Former Secretary of State and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Colin Powell endorsed Joe Biden. According to Reuters, he’s the first major Republican to publicly go against President Donald Trump. Powell said Trump “drifted away” from the U.S. Constitution and poses a threat to America and its democracy. He said: “I cannot in any way support President Trump this year.” Powell did not vote for Trump in 2016 and announced he would vote for Biden.
