Vice President JD Vance Does a Fake-Out With Young Republicans and Jay Jones – Twitchy

As our own Sam J. pointed out Thursday morning, Virginia gubernatorial candidate Winsome Earle-Sears played the UNO reverse card on the Virginia Democratic Party, which demanded in a statement that she condemn the racist and antisemitic texts in a group chat by the Young Republicans and surfaced by POLITICO.

Sears condemned the texts. Easy. Now it’s Abigail Spanberger’s turn. “Easy, they absolutely must step down,” she posted, adding, “Now it’s your turn, Abigail,” referring to the violent text messages from Democrat candidate Jay Jones.

Vice President JD Vance jumped in with the assist:

A friend shared these truly disturbing messages from a Young Republican group chat. The group’s leader “genuinely” calls for murdering the children of his political opponents.

Oh wait, actually this is from Jay Jones, the Democrat running for Attorney General in Virginia. pic.twitter.com/gGcUmlPXXN

Vance doesn’t cower or beg for forgiveness. 

This is how it’s done.

That’s my future president.

Period. End of story.

If you’re a Republican pol unsure of how to react to something in the news, just follow JD Vance’s lead. You’ll come out ahead every time.

Jay Jones needs to drop out of the race for Attorney General.

If Democrats had any integrity left, they would be calling for it right now.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Talk of violence and harming children by anyone running for public office is extremely dangerous and reprehensible, regardless of their party affiliation. Someone like this should not hold office.

Can’t we condemn both?

We can, and Sears did. Vance is just playing by the Democrats’ rules.
