A top Trump loyalist just walked away – and he’s accusing the president of betraying everything he once promised. Joe Kent, a decorated Green

Joe Kent’s resignation lands like a thunderclap because it comes from inside Trump’s own war machine. This is not a liberal critic or a distant bureaucrat; it’s a decorated Green Beret,
a CIA veteran, and the man who ran America’s terrorist watchlists. For years,
he defended Trump’s foreign policy as a necessary course correction after Iraq and Afghanistan. Now he says the Iran war repeats the very deceptions he once fought to expose.
His break is not abstract. Kent’s wife died in a bombing in Syria, a loss he believed would never be repeated if Washington finally learned from its mistakes. Watching Trump, under pressure from Israel and its
U.S. lobby, launch another war on claims of an “imminent threat”
shattered that faith. By walking away,
Kent is forcing a brutal question into the open: if even Trump’s most loyal warriors say this war isn’t worth one more American life, who is it really for?
