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.

The House speaker said on Sunday that he does not plan to call lawmakers back from recess to vote on emergency funding.

House Speaker Mike Johnson said Sunday that Republicans being asked who won the 2020 election is a “gotcha game.”
