Exclusive – Challenger Joe Kent: GOP Incumbent Is ‘Totally Chamber of Commerce’
Breitbart News ^ | 7 Mar 2022 | Neil Munro

Posted on 03/25/2022 6:19:48 PM PDT by T Ruth

Republican Joe Kent is running on a populist platform for a seat in Congress, but first he must win his Washington state GOP primary against incumbent Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler and her corporate donors.

“She’s getting money from Google, she’s getting money from Amazon, she’s voting for amnesty … she’s supporting H-1B visas,” Kent told Breitbart News.

***

“It is something, I think, that we haven’t done a good job of on the right is talking about the moral obligation that we have to our own people,” he said. “Hey, what is the purpose of having a country? Are we simply just in an economy where we always do what is in the best interest of the economy and the GDP? [Gross Domestic Product] Or — and I argue this strongly — are we a sovereign nation-state that cares deeply about our people? We say the whole premise of us having a government and us having borders is that we are trying to do the best we can … for our people, and this is a moral obligation.”

***

Trump endorsed Kent, in part, because Herrera Beutler voted to impeach Trump.

***

Kent is ahead in the polls, according to a Trafalgar poll released February 15. The poll showed Kent with 26 percent, and Herrera Beutler at 22 percent.

“We’re leading in fundraising, with $1.3 million [in the bank], all raised through individual contributions, no corporate PAC money,” Kent said. “Right now the poll if the race was held, the incumbent wouldn’t even make it out of the primaries.” ***

***

In 2019, his widely-admired wife, Shannon Kent, was killed by a suicide bomber in Iraq, leaving two children with just their father.

The Cheap Labor Express just keeps chugging along. Corporatists are not in any way attached to the USA.
They are mostly Globalists who care only about their bottom line and a great many would sacrifice the firstborn sons to keep their bottom line maximized no matter what the long-term consequences.
It has always been a tough road in politics for American Patriots. These days it’s far far tougher. The self-absorbed have no morals. They will do whatever it takes to keep and gain more power. President Trump is a very rare breed of man. A Billionaire Patriot who loves our country and is willing to fight for her.
Thus, they mobilized against him to destroy him. 24/7/365. He was and is attacked from all sides yet, still, he fights.

I wish we had more people like Joe Kent in congress. His opponent, Jaime Herrera Beutler, has been a disaster.

The problem is that there’s a third Republican candidate in this race which makes it harder for Kent to win.

Trump wouldn’t have endorsed him if he was.

You fellas should scroll down just 3 posts to find the answer. That’s post #10.

BTW, I’m not supporting the incumbent, either. She’s a phony, and so is Kent. When he’s taking marching orders from the Demonrat loon in the race, you know this guy is rotten.

I live in Washington, two districts north. It’s funny someone from Tennessee telling us about Joe Kent, I haven’t heard ANYONE, accuse him of that bs you troll seems to have engineered. You’re messed up in your head. Joe Kent is a warrior, patriot and a Gold Star Husband , eff off smegma.

My location is irrelevant. Throwing a tantrum at me and being disgusting and acting like a petulant child won’t change facts, either. This guy was sold as a hero, and he’s turned out to be a phony. Another establishment hack ready, willing and able to do their bidding in Congress and to sell us out. Sadly, President Trump prematurely endorsed a questionable phony and carpetbagger in my district as well without knowing all the facts.

You’ve addressed none of the points in the article, so your claim you’ve head no one accuse Kent of being a phony is false.

You seem obsessed with my location, as if that has anything to do with Joe Kent’s record and the article exposing him as a fraud. You said you don’t live in this district, either, so by your own definition, you have no right to an opinion on this race. Hypocrite much ?

I don’t give a rats ass about you. Other than your a damned liar and meddling in areas you need to stay out of, other than that you’re as significant as the blonde hair on Brandon’s leg. Understand my position now troll?

Besides your being a senile, foul-mouthed bully, thug, liar, “keyboard kommando” and odious hypocrite, you have yet to address a SINGLE POINT that was posted in that article. Put up or shut up.

I’m a troll ? I’ve been here since 1998. I’ve been posting since before you arrived. I’ve got well over a hundred and twenty thousand posts, many analyzing political races going back decades all over the country. That’s my specialty, and I’ve got countless folks here who can attest to that. But I’ve outlasted similar countless blowhards and nutjob trolls on FR with lots of bluster and no facts to back them up.

Why you’re so eager to replace one RINO phony with another, and flipping out like Will Smith’s little hissy fit last night on tv calls into question what your agenda is. Who’s paying you off ? Or is Joe your boyfriend ? Needless to say, he isn’t fit to serve. Just another lying weasel who’ll say anything to get elected, someone who badmouthed good Conservatives like the AFPAC attendees, which included true patriots like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. If you’re typical of his thug supporters, all the more reason he has no business anywhere near a position of power.

You have a nice day, Brandon.
