Virginia<\/a> Democratic attorney general candidate Jay Jones appeared to come out swinging during a spirited debate at the University of Richmond on Thursday \u2014 but moreso against the president of the United States than his own Republican opponent, incumbent Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares.<\/p>\n

A tally by Fox News Digital counted 37 references to “Donald Trump<\/a>” or “Trump” as well as a dozen mentions of “the president” by Jones \u2014 who has seen his campaign embroiled in dueling scandals between texts envisioning the murder of a former top Republican and the adjudication of his 116-mile-per-hour reckless driving arrest in New Kent, Virginia.<\/p>\n

When Miyares accused Jones of being a politician more than a prosecutor, the Democrat replied that the Republican says “a lot about prosecuting cases<\/a>, but he can\u2019t seem to prosecute a case against Donald Trump to save his life.”<\/p>\n

Miyares did reference a singular 2025 case against the Trump Department of Veterans Affairs over education benefits, which Jones later acknowledged.<\/p>\n

But Jones continued to slam Trump for “illegally firing<\/a>” federal workers through DOGE efforts, and claimed 350,000 Virginians will lose healthcare because of the president.<\/p>\n

“As attorney general, I can’t wait to see Donald Trump in court. I will never flinch or back down from him,” Jones pledged.<\/p>\n

“I relish that fight because this is about us here in Virginia. It’s not about some guy in Washington who’s telling us what to do.”<\/p>\n

After several Trump name-drops, Miyares appeared to borrow a line from another Republican president \u2014 Ronald Reagan<\/a> \u2014 to verbally shake his head at the Democrat\u2019s persistent references.<\/p>\n

“There he goes again,” Miyares said. “Fifteen times he said the name of the president. Not one time did he say the name of a victim \u2014 that tells me he\u2019s a politician, not a prosecutor.”<\/p>\n

Reagan famously defused a tense 1980 debate with then-President Jimmy Carter by remarking, “there you go again,” after the Georgia Democrat mischaracterized his record on support for Medicare.<\/p>\n

Later in the debate, Jones again invoked Trump, criticizing Miyares for being too cozy with the White House<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“[While] they hang out at MAGA rallies together<\/a>, I will see Donald Trump in court to hold him accountable for Virginia,” he said.<\/p>\n

Jones also pointed to Trump\u2019s words of endorsement of Miyares, in which he reportedly said the Republican will never “let us down.”<\/p>\n

Jones said that should be translated to show that Miyares purportedly works for the administration more than Virginia.<\/p>\n

“We have a chance to chart a very different future. Donald Trump doesn’t run this Commonwealth. Jason Miyares<\/a> seems to think that that’s who his boss is. He’d rather be Donald Trump’s pro bono attorney than do his job,” Jones claimed.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment.<\/p>\n

On “The Ingraham Angle” on Thursday, former Trump adviser Jason Miller called Jones a “special kind of sick.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
