White House Boosts Post Calling Joe Kent a ‘Loser’ and ‘Crazed Egomaniac’ After He Resigns in Protest From Trump Admin

Joe Kent resigned opposing the Iran war, calling it unjustified and influenced by Israel; White House aides then labeled him a "loser" and "crazed egomaniac."

  • On Tuesday, the White House boosted a post calling Joe Kent a 'loser' and a 'crazed egomaniac' after he resigned from the Trump administration.
  • Kent wrote that he could not 'in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran', arguing Iran posed no imminent threat and blamed Israel and its American lobby for starting it.
  • A veteran who deployed 11 times, Kent said he is a Gold Star husband who lost his wife Shannon in a war he described as manufactured by Israel.
  • Taylor Budowich, former Deputy White House Chief of Staff, published the initial rant alleging Kent leaked national security information, which Noah Pollak, Department of Education senior adviser, reposted and Jake Schneider, special assistant to the president, retweeted shortly after Kent's announcement.
  • Shortly after Kent's announcement, administration aides amplified the attack, with Schneider retweeting the post and AP reporting the White House boost.
