“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. Even Democrats are saying it is ‘RESIGNATION FROM CAMPAIGN’ TERRITORY.” – U.S. President Donald J. Trump

“The Attorney General is Virginia’s Chief Law Enforcement Officer. That authority must always be exercised with neutrality, integrity, and character because that’s the only way every Virginian can trust the system meant to protect them. With the recent revelations, it’s clear Jay Jones has shown he’s reckless, biased, and willing to trade away his integrity, disqualifying himself from ever serving as Attorney General.” – Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares 

“Jay Jones’ horrific comments are a symptom of the entire Democratic Party. Abigail Spanberger needs to call on him to drop out. Jay Jones can never be Attorney General of Virginia.” – Virginia Lt. Governor Winsome Earle-Sears

“At a time when words now incite violence, leaders must be the first to show restraint. Jay Jones crossed a line no public servant should ever approach. That’s not just vile and inexcusable — it’s disqualifying. He has no business seeking Virginia’s highest legal office.” – State Senator for Virginia’s 27th District Tara Durant

“This isn’t funny. It’s sick. If your idea of humor is fantasizing about shooting a fellow legislator, you don’t deserve the trust of Virginians. Jay Jones has shown us exactly why he has no business being anywhere near statewide office.” – Delegate for Virginia’s 52nd District Wendell Walker
