A Growing List of Over 200 Retired Generals and Admirals Endorse Donald J. Trump for President
[Richmond, Virginia] [September 30, 2024]: Today, over 200 retired generals and admirals are endorsing Donald J. Trump to be president. This list grows as an increasing number of retired military leaders recognize Trump has demonstrated the leadership ability needed to provide for the safety and security of the United
States of America. Donald Trump has a proven track record of success providing the most fundamental responsibilities required of a U.S. President: protecting national security, domestic safety, and the U.S. Constitution.
The current administration, led by the President and Vice President, has allowed our nation to become unsecure, our citizens unsafe, and our country divided due to the cultural war being waged across America in the form of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).This divisive domestic strife is dividing our Country, allowing our foreign adversaries to take advantage of the political/social disorder in America. A recent bipartisan congressional report “Commission on the National Defense Strategy” said: “The United States confronts the most serious and the most challenging threats since the end of World War II. The United States could in short order be drawn into a war across multiple theaters with peer and near-peer adversaries, and it could lose.”
Our adversaries watched the Afghanistan debacle unfold and concluded the Administration is weak based on decisions made in the White House situation room. Since then, China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, and global terrorists are rapidly expanding their capabilities and aggressiveness. These same adversaries are watching how DEI is being forced into our military as it divides service members instead of uniting them into cohesive teams, resulting in decreased warfighting readiness.
As president, Donald Trump took executive action to eliminate such harmful programs from the Defense Department and will do it again. We are at a historic crossroad where we must either choose to stand for our Constitution and its underlying traditional values which have made America the greatest nation on earth, or we continue down the path the current administration’s top leadership is taking into the abyss of socialism and authoritarian cultural Marxism. The choices in this election have never been more clear.
We urge our fellow Americans to join us in supporting the election of Donald J. Trump for president. Our future is at stake.
The growing list of over 200 retired U.S. generals and admirals endorsing Donald J. Trump for President are a part of Flag Officers 4 America, an all-volunteer group of retired military flag officers working to uphold the oath they took to support and defend the U.S. Constitution. www.flagofficers4america.com

I published this for two reasons. First, I know some of the generals who signed this declaration. Second, it hasn’t gotten much exposure. Considering the media hoopla over letters of support for candidates by other groups of former national security professionals, I felt this deserved a share.
Eric Graves
I’m really sorry Eric, but I just don’t trust the validity of it. Some of these figures haven’t been heard of in years.
e.g. MG John D. Logeman who was born in 1918 and I think would have gained a lot more coverage if he was still alive.
Perhaps the fact that it hasn’t got exposure, is because it isn’t completely accurate…
P.s pls don’t call me ‘not a real person’
It’s great to see the liberals still obsessing over this. That gives it plenty of validity.
You aren’t even good at google. Perhaps you aren’t a real person after all. Believe it or not, there has been more than one guy by that same name who became a flag officer. Way to besmirch MG Joh D Logeman, USAF.
Bro if you actually did your research on AF.MIL (which surely you would think is reputable) you would find there is only one.
You know as well as I do that it takes around 20 years to become a major general, IF THAT, and the likelihood of someone having exactly the same name and NOT BEING ON RECORD AS A LEADING MILITARY OFFICER is very low.
Smells like you’re a RUSSIAN
Harold, you say he “smells like a Russian”? Well does that mean you smell like you’re uninformed? John Logeman graduated from the Univ. of Wisconsin in 1961. He entered the AF then. He wasn’t born in 1918. Sorry but you have your facts wrong. https://www.oklahoman.com/story/news/1989/01/09/general-to-get-2nd-star/62627698007/
Harold is what you call an agent provacateur. He stirs the shit because he is told to by his betters. He doesn’t have to be right, it’s not in the job description.
Apparently so. I posted the letter to another website, not a political one, and the leftists there all gave the regular “Oh, the letter is fake” response. The left cannot be reasoned with and they don’t facts unless some leftist outlet lies to them and then they run with the lies and promote those lies as facts. We need a SOLID leader who supports the military completely. Donald Trump does. Thanks for your letter and I hope this election turns out as it should and that we finally rebuild the military the way it needs and deserves.
You have your facts wrong there Harold. MG John D. Logeman wasn’t born in 1961, since he entered the Air Force in 1961, where he came from the University of Wisconsin ROTC. I doubt he was 43 at the time he entered the Air Force right after college. You might want to get your facts correct before you start challenging others using totally incorrect information. Here, for your education about the man.
I think you need to check your facts. Major general John Logerman who signed this was not born in 1918. He was commissioned in 1961 and served through the 90s.
Endorsing the dude who bragged about Israeli intel to the Russian foreign minister?
The dude who admires China and North Korea’s presidents for life and wishes America could have that?
The dude who stacked classified docs in his bathroom, lied about it and showed them off to random rich people?
That guy?
Oof. No shit these flag officers can’t win wars if that the kind of judgement they have and the kind of leadership they admire for the people that serve under them.
John,
Well said.
Eric the list is not that impressive. Why don’t you publish the list of how Endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris?
First, I appreciate you being a real person, unlike John above.
As for your question, the answer is two-fold. As I already commented, that list is well publicized and readily available. What’s more, it consists of over 700 members from across the National security enterprise, not just retired military flag officers. At 700, most of the signers are inconsequential. Of those who are, they include men who have lied to Congress about illegal surveillance as well as to the American people about the Hunter Biden laptop. Collectively, they have worked as an unelected body outside of checks and balances to undermine our constitutional form of governance.
Hey Eric,
I assure you I’m real. Long time reader too, so I’m not surprised of your defense of Trump. Nevertheless, I appreciate the industry coverage.
Sincerely.
Made up name at made up name dot com doesn’t exactly imbue confidence in personhood.
As for defending Trump? Show me where I have. I presented a piece of news. You’ve construed it as an endorsement. I haven’t publicly endorsed anyone.
BRO. WHO ARE YOU?? Only interesting people with some sort of public relevance are allowed to ‘endorse’. No one accused of endorsing because you can’t!!
I’m not your bro. I don’t know you and you obviously don’t know me. You’re just some rando who decided out of the 30,000 posts on this website that this is the one he just had to comment on first. Who are you to think that your opinion matters?
Ok, my G. I came to this because I’m actually doing good and helping both the Harris and Trump citations on the Wikipedia endorsements page.
I get to the Trump military endorsements and find them from some dude who was born in 1918 (I smell a rat or maybe it’s just Eric). It doesn’t make sense, so I follow the scent back to you and your deluded world in which you speak with top military leaders of America and are able to ‘endorse’ someone.
In the words of Aerosmith (sorry I know it’s not Lee Greenwood), DREAM ON!!
The Turing test failure that is the two posts made as “John” seem to show otherwise.
Unproven or exaggerated accusations as well as court-disproven ones.
I got scared there for a minute. I’m thankful for the responses above. I’m a lifelong conservative and while I certainly don’t agree with a lot of the Dem proposals, having spent 37 years in law enforcement, I can’t support “the dude” and wannabe “leaders” (some former military officers in my district) who feel they can’t get elected to Congress and the Senate by showing leadership but instead hanging on the coattails of “the dude.”
SSD thanks for sharing the otherside of this.
To Eric B, disregard dem “proposals” and just check the track record. KH/Bidens been a disaster by every measure.
Blatant disregard for the rule of law. Wide open borders. Disastrous foreign policy. Unchecked foreign aid to sworn enemies. We could go on for days.
As an American ask yourself is the world safer for us and our Allies today or was it safer 4 or 6 years ago?
Has Americas standing in the world increased or decreased in the last 4 years? 2 years? Is your dollar gaining or losing in spending power?
How does the dems destruction of national security and deprioritizing Americans right here in the USA align with your supposed conservative values and lifelong career in law enforcement?
But ya..let’s worry about career politicians being suddenly concerned about having to recognize their lobbyists interests may not align with the citizens they serve. The folks in DC have lead us down the wrong path. Its time to recognize it. Trump may not be perfect but he’s certainly better than the alternative.
Something something Orange man bad.
I highly doubt this person is what he says he is. Given that this is more or less an anonymous website, anyone can claim to be anything. This “as a lifelong conservative and 37 years in LE” yarn reeks of the propaganda bots you see on Twitter or Facebook
So, Trump is a better alternative, huh? You mean the guy who cozied up to Putin and practically handed him an invitation to invade Ukraine by undermining NATO and withholding aid to Kyiv? The same guy who destabilized relations in the Middle East by assassinating an Iranian general, nearly sparking a war, and then backed out of the Iran nuclear deal—making the region even more volatile?
Let’s not forget his stellar foreign policy that alienated allies and made dictators grin ear to ear. Yeah, totally the guy who “strengthened” our standing in the world… if you like instability and global chaos as your metric for success.
But sure, keep blaming the current administration while conveniently ignoring the mess left behind. Trump was no saint, and his actions have consequences we’re still dealing with.
Why would your claimed time in law enforcement matter? Trump isn’t the one trying to take LEO money, make it harder for them to arrest offenders, and then turning said offenders loose.
Hey, what did I do? Kidding aside, Americans are learning that while our “leaders” are sending money and resources left and right to every which nation around the world, they somehow can’t go down the road to disaster areas right here at home, or pick up the simple solutions for our borders they abandoned long ago. We need Americans for America, and nothing else will suffice.
Get your testosterone levels checked Nathan. Real men don’t vote for the party of angry women and weak men.
Real men don’t vote for draft dodging, fortunate sons.
So I should vote for the party who has a VP candidate that never carried weapons in war, but said he did? I’ll take the combat correspondent instead.
It’s interesting, you talk about boomer nonsense but then bring up the draft, which is a boomer thing.
Why would the list need to be “impressive”? Endorsement are only platitudes, and if you’re swayed by them, you shouldn’t ever hold any kind of position of responsibility.
I suppose we’ll ignore the disingenuous nature of the “admire China and North Korea” comment, and the fact that nothing of consequence was recovered from Trump’s house in terms of “classified documents”. I seem to remember Biden having stuff in his office at the University of Delaware, completely open to foreign compromise.
It was legal for Trump to possess those documents, being a former President. It was not legal for Biden to, as the VP has no such protections or privileges. Where is the evidence he showed them off to anyone?
As for the “Israeli” intelligence, there’s no proof of that either. Anonymous “officials with knowledge of the situation” does not constitute evidence, as anyone can make up a story with such “sources” and claim it to be true.

Just to be sure, you’re for open borders and endless wars? You’re for crushing debt and the denial of free speech? You’re fine with mutilating children with experimental surgeries and the inability to define a woman?
That’s your choice. Mean tweets or all of the above, and more.
I choose liberty.
He addressed that. He said KH’s get plenty of exposure, but this one has not.

I do not think this belongs here. More of a personal facebook thing. I thought of this as a professional industry source, my assessment appears wrong.
Hasn’t happened in a quite a while.
This is the kind of boomer idiocy that belongs on Facebook, not an industry daily.
Endorsements aside and which list is “better”, from a national security perspective, I’ve never felt less secure than with our current leadership. I read a compelling/convincing article about how we’re closer to a nuclear weapon popping off now than when JFK was in office. Now if that were to happen, who has the keys and the football? Who gets the call? Love the dude or hate the dude, at least he was the dude. I think if you have a Raytheon exec in your neighborhood and suddenly they head to the lake house – you might know what’s up. Me – not so much. But what do I know …
Finally, a few (more than a few!) good men.
You better vote in November, the other side hates the USA.

Our forefathers gave everything to set us all up for greatness. We need to take care of our country. This is an incredibly unique place in the world and in history. Let’s not give it up because of feelings or because the television overlords tell us to.
I appreciate you posting this, as I do think it’s newsworthy. It’s unfortunate that I just spent 45 minutes crawling the Ashville, NC subreddit trying to find statements about how involved the Feds are, merely because what is “newsworthy” like a giant storm has barely hit the media. We were in a post-truth world, now it’s a post-news world. What a time to be alive. So, independent platforms like this highlighting any sort of factual information is valuable, regardless of the candidate or politics involved. Though, as a former enlistedmen I don’t have a ton of esteem for flag officers or their opinions. Either way, thank you!
Only machines vote (D).
Flag Officers 4 America (FO4A) is an idea. An illusion of one guy and a shitty HTML website. There are zero actual names attached to this letter, just as there are zero actual names to found anywhere in the FO4A website.
The reality is, this letter doesn’t get any media attention because it’s void of substance. It could just as easily say 10,000 “flag officers” have endorsed Trump, or a million have. Or, two have. They’d all be lies.
ONE has – maybe. That’s if the author is an actual retired “Admiral” or “Flag Officer”.
Any of you who take this shit seriously are just flat-out-dumb.
Until 200 names are published, this is all rubbish and fantasy.
Trump is a cnut, folks. The continued hero-worship so many of you have for the man is bizarre.
You simple dipshit, just read the article and click on the link at the bottom. It’s got the entire list of generals who have signed the declaration. Fucking liberals.
The Trump supporters are ignorant and they lie. Border security was better before Trump, and Trump’s moronic agreement with the Taliban resulted in 13 dead Americans, along with his lies resulting in thousands of dead civilians. The suicide bomber would still have been in prison if Trump didn’t agree to release him while Americans were still in the country. It’s a shame there are so many ignorant former military. They can’t back up their ridiculous assertions. The country was far better off before Trump.
Trump took classified documents on his waymout the door (likely for transactional purposes), kept them in an unsecure location and when pressed to return them refused, danced around waving the middle finger, and then ultimately obstructed justice.
No,way this fraud should be trusted with narional security.
