He won a really close primary over the Commonwealth’s Attorney for Henrico County who clearly needed better oppo research. The texts wouldn’t have leaked - clearly the Republican who received them was more interested in waiting until the last minute to help Miyares - but the reckless driving was out there. Jones is a young nepo baby who has no experience as a prosecutor.

Reminds me of Andrew Gillum winning over Gwen Graham.

How exactly is that similar?

DeSantis squeaked by Gillum the first time and Graham could have won. And Gillum had skeletons like Jones.

It’s amazing how both parties managed to put forth a crazy candidate this cycle. Given the state of national politics, we seem to have a major crisis in “player development.”

Are you referring to Sears? She didn’t have a primary and Jay Jones did.

The description of Jones as a nepo baby is spot on. He's the spoiled child of two well connected Black judges in Tidewater. He's had everything handed to him on a silver platter, and he's behaved like a teenager his entire life.

He doesn't really wish harm on Todd Gilbert or his family; it's just how an immature brat who spends too much time online talks. It's not that he's violent so much as that he's completely and utterly unqualified for AG. The people who defend him know this; they simply don't want to offend his parents and other Black Democratic leaders from the Hampton Roads area.

Unfortunately for the VA Democrats, people are watching and unless the Democrats cut him loose this cycle they are going to flip their votes for other races to punish the Democrats for their indulgence of Jones. Yes, it's going to help Miyares run for Governor in 2029, but Jones is simply unfit.

Hell no.

Because you're a Republican, rewarding creepy, abhorrent behavior should be very familiar to you.

And, please remember what "triggered" Jones to say all of this:

Todd Gilbert had given a nice eulogy to a Democrat. This was the trigger that caused Jones to go after him with such vitriol.

Troubling.

Dems see nothing wrong with this. That’s why they’re doubling down on him. Sadly, violence has become not only acceptable but welcome if it achieves their objectives. Don’t waste your breath trying to appeal to morality.

Republicans see nothing wrong with pedophilia and sexual assault. They doubled down on our current President despite (or because of?) his past here. If you cast your vote for him, that's the shame you need to forever live with. If these texts were from a Republican candidate, the candidate would just call it "fake news" and carry on.

Whataboutism. Cool. I’ll vote for something horrific because you voted for something that was trumped up as horrific, even though never proven, and was a campaign promise to get Trump…but it destroys your argument that you are superior people if you’re only doing something because the people who you call nazi’s did it first. Lol.

Wasn’t it Trump’s campaign promise?

Jones is hardly “horrific”. GMAFB.

We get it. You like MAGA.

MAGA isn’t perfect. But it’s not insane.

Maga is completely batshit crazy fascism. Hard pass. Going with the Lead Foot, No Filter guy over the Nazi every time.

How is maga fascist?

I don't really know. I just keep saying it because it sounds cool.

He'll be gone by Wednesday, watch.

Good Job, Dems. You couldn't not crap your pants if you tried.

Firing federal employees
