Jones losing in Alabama was not a big surprise. He won such an unusual race in 2017, facing a scandal-plagued opponent in Moore. Jones voted for Trump’s impeachment and against the Supreme Court nominations of both Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett — moves that excited liberals but also probably didn’t help in a very pro-Trump state. It is assumed that Jones will be appointed to something in a Biden administration, if the former vice president wins the election.
