Senate Republican Whip John Thune (R-SD) cautioned former President Donald Trump to remain focused on “the issues” in the 2024 election cycle, specifically regarding Vice President Kamala Harris.

Senate Republicans pleaded with former President Donald Trump to focus on policy Wednesday after he accused Vice President Kamala Harris of “turning black” to benefit herself politically. Speaking to black journalists in Chicago, Trump was asked about recent comments by a number of congressional Republicans arguing she was a “DEI hire” because President Joe Biden promised to select a woman as his vice president.
