Timing
Sometimes successful publicity timing -- such as this. More than two dozen former Republican lawmakers have come out for Joe Biden on the first day of the Republican convention. It is obvious they are intent on destroying the impact of the virtual gathering and looking for media interviews in the middle of the event to condemn President Trump. They will get them too. Trump has done himself no favors in attacking reporters and editors over his years in the oval office. They have searched for dissension among Republicans and the announcement from the rebellious former politicians is made for TV. There is little Trump can do except to savage them verbally, which he will as he does to anyone who doesn't bow to him. Democratic strategists might have wished the former politicians would have endorsed Biden closer to the election when voters are less likely to forget but they will take it anyway.
