🐘The GOP’s 2028 dark horse might be a 36-year-old former quarterback you’ve never heard of.
He left Fox News to work for free on Trump’s long-shot 2016 campaign, and by 29 he was in charge of political appointments in the executive branch.
Today he’s an Irish American with millions of young followers and an insider’s knowledge of Washington.
This is the story of John McEntee 🧵

On Veterans Day we recall:
58% of Medal of Honor recipients have been Irish
Over 50% of foreign born recipients were Irish born
5 of 19 of the two time recipients were Irish Catholics
The most decorated Chaplain in US Military history was an Irish Catholic priest
GREATEST ALLY 🇮🇪 🇺🇸
✝️St. Columba: the Irish saint who left his homeland and helped bring Christianity to Scotland 🏴
In 563, a monk named Colum Cille left Ireland with twelve companions. He was a Donegal man of royal blood, a descendant of the powerful Uí Néill, and he could have had a comfortable life at home. Instead he sailed north to Iona, a small island off the west coast of Scotland, and made it his home for the rest of his life.
The old stories say he left in penance. A quarrel over a copied book of psalms is said to have ended in the Battle of Cúl Dreimne in 561, where thousands died, and Columba blamed himself. Exiled by his own conscience, he made it his work to win as many souls for Christ as had been lost on that field.
The monastery he built on Iona became one of the great centers of faith and learning in early medieval Europe. The Book of Kells was most likely begun there by his spiritual heirs. Columba preached to the Picts and travelled to the court of their king, Bridei. After his death, monks from Iona carried the faith into northern England and founded Lindisfarne.
Columba died on Iona in 597. Fourteen centuries later, pilgrims still make the crossing.
The faith of Ireland was never kept on one small island. Irish monks carried it across the water and helped rebuild Christian Europe, and their sons and daughters have been carrying it ever since.
St. Columba, pray for us. ☘️
The future of Irish America will not be secured by nostalgia. It rests on whether the next generation understands that we are a distinct people, and whether they will cherish the tradition that makes us so.
This is the work before us: to carry our inheritance and place it in the hands of the youth of Irish America.

Incredible thread by @NationhoodRC. I encourage anyone who wants to know more about John McEntee to read it.

This guy’s story is unbelivable!
As an European who deeply follows American politics, I think the future should pass by somebody like John McEntee! 🐎

In Jan 2025, I wrote that Trump 2.0 was already over. I warned Irish nationalists not to jump on that global Trumpian band wagon as it would be incredibly short-sided and disastrous in the long-term.
In June 2025, I wrote that Mamdani’s win represented the first sign of a bigger trend of left populism that could beat out right populism. The combination of this positive trend with the Trump 2.0 negative trend would be bad.
Now, the midterms proved exactly what I predicted. Trump 2.0 right populism got rekt and left populism made gains. I foresee that Europe will go the same way.
If anyone in the Irish populist right thought they would make electoral gains or receive meaningful material support off of cozying up to the Trump 2.0 sphere then they were severely mistaken.
What came next was classic Trump in retrospect. He turned on the project, turning against the very people who believed in his America First vision.
“I know nothing about Project 2025,” Trump said, calling parts of it “absolutely ridiculous and abysmal.”
His campaign managers, Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita, said it should not be associated with him “in any way.” Then they won, and the plan they had disowned got picked apart for parts.
Its policies and some of its authors made it into the administration, but the people who knew how to staff a government and make the Washington machine deliver were left out. McEntee, who had already run the personnel office once and spent years preparing to do it again, was passed over.
Wiles, the campaign manager who had run from the plan, became Chief of Staff. The failures of this Admin show us an obvious mistake was made.
This week, the reckoning arrived. Republicans lost the House. They lost the Senate. In Texas, a Democrat beat Ken Paxton despite $224 million from Elon Musk to save him. Kansas sent a Democrat to the Senate for the first time in decades. Trump’s approval among midterm voters was just 38%, and 89% said the cost of living drove their vote.
Voters didn’t change their minds about what they want, they gave up waiting for the GOP to deliver on their promises. The Trump administration has spent two years fighting a foreign war while families fought over grocery bills.
It's clear that if the Republicans want a political future in the United States, they need people who know how the machine works and never forget who it’s meant to serve.
A potential Irish American dark horse for 2028? Time will tell ⏳

Young people continue to flee Ireland in massive numbers
The Repeal the 8th leadership promised to end young people leaving our shores, with promises of a new abortutopia
But they have made the problem worse
🇮🇪 Ireland is losing its young again.
Irish citizens emigrating, year to April:
2020: 25,000
2025: 35,000
That's up 40%, yet the Irish government continues to pour resources into supporting foreigners arriving in Ireland.
