We should move on from Virginia A.G. nominee Jay Jones' fantasies about the murder of his political opponent & death of his children, say Democrats. We shouldn’t. The lack of a single, high-profile Democrat demanding Jones withdraw from the race is a terrifying new political low

I can find no high-profile Democrat who has called on Jay Jones to withdraw. Neither can any of the AI bots.

I hope to update this post with evidence of them doing so.

Appalling and disqualifying. You can’t be the state’s top law enforcement officer and fantasize openly about murdering your political opponent. Democrats must demand that their candidate for Virginia’s A.G. @jonesjay drop out immediately. His apology doesn’t fix his bad character

Jay Jones literally fantasized about killing a man and two children and Abigail Spanberger still doesn’t have the guts to tell him to drop out.
