President Donald Trump is calling for Democrat state attorney general candidate Jay Jones of Virginia to drop out of the race, after appalling text messages sent by Jones three years ago have been exposed.
In the text exchange, Jones was engaged in a discussion with a fellow Democrat in Virginia, and was raging against then-House Speaker Todd Gilbert and other Republicans. Jones suggested in his texts that Gilbert and others should receive “bullets to the head,” and said he would “piss on their graves.”
Jones also referred to Gilbert’s wife and children, saying they were “breeding little fascists,” and suggested they should all die as well.
Jones is running against current Republican Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares, in an effort to flip the seat.
President Trump blasted Jones over the horrific text messages, and said he should drop out of the race.
Trump also confirmed his full support for Miyares.
He wrote:
It has just come out that the Radical Left Lunatic, Jay Jones, who is running against Jason Miyares, the GREAT Attorney General in Virginia, made SICK and DEMENTED jokes, if they were jokes at all, which were not funny, and that he wrote down and sent around to people, concerning the murdering of a Republican Legislator, his wife, and their children.
Abigail Spanberger, who is running for Governor, is weak and ineffective, and refuses to acknowledge what this Lunatic has done. Even Democrats are saying it is “RESIGNATION FROM CAMPAIGN” TERRITORY.
Democrat Jay Jones should drop out of the Race, IMMEDIATELY, and the People of Virginia must continue to have a GREAT Attorney General in Jason Miyares who, by the way, has my Complete and Total Endorsement — JASON WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!
Several others have called for Jones to withdraw from the race as well, including Vice President JD Vance.
