Leading Virginia Democrats, including the statewide ticket, have condemned the comments Jones made in 2022 suggesting a hypothetical scenario in which he would shoot the then-Republican House speaker and wished harm on his children.
Yes and all those dems who calling for him to withdraw are not most dems or they are most dems but they are lying to safe face because you collectively know exactly how they feel about you better than they do.
I’d probably still vote for him, not looking like he’s dropping out yet. Opinion definitely soured especially after he knew he texted the wrong person and kept at it anyways like he was too far into a rant to stop. Maybe he was drunk, angry enough, or thinks he’s right so why not say it all.
Donald’s got a mouth on him about other people he hates too, literally nothing else matters as long as he’s the republican standard bearer. Thank you for your attention to this matter
“In a joint statement Friday, Virginia Senate Majority Chair Mamie Locke (D) and state Senate President Pro Tempore Louise Lucas (D) said they “will not allow this moment to overshadow the stakes of this election or to distract from the urgent fight we are all in for Virginia’s lawmakers.”
some more “yes he talked about callously viciously murdering political adversaries…. but grrr… TRUMP ”
“The two senators condemned Jones’s remarks and noted there was no place for political violence, but they added that they know Jones and that the state “cannot afford another four years of Donald Trump and Jason Miyares dragging us backward.”
gawd
you know, these are the kinds of people who “oversee” elections.
just keep that in mind. even if for just a nanosecond
“The comments are completely indefensible. I’ve known Jay Jones for 25 years and those comments are very much out of character for him. So if I put the comments, which are clearly beyond the pale, against knowing this guy for 25 years, I’m still supporting Jay Jones.”
