Paul Gosar (R-AZ) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) last week.
Jean-Pierre declined to go into specifics when she was asked whether President Joe Biden considered Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) a part of what Democrats consider to be a group threatening democracy.

“When you go back to the speech, his speech last Thursday, people have talked about if it was divisive, it wasn’t divisive,” she said Wednesday. “The way that we saw this speech is that he was talking to the majority of the country who agree that we have to protect our democracy, who agree that we have to protect our freedoms.”
Jean-Pierre repeated that MAGA Republicans comprise “a minority, a small group” who have “extreme” perspectives and who threaten the “core value” of “who we are as a country.”
“He also asked for people to come together,” she said. “It didn’t matter if you were a Republican, or independent, or Democrat, he asked for folks to come together and stand against what we were seeing: these attacks. And you don’t have to look further than Jan. 6 of 2021 to see what the attack was.”
