OCT 2, 2022 — John McEntee pulls no punches in this conversation with Breitbart, calling out the weak links inside the Trump-era political ranks. As former head of the White House Presidential Personnel Office, McEntee reflects on why the problem wasn’t disloyalty—it was conformity.

He lays out what it would take to build a team that actually delivers—and why future administrations need fighters, not followers.
