take to change your mind about trump? michael? >> a decade. >> anthony? >> seven years. >> tony? >> zero. i knew who he was at hello. >> joining me now, good to have you. >> hey, ari. >> you look at that time frame. that's part of. this time of the essence, 33 days out. there are voters as you know from

[honking] that's why special operations commander stanley mcchrystal, navy seal commander admiral along with 24 stars endorsed me because they trust me. [honking] and that's why the military times reported more troops vote for biden than trump. that's why we have to support the military. they are the backbone of the country. let them vote and vote for them. when donald trump failed to condemn white supremacy, we can deliver on racial justice. seeing protesters across the nation, the life and dignity and george floyd killed seven miles from here and so many others that mattered. protesting, burning and looting is not protesting -- it is violence, clear and simple and will not be tolerated. but these protests are a cry for justice. the names george floyd, breonna taylor, jacob blake will not be forgotten, not by me, not by us, not by this country because true justice is also economic justice. access to schooling, housing, access to capital, good paying jobs with financial stability, giving families of color a real shot to own a home, start a small business, send a child to college debt-fr

and that's why special operations commander stanley mcchrystal, navy seal commander admiral craven along24 , stars endorsed me, saying they support me to be the next commander-in-chief because they trust me. and that's why the "military times" reported that more troops would vote for biden than trump. that's why we have to support the military. they're the backbone of the country. so let them vote and let's vote for them.

kasie hunt an endorsement from general mcchrystal for joe biden.military leader who is expressing concern about the president has commander in chief, obviously for valid, good reasons. but breaking news today. and actually, because of past criticisms, because of past conflicts that actually makes this endorsement all the more impressive. >> well, and joe be, you know, think you heard from general mcchrystal, an explanation even though he may have at times been frustrated and was captured on tape and ultimately lost his job because of that criticism, it took place in a completely different context. because of the way that president obama and vice president biden were approaching not just running the government and making national security decisions but our very democracy. i think when you think about the way that our veterans across the board and the generals cited, the troops that he would wait for them to eat, before he would eat and the values that are taught and the reason why people put their lives on the line for our country, what are they --

i'm proud to announce that i have the endorsement of general mcchrystal and i know you know him well because he believes that our better days are hot of us -- are ahead of us and we need someone who not only understands peace, but understands how precious our forces are. i'm going to get back to the issue at hand as it relates to the guns as well. , nobody isn is asking for you to vote for the charleston loophole bill, but the indifference to our citizens who lost their lives, why don't you bring the bill up for a debate and consideration in the committee? you are the chairman. the most powerful person on the issue of judicial issues. your constituents lost their lives. about the weight each of you have conducted your campaigns. after the confirmation hearings that you said would not have been two years ago before an election, you did an interview with reporters in the halls of a congressional office building and asked you where to donate to garvey election campaign. the former debbie counsel said defy rules. you repeatedly referenced the campaign during those hearings. do you believ

mean again we have laws to protect the french citizen from those things to happen and whatever if mcchrystal king about it now and again that's a good thing but if he doesn't have the courage to implement the rules and regulations then we will continue to see the situation i mean when we have someone you know does say that it's ok to you to decapitate another person i mean there's no there's no room for for for discussion. has decided to talk about it and that's a good thing however in terms of acts i think we're far from what should be done one of the major issues that you know that can describe the situation we're in right now it's mess of immigration and that's not uncontroversial to. washington and moscow are at odds over the extension to a major nuclear arms control treaty after the u.s. pushed back against vladimir putin's proposal to continue it without preconditions for another year nikky or and has more. well as the clock ticks on the last remaining u.s. russian arms control treaty the united states and russia remain locked in what seems to be a stalemates one last go is suggesting

the time or not this is totally different issue we know the you know the problem with the less mcchrystalit has become you know of course a weapon anyone can use use this law to under my door open and so i think the more they use the law let me address it the more it could damage reputation of the one and that has been the issue the problem with the time or not you for so long jed august suggesting that this monica is using laws against its own people that may well but 5 to be the less majesty lowered and the community any criticism of the of the monarchy you could face 15 years in jail is the monocle the setting his powers . well no and i think i have 20 aspects to discuss here i i can agree with the when the 1st aspect that the some of the politicians and perhaps some of what part of the establishment in a long time of the thai history throughout many many coup step that happen and use the list majestic laws to suppress its opponents that i can agree with and i think that's wrong in itself and i don't think that has something to do with king rama that tends our current king directly at

plus someone who knows about leadership, retired general stanley mcchrystal will join the conversationll in one disposable pad. just vacuum, spray mop, and toss. the shark vacmop, a complete clean all in one disposable pad. - oh.- oh, darn! - wha- let me help. here we go. lift and push and push! there... it's up there. oh, boy. hey joshie... wrinkles send the wrong message. help prevent them before they start with downy wrinkleguard. hey! bud. hey, pop pop! so you won't get caught with wrinkles again.
