President Donald Trump<\/a> praised Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears this week after Democratic challenger Abigail Spanberger mocked the Republican over her non-endorsement with a SpongeBob Squarepants reference.<\/p>\n

Trump was asked about Earle-Sears on Air Force One and praised her debate performance while appearing to criticize Spanberger\u2019s refusal to explicitly call for scandal-plagued attorney general candidate Jay Jones to drop out after his texts envisioning the murder of a former House Republican leader.<\/p>\n

“I think the Republican candidate<\/a> is very good and she should win because the Democrat candidate is a disaster,” he said.<\/p>\n

“I haven\u2019t been too much involved in Virginia — I love the state; I did very well in the state but I will tell you I think the republican candidate is excellent<\/a> and the Democrat candidate is a disaster,” he said.<\/p>\n

He warned that both Spanberger and Rep. Mikie Sherrill, D-N.J. \u2013 the Democratic nominee in the Garden State \u2013 will preeminently be bad for the current U.S. energy dominance agenda.<\/p>\n

“Both the Democrats are going to drive the energy prices through the roof<\/a>,” he said.<\/p>\n

Trump, however, again appeared to stop short of issuing an endorsement in the style he usually does \u2013 which includes effusive praise and “total endorsement” on Truth Social.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital also reached out to the White House for clarity on whether the AF1 comments constituted an endorsement.<\/p>\n

Former President Barack Obama<\/a> was clearer in his commendation of Spanberger, whom he formally endorsed last week.<\/p>\n

A Spanberger campaign spokesperson<\/a> also confirmed the two will rally in Virginia in the coming days. The site will reportedly be in Hampton Roads<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Obama released a video<\/a> calling Virginia\u2019s elections “some of the most important in the country this year.”<\/p>\n

“I am proud to endorse Abigail Spanberger for governor. Republican policies are raising costs on working families so billionaires can get massive tax cuts,” Obama said, echoing congressional Democrats.<\/p>\n

Asked about Trump and Obama, the Earle-Sears campaign said the video endorsement shows Spanberger is “scared \u2013 and it shows.”<\/p>\n

“After losing support across Virginia, she\u2019s leaning on liberal elites to try and save her collapsing campaign,” press secretary Peyton Vogel told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“This is a desperate play from a candidate who\u2019s run out of support, out of ideas, and out of time. Voters see through it, and that\u2019s why Winsome Earle-Sears is surging.”<\/p>\n

Spanberger got another boost Tuesday from PBS\u2019 “Bill Nye the Science Guy<\/a>,” who condemned Trump in a raucous speech over the weekend and will rally with the Virginia Democrat<\/a> in Charlottesville.<\/p>\n

When asked about Nye\u2019s resurgence on behalf of Democrats, a White House spokesperson quipped, “You mean, \u2018Bill Nye the Liberal Activist Guy\u2019?”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
