Donald Trump returned to Capitol Hill on Thursday for the primary time since his supporters stormed Congress on Jan. 6, 2021.

Who mentioned what
“Republican members of Wisconsin’s congressional delegation supplied various accounts of the remark’s context,” saying he was speaking about crime or voter fraud, “and one claimed it wasn’t uttered in any respect,” the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel mentioned.
Trump additionally reportedly made odd feedback about Taylor Swift, Nancy Pelosi and “good man” Hannibal Lecter, the fictional cannibal. One Republican attendee mentioned to NOTUS that Trump’s “rambling” efficiency was “like speaking to your drunk uncle on the household reunion.”
