Former President Donald Trump made his first visit to Capitol Hill since the January 6, 2021, attack. During his 'joyful' visit, he met behind closed doors with congressional Republicans, delivering what was described as a 'pep talk.' Trump emphasized 'great unity' among GOP leaders and discussed key legislative priorities, including abortion, energy production, taxes, and the economy. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and Trump made efforts to end their long-running feud, with McConnell shaking hands with Trump. The visit, which included cake, was met with mixed reactions, with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries criticizing Republicans for welcoming Trump back as a 'conquering hero.' The visit comes after Trump's criminal convictions, with some referring to him as a convicted felon.
