House Speaker Mike Johnson has made headlines with his bold assertion that Vice President Kamala Harris is “at the center of the largest coverup in American political history.”
This statement comes amid a tumultuous political climate following President Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, a decision that has sparked intense scrutiny and speculation about the motivations behind it.
According to a tweet on his X (formerly Twitter) handle on Saturday, August 3, 2024, Johnson emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating, “You would have thought Biden was going to compete in the Olympics given the way Democrats talked about his fitness.”
This comment reflects a growing concern among Republicans regarding Biden’s health and the Democrats’ handling of the situation.
Johnson’s remarks echo a broader Republican narrative that has gained traction in recent weeks.
