""That is not the principles of the Republican Party," Johnson said. "We stand for the founding principles of America - want me to articulate them for you right now? Individual freedom, limited government, the rule of law, peace through strength, fiscal responsibility, free markets, human dignity - the things that lead to human flourishing.""
""We have stood against that, we have fought against the Nazis," Johnson said, adding, "We defended that evil ideology. We roundly condemn it, and anybody in any party who espouses it, we're opposing that.""

A leaked group chat among young Republican leaders included antisemitic expressions, including "I love Hitler," and discussions of violence toward political opponents. Observers characterized the use of 'defended' as a revealing slip. Some political figures attempted to excuse the chat as youthful behavior despite members being in their mid‑20s to mid‑30s.
