What is Jim Desmond So Scared Of?

Times of San Diego: “Jim, we’ve reached out to your campaign a couple of times now…”

Less than two months into his flailing congressional campaign in CA-48, Jim Desmond is taking heat for dodging the local press. 

Despite being anointed as the GOP candidate by Trump and D.C. party bosses, Desmond has repeatedly dodged invitations for a long-form, in-person interview with the Times of San Diego.

Now, Desmond is getting called out personally on air: 

“Jim, we’ve reached out to your campaign a couple of times now. We very much want to have you on the show… We are trying to give our audience a full sense of the race in the 48th, and we can’t do that without you. So we hope you will come on – and sooner rather than later.” – Times of San Diego, Matt Strabone

DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“Jim Desmond is running scared – and it’s easy to see why: He’s just another MAGA extremist who can’t defend his record of cheerleading Trump’s rising costs, cruel health care cuts, and reckless wars abroad.”
