Speaker Johnson says Democrats' 'rhetoric' has 'incited dangerous people to do dangerous things' 

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said Sunday “rhetoric” from Democrats has “incited dangerous people to do dangerous things.”

“For years now, the leading Democrats in this country, the … highest elected officials and the current nominee for president, have gone out and said that Donald Trump is a threat to democracy,” Johnson told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on “This Week.” “That, you know, the republic will end if he's reelected.”

“It's absolute nonsense,” the House Speaker added.
