Description
Former President Donald Trump vented about his legal troubles to House Republicans in a closed-door meeting on Capitol Hill today, the first time Trump has returned to the Capitol campus since leaving office after the January 6, 2021 riot. Trump aired his grievances regarding his legal and electoral challenges, attacked his critics in the room, and only briefly addressed policy matters like abortion and taxes, according to multiple GOP lawmakers who were in attendance. He also met with Senate Republicans, including Sen. Mitch McConnell, who had an icy relationship with the former President and hadn’t spoken directly with him since December 2020. Trump praised McConnell today and shook his hand. New York Democratic congressman Daniel Goldman speaks to Anderson about Trump’s day in Washington. Also tonight, a top Senate Democrat revealed Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas took more undisclosed trips on a private plane of GOP megadonor Harlan Crow. CNN justice correspondent Jessica Schneider, former federal judge John E. Jones III and former federal prosecutor Elie Honig give their thoughts on the new development. Plus, a special goodbye and good luck to our longtime executive producer Charlie Moore, who’s taking on a new role at CNN.
