Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) is mocking former President Donald Trump for taking credit in Glenn Youngkin’s (R) victory in Virginia’s gubernatorial election.
In a tweet on Tuesday night, Kinzinger shared Trump’s statement and wrote, “Sounds like someone who is scared he’s been forgotten.”
In a statement about Virginia’s gubernatorial race, Trump said, “I would like to thank my BASE for coming out in force and voting for Glenn Youngkin. Without you, he would not have been close to winning.”
He added, “The MAGA movement is bigger and stronger than ever before. Glenn will be a great governor. Thank you to the people of the Commonwealth of Virginia and, most particularly, to our incredible MAGA voters!”
And in a statement on Wednesday, Trump shared a quote from radio host John Fredericks, “If there were no Trump in this election, there would be no Glenn Youngkin.”
On Tuesday, Youngkin defeated his Democratic opponent, Terry McAuliffe
