Abigail Spanberger's Coward Act: Won't Ditch Violent Jay Jones

Abigail Spanberger is drowning in her own fear — and voters are noticing. The Virginia Democrat refuses to drop her support for Jay Jones, the same Jay Jones who fantasized about putting “two bullets” in a Republican’s head. When asked about it during debates, Spanberger danced around the question like a career politician dodging the truth. Her excuse? She claims “voters should decide.” What a cop-out.
Critics from both sides are blasting her response. One commentator said bluntly, “This calls into question Spanberger’s leadership and principles.” Even MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough, hardly a conservative, called on Jones to step down. But Spanberger? She’s still standing by him like nothing happened.
It gets worse. Jones wasn’t just talking about shooting political opponents — he also hoped his rival’s children would die, calling their grief a “good thing” for his politics. That’s not passion. That’s deranged. And yet Spanberger refuses to condemn him outright.
Republicans are rightly roasting her for enabling this kind of violent rhetoric. Law enforcement groups have joined Trump allies in demanding Jones drop out of the race entirely. Still, Spanberger hides behind weak statements that say nothing and do even less.
Her silence isn’t strategy — it’s cowardice. In a time when America needs leaders who can stand up to hate and division, Spanberger has proven she’s either too gutless to lead or quietly fine with Jones’ sick fantasies.
Far From Woke Verdict: Abigail, your silence is loud — and disgusting.
