Washington (CNN)More than two dozen former Republican lawmakers announced Monday they are endorsing Joe Biden for president.
Former Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona and former Rep. Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania are among those throwing their support behind the Democratic presidential nominee through "Republicans for Biden," and the endorsements come on the morning of the first day of the Republican National Convention.
Biden has repeatedly emphasized Republican support as he looks to build a broad coalition in his campaign against President Donald Trump.

Finally. Because I’ve been breathlessly awaiting Flake’s endorsement. I mean, hasn’t everybody?
OMG - even the Republicans are against Trump now! He’s done for, the walls are closing in!
CNN really thinks this is news? The opposition of these Deep-State war-mongering RINO weasels is to me an overwhelming endorsement for Trump’s re-election.
If after four years in office Trump had won these money-grubbing a-holes over to his side I would know for sure that he was compromised and useless.
Yes, Skelos was (and is) a jerk.
And, the sound of applause for their bravery is? Non-existent. They do not matter. They could not possibly be more irrelevant. They are among the last remnant of the Globalist Bush Republicans going the way of the Whig Party.
Probably true? But, in perfect CNN style, I’m not seeing the list or a link to the list of “more than two dozen” Pubbies against Trump...
Of course, this means that the world is collapsing around DJT and CNN finally has something on Trump to get him out of office...
Such a pity for Brian Stelter when he has DJT another 4 years...
Many of them realized their mistake and are now back on the team. Unfortunately some of them are lost causes.
Trump, the master troll, has exposed the uniparty. This speaks to,
BTW, why I’m no longer a Republican, but am a Trump supporter.
All ninety two pages, including early childhood education, or at least that is what they call it.
Not seeing a complete list of these swamp creatures anywhere.
They still don’t understand that they are also the reason Donald Trump got elected. People are sick of that culture in Washington.
“...Useful idiot RINOs whom will be tossed aside by the Dems once the Election is over. These same RINOs backed BLM, and are now registered Democrats. However in the Democratic Party they are called DINOs...”
Yep. One thing President Trump has done is flush these traitors out into the open. Otherwise, they’d have continued their underhandedness without any real disability or accountability within the GOPe.
Now, they are radioactive to the GOP and the communist RATs will only use them to a point while never trusting em either, then discard em like a diaper full of baby poo. They’re finished politically.
The poll shows the horse race unchanged since a week ago. There was a small bump in Bidens favorability.
Leave the party then you “former” republicans.
Some others on the list had already backed the former vice president, including former Republican Sens. Gordon Humphrey of New Hampshire (who is now an independent) and John Warner of Virginia.

Steve Bartlett of Texas, Bill Clinger of Pennsylvania, Tom Coleman of Missouri, Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania, Charles Djou of Hawaii, Mickey Edwards of Oklahoma, Wayne Gilchrest of Maryland, Jim Greenwood of Pennsylvania, Bob Inglis of South Carolina, Jim Kolbe of Arizona, Steve Kuykendall of California, Ray LaHood of Illinois (who served as Transportation secretary in the Obama administration), Jim Leach of Iowa, Connie Morella of Maryland, Mike Parker of Mississippi, Jack Quinn of New York, Claudine Schneider of Rhode Island, Chris Shays of Connecticut, Peter Smith of Vermont, Alan Steelman of Texas, Bill Whitehurst of Virginia, Dick Zimmer of New Jersey, and Jim Walsh of New York.

I wonder when/if they will return all the RNC contributions to their election campaigns.
I mean-you can’t have it BOTH ways, right?
