NEW: Yesli Vega (VA-07) Deletes Trump Support from Twitter Bio
After proudly touting her Trump affiliation in the primary, Yesli Vega is now attempting to walk it back

New reporting from the Washington Post revealed that Yesli Vega is now attempting to walk back her affiliations with Donald Trump – but no amount of Twitter scrubbing is going to make Virginians forget her extremism.

Yesli Vega used to proudly describe herself as a “Pres. Trump Appointee & Candidate for Congress” in her Twitter bio – but within the last few weeks, any mention of Donald Trump has mysteriously disappeared:

The conspicuous scrubbing of Trump from Vega’s Twitter bio also resurfaces questions about her supposed appointment to the “President’s Advisory Commission on Hispanic Prosperity” – and if Vega ever actually held that role.

“A few months ago Yesli Vega called herself the most conservative candidate in the race, and now she’s scrubbing Trump mentions from her social media,” said DCCC spokesperson Monica Robinson. “Life comes at you fast.”
