GOP Leaders Struggle with 2020 Election Questions Amidst Trump's Continued Claims

Republicans face challenges in addressing questions about the 2020 election as Trump maintains his narrative of a rigged result.

Prominent Republicans, including Mike Johnson and JD Vance, have been criticized for their evasive responses to questions about the 2020 election outcome.
Donald Trump continues to assert that he won the 2020 election, influencing GOP leaders to avoid directly acknowledging Joe Biden's victory.
Polling indicates that a majority of Americans believe Biden won legitimately, while only 30% of Republicans agree, complicating the party's messaging.
The reluctance to confront Trump's claims is seen as a potential liability for Republicans in the upcoming 2024 election.
Critics argue that the GOP's inability to address the 2020 election truthfully reflects broader issues of conspiracy and denial within the party.
