A 2008 article from the Savannah Morning News noted that Jones described himself as an independent thinker and a conservative Democrat who supports faith-based initiatives, tough immigration laws and fiscal responsibility.
He reportedly kept pictures of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee in his office, voted twice for former President George W. Bush and then enthusiastically embraced former President Obamas White House bid.
Jones's endorsement of Trump came the same day that Obama endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden.
Last month, a city councilwoman accused Jones of making transphobic comments against her during a discussion at the state Capitol. Stephe Koontz, Georgias only transgender elected official, alleged that Jones ranted about how LGBTQ rights are not civil rights.
You might be a man one day and a woman the next, I dont even know who you are, Koontz quoted Jones as saying.
You're telling me this guy backed Donald Trump? ---
