Another day, another abrupt desertion from the rapidly sinking Trumptanic. After the Director of National Counterterrorism, Joe Kent, bailed on his Conman-in-Chief, Donald Trump. Posting to X that he will be leaving his position, effective immediately. Which is about as courageous as emailing your resignation letter to Elon Musk, so HE can secretly drop it on Trump’s desk when he’s busy changing his diaper. Now, before we start applauding Kent for admitting that, “Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation.” You should realize that Kent’s newfound awakening only means his political ideology now lies somewhere between Marjorie Taylor Greene and Hitler. Sure, he called out Trump’s baseless war in Iran, but it appears his rationale was based far less on his patriotism than on his natural inability to not say, “Gimmie your 12 best Jew donuts,” when ordering a dozen bagels at Dunks. So, while yes, a-win’s a-win. Trump’s anti-Semitic nominee quitting, and calling this entire MAGA regime liars on the way out the door, feels more like Snooki-hitting-the-Daily-Double-on-Celebrity-Jeopardy, dumb luck. So, I’d be careful what you wager on Trump’s replacement. I certainly wouldn’t double down on their qualifications. Because I imagine the resume of Joe Kent’s sloppy-seconds wouldn’t even amount to kindling for a dumpster fire, let alone a LinkedIn profile.
