House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Monday told voters in Pennsylvania that the "little secret" former President Trump mentioned at his Madison Square Garden rally is a get-out-the-vote strategy, not something "diabolical."Â
Democrats have been in panic since Trump teased Sunday that his "little secret" with Johnson would help Republicans keep the House of Representatives come Election Day. A New York Times article suggested that in the worst case scenario, Democrats feared Johnson would work with Trump to steal the election and stop the certification of results on Jan. 6. 2025, should Vice President Harris win.
"It's nothing scandalous, but we're having a ball with this. The media, their heads are exploding. 'What is the secret?'" Johnson said Monday at an event for GOP congressional candidate Ryan Mackenzie, according to The Hill.Â
"It's a thing we have about - it's a get-out-the-vote. It's one of our tactics on get-out-the-vote," Johnson said in response to a voter's question about Trump's comment.

"But they are convinced," the speaker added, jokingly rubbing his hands together like he had an evil plan.Â
On Sunday, Trump said his "little secret" with Johnson would help Republicans win congressional elections, but he otherwise kept tight-lipped about it.Â
