WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Dozens of Republican former U.S. national security officials are forming a group that will back Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, people familiar with the effort said, in a further sign that President Donald Trump has alienated some members of his own party.
The group will publicly endorse Biden in the coming weeks and its members plan to campaign for the former vice president who is challenging Trump in the Nov. 3 election, the sources said. It includes at least two dozen officials who served under Republican Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, with dozens more in talks to join, the sources added.
They will argue that another four years of a Trump presidency would endanger U.S. national security and that Republican voters should view Biden as the better choice despite policy differences, the sources said.

Until they publicly identify themselves and explain their reasoning, will remain very dubious about this “story”.
Neocons were most of the GOP foreign policy leaders under George W Bush. They gave us the Iraq war
I'm not sure why people keep swallowing these fake stories.
Partisan Media Shills update.
As an old-school newspaperman, any time I see Reuters in the byline, I take the story with a grain of salt.
Scratch that — I reach for the whole damn shaker.
Most of them signed letters backing Hillary Clinton in 2016
First a corrupt woman who sold or frittered away US security to the highest bidder, let 4 Americans die in Benghazi and lied to the public and Congress about it
Now a decrepit senile man who touches women and girls in public...who never backed a successful foreign or domestic policy when he was whole
Yeah we trust their judgement
Granted. I’m thinking they were not true Conservatives. Neo or otherwise.
Yep. This is not about foreign policy at at all. It’s about open borders and unfair trade. THAT is why they hate Trump and those who elected him.
I heard the KKK in the South was reorganizing and fully Support Joe Biden.
The answer is always, “Follow the money!”
The same 50 who were blacklisted before.
War party is exposing itself.
The john mccain wing of the republican party.
Biden's policy differences are 180 degrees out of whack and it's the Obama/Biden administration's foreign policy and all their policies that profoundly endanger our country.
And the money to follow is DRUG money.
They know the Deep State will be running things, not Biden. Then they can continue looting the American public with impunity.
They aren’t Republicans, they’re political opportunists.
The extended article at the link names the ring leaders.
Don’t get confused folks.
They always were against us. Now they admit to going against
us to shake us.
