Kevin McCarthy to call on Biden to apologize after 'semi-fascism' remark [View all]
Did Joe hit a nerve, Kevin? Sure sounds like it. The TRUTH hurts, does it not? Joe speaks of the members of YOUR House caucus. Deal!Source:CNN
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy will call on President Joe Biden to apologize for invoking fascism to describe the ideology of former President Donald Trump and his supporters, according to excerpts from a speech he will give later today.
McCarthy is set to take on Biden in a prebuttal speech ahead of the President's prime-time address later in the evening.
"President Biden has chosen to divide, demean, and disparage his fellow Americans -- simply because they disagree with his policies," McCarthy will say, according to the excerpts.
He will add, according to the excerpts: "When the President speaks tonight at Independence Hall, the first lines out of his mouth should be to apologize for slandering tens of millions of Americans as 'fascists.'"
