From Trump Ally to Critic, Joe Kent’s Changing Path | Victor Davis Hanson

Joe Kent honorably served the United States during his 11 deployments to combat zones in the Middle East. Now, however, he has betrayed President Trump, the man who helped him have a political career as the director of the National Counterterrorism Center after two failed congressional campaigns, explains Victor Davis Hanson on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “He [Kent] wrote and said not only did he feel that the MAGA movement… was not being followed, but it was following Israel… So he bought right into ‘the Jews did it.’ And at that moment, a whole new world opened up for him. And he thinks that's quite a big world on the Right. It isn’t.” (00:00) Joe Kent Controversy (01:00) Show Intro and Health Update (08:30) Trumpism Iran Debate (40:59) Musk and TSA Standoff (42:30) Tax Wars and Culture Flashpoints (01:02:01)  Caesar Chavez and Closing Thoughts PROMOTIONS: 👉If Victor Davis Hanson is must-watch for you, The Signal Sitdown belongs in your feed.
