Top Trump aide made teen girls 'extremely uncomfortable' in online chats: report

John McEntee, a 34-year-old top Trump aide and the cofounder of a right-wing dating app, reportedly reached out to two teenage girls via social media and proceeded to push "conversations in directions that made them extremely uncomfortable and invited both, one repeatedly, to visit him in Los Angeles."

Grace Carter tells Wired that McEntee reached out to her via Instagram in October 2023, when she was an 18-year-old freshman at North Carolina State University.

McEntee, using the business Instagram account of the Right Stuff dating app, first reached out to Carter and offered her a free branded hoodie.

As the two continued to converse, he eventually invited her to visit him out in Los Angeles -- and wouldn't take no for an answer at first.

“I remember I told my boyfriend about it, and I was joking that he was going to be the other girl,” Carter tells Wired. “I was like, I could use a free trip, that’s initially why I kept the conversation going.”

In one message sent to Carter trying to entice her out to Los Angeles, McEntee tells her that “I think you’re a liberal” but then adds, “as long as you’ll be fun I don’t care.”

McEntee gave up on inviting Carter out to LA after she declined to meet him over winter break earlier this year, Wired writes.

Another woman, who wished to remain anonymous, similarly said that McEntee reached out to her when she was 18 and was apparently even more forward in his intentions than he was with Carter.

“It was very sexual from day one,” she claims. “He kept making comments about my age and how hot it would be to sleep with someone who was my age.”
