Add me to the ranks of retired flag officers who believe that Dona ld Trump is indeed “fascist to the core".

We are not ones to toss the word “fascist” around mindlessly. When we do so, it is only after very careful consideration, and only in the most urgent of circumstances. [VoteVets] {NAME}, retired Major General Paul Eaton here. I hope you saw the reporting from Bob Woodward's latest book, where retired Army General Mark Milley called Donald Trump a “fascist to the core.” This man is no stranger to Trump. General Milley was appointed by Trump, personally, as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. For a four-star Army General to use General Milley’s language is extraordinary. Words like “fascist” aren't tossed around lightly in the military, especially from top-ranking Generals. We're all acutely aware of those who came before us and fought World War II to stop the march of fascism. We know the horrors of fascism and what it unleashes on innocent people. We know how it kills democracies, like the one we swear to defend from all enemies, foreign and domestic. We are not ones to toss the word “fascist” around mindlessly. When we do so, it is only after very careful consideration, and only in the most urgent of circumstances. In just over 20 days, the American voters will have to make a very serious decision, if they have not already done so. Voters are going to either stop Trump once and for all, or help him usher in a new era of American fascism. VoteVets has an important role to play in that decision. We are running $1.6 million on digital and television advertising against Trump and in support of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz as you read this, because we understand how important it is to reach voters directly. VoteVets has the tools, messengers, and expertise it’s going to take to persuade voters to make the right decision. But we need your help to mobilize the resources it will take to pay for it. [So, I am humbly asking you to make a $5 donation to VoteVets as we take the fight to Trump, as we work to move undecided and persuadable voters, in these final weeks of what is certain to be the most important election of our lives.]( If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly: [Rush $10 now]( [Rush $25 now]( [Rush $50 now]( [Rush $100 now]( [Rush $250 now]( [Another Amount]( In so many countries throughout history, we have seen fascism take hold only because the voters enabled it. Voters are the ultimate guardrail against fascism. If the voters fall, so will the Republic. And God save us all if that happens. That’s why the work VoteVets is doing is so important, and why your donation — especially today — will have a serious impact. Thank you in advance for chipping in. Maj. Gen.
