Florida Governor Ron DeSantis criticized Democrats following Terry McAuliffe's loss to Glenn Youngkin in the Virginia gubernatorial election. On "Fox & Friends," Wednesday, DeSantis suggested that Americans are "rebelling" against the Democratic agenda after continued COVID-19 restrictions and issues with school boards, and he predicted the current red wave that was ridden in Virginia will pour over to the 2022 midterm elections.

VIRGINIA ELECTION TIMELINE: HOW EDUCATION BECAME CRUCIAL TO REPUBLICANS' VICTORY

GOV.

And that is good news for Republicans, and that is bad news for Joe Biden and his regime.
