WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Mike Johnson sidestepped a question on Sunday on whether he accepted that Donald Trump lost to Democratic President Joe Biden in the 2020 election, giving a response similar to that from the former president's running mate in the vice-presidential debate.
Trump, who lost to Biden in 2020 and falsely claimed the elections were unfair, is once again the Republican Party's presidential candidate and faces Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris in the Nov. 5 elections. Polls show a tight race.
