Takes credit for Glenn Youngkin's Virginia win, thanks "MAGA voters"

Following Republican Glenn Youngkin's victory in the Virginia gubernatorial race, Trump immediately released a statement taking credit for the win. "I would like to thank my BASE for coming out in force and voting for Glenn Youngkin," he said. "Without you, he would not have been close to winning." Trump claimed Youngkin won because he embraced the MAGA movement, despite Youngkin's campaign strategy of keeping Trump at arm's length.
