Letter: Kent is not who we need in Congress

By Richard Raitano, La Center

Joe Kent: friend of Donald Trump and Steve Bannon, men who have set this country ablaze over the last few years. Bannon wants to drown the government, Trump wants to rule over it. Both men are willing to create violent chaos and treason to achieve their goals.

Joe believes women have no rights over their own bodies’ needs. He mocks vaccines, calling them “experimental gene therapy.” He defends the insurrectionists arrested, calling them “political prisoners.”

Joe is the darling of white nationalist groups, and is not who we need in our state’s government, or in Washington, D.C.
