Former President Trump will not visit Capitol Hill Tuesday as previously planned to meet with congressional Republicans ahead of their House speaker vote, a source told Fox News Digital.
Former President Trump will not visit Capitol Hill Tuesday to meet with congressional Republicans as they consider a next speaker of the House, a source familiar with the 2024 GOP front-runner's plans told Fox News Digital. The former president told Fox News Digital last Thursday that he would visit Washington, D.C., and Capitol Hill to take part in a House Republican Conference as members considered who would become the next speaker of the House, following the ouster of Rep.
Jordan, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, is up against House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., for the role. Meanwhile, Trump, last week, said he would accept a short-term role as speaker of the House of Representatives to serve as a 'unifier' for the Republican Party until lawmakers reach a decision on who should take on the post. McCarthy was removed as speaker of the House last Tuesday after Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla.
