Virginia Congressman-elect John McGuire told Newsmax on Thursday that Tuesday’s resounding victory for President-elect Donald Trump and Republicans shows that “Americans are sick and tired of being last.”

“Three and a half years were the best advertisement to get Trump back in the White House,” McGuire said on “Wake Up America,” referring to the Biden-Harris administration. “You think about these foreign wars — that wasn’t happening under President Trump. You think about this fentanyl poisoning. It’s being made in China, coming across our southern border and killing the American people. Young people, the chances of them buying a house with interest rates up over 7%, inflation up to 10%. It’s almost impossible for you to live, work and raise your family in peace. So, I think Americans are sick of it.”

McGuire added: “[Trump] won because he cares about the average man, average woman. He cares about the American people. He has a huge heart for our country. He loves our country. He loves the American people. He took a bullet for us and he got back up and said, ‘Fight, fight, fight’ and he got right back to work. He didn’t make excuses. He didn’t play a victim. He has dedicated his life to the American people. He is America first. I’ve been with him since he came down the escalator. During one of my races in the Virginia General Assembly, a Republican told me I better not put a Trump flag on my pickup truck, or I would lose. So I put two Trump flags on my pickup truck; I had the second biggest win in Virginia.”
