[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Riding around my neighborhood, I only saw one Jay Jones sign. [/quote]

Most normal people would be embarrassed to admit they support the creep. [/quote]

I’m curious what are your thoughts about Donald Trump saying at a campaign event about Liz Cheney, “ Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let’s see how she feels about it ... when the guns are trained on her face.” Or his “funny” birthday note to Epstein about what they have “in common”written on a sketch of a girls body. I’m not sure why you’re not raising hell about the many, many public statements made by Trump inciting violence. However, you’re very, very concerned about the impacts of these private texts.[/quote]

Sure. He was saying she wouldn’t be such a war hawk if she had to go to war herself and deal with what our soldiers deal with. But I suspect either you know that but the cherry picked excerpt sounds words (unlike Jay Jones), or you’re too lazy to find the truth (which is more likely). [/quote]

Here’s more of the quote, “ “I don’t blame [Dick Cheney] for sticking with his daughter, but his daughter is a very dumb individual, very dumb. She is a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face.”. You can’t claim that every irresponsible and violent thing said by a republican is “taken out of context”. At some point, republicans need to take responsibility for their words.[/quote]
Here’s the fault with that logic for many people though: I’ve never voted for Trump and would never vote for Trump. The fact that other people have voted for Trump despite him saying batshit things is not going to make me vote for someone else who has said batshit crazy things just because he’s anti-Trump.[/quote]

What about all the batshit crazy things that Trump has done? You can vote for the candidate that supports Trump’s bat shit crazy or the one that doesn’t. Given what’s at stake for VA, much less for the country, I’m voting for anything that puts a bump on the tracks to slow down the crazy train. [/quote]
Again, I never have voted for Trump because I think he’s crazy. I’m looking specifically at the AG for VA. I have lived in this state with Youngkin as our governor and Miyares as our AG and nothing terrible has happened to us as Virginians that our AG or governor could have prevented (the same as Wes Moore and Anthony Brown in MD). Now we are likely to have a Dem governor in Spanberger (who I am more than happy to vote for) so I just am not seeing what benefit there is to voting for Jay Jones who is absolutely unfit to be AG. [/quote]

Did you know that Miyares didn’t join in any class action litigation against Trump over the illegal firings of feds? Any court rulings to the benefit of federal employees will not benefit Virginians (not to mention won’t join any litigation pushing back against Trump). He very obviously doesn’t give a crap about the blue part of Virginia here in NOVA.

Youngkin’s response to DOGE and mass firings of so many of his constituents has been a joke. I attended some jobs thing he bragged about and it was basically a bunch of unskilled, low wage hourly jobs or links to the websites of the major government contractors who a) and doing layoffs or not really hiring and b) I could have easily found myself.

I think Virginia republicans really messed up rolling over for Trump and allowing for the decimation of the job market in NOVA. I saw some traction for a more moderate/Republican state government after so many liberal parents were pissed about extended school closures. But those gains have been lost and I won’t be sad to vote all blue on my ballot. [/quote]
