Vernon Jones ‘Looking Closely’ at Run for Georgia Governor

Kyle Morris 22 Mar 2021

Former Georgia state Rep. Vernon Jones said Monday that he is “looking closely” at a run for governor of the Peach State.

“I’m looking closely at Georgia’s race for Governor,” Jones wrote in a tweet. “If it weren’t for Brian Kemp, Donald Trump would still be President of these United States. We need courageous conservatives leading our state, not those afraid to stand up to the Radical Left.”

What are his real conservative bona fides?

He's a former Rodent.  Check.

He's black.  Check.

Oh, wait.   What makes him the most conservative person eligible for the job of governoring the state of Georgia?   

Where's he stand on Planned Parenthood's open program of eugenics against blacks, and where are his public comments regarding same?

Where's he stand on school choice?  Remember choice?   How parents have the choice to murder babies but no choice on what state indoctrination center their kid is forced to attend?

Where's he stand on keeping boys out of girls' sports and girls' sport scholarships?

Where's he stand on cutting state services to the bone and cutting state taxes, too?

He's a former Rodent.  It's nice that he's turned against his owners and all, but why should he be trusted as a conservative white knight?  (term chosen to really tick off the weak and childish.)

The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.

He will not make it.  Doug Collins could run.  Kelly  could run.  One of them would best him.  There is talk Hershel Walker might run..

Trump has encouraged Hershel Walker to run for Governor of Georgia.
