In a rare joint statement, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell have urged Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris to cease referring to GOP nominee former President Trump as a 'fascist.'
The Republican legislative leaders referenced previous statements made by President Biden and Vice President Harris regarding the need to prevent violence and maintain civility in the political sphere. They criticized Harris for what they deemed as inflammatory language that could incite further animosity and potential violence.
