House Speaker Mike\u200d Johnson announced that while the details \u200bof the\u200c meeting are still \u2062being finalized,\u2063 there are &#8220;preliminary \u2063plans&#8221; for Trump \u200cto connect with the \u200dRepublicans,\u2063 likely \u2063in the morning prior to his meeting with Biden. This visit marks Trump&#8217;s first interaction with congressional Republicans \u2062since June. Johnson also \u2063mentioned that\u2064 Trump has many responsibilities ahead, including \u200bforming his Cabinet\u200c and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">appointing key staff<\/a>, as Republicans work\u2062 towards consolidating\u2063 control in\u2063 both chambers of Congress.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump has &lsquo;preliminary plans&rsquo; to visit Capitol Hill ahead of Biden meeting<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1879151\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President-elect Donald Trump is expected to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/presidential\/3042185\/five-takeaways-trump-dc-visit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">make a visit<\/a> with House Republican leadership on Capitol Hill before meeting with President Joe Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/presidential\/3224986\/trump-and-biden-will-meet-at-the-white-house-next-week\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">at the White House<\/a> on Wednesday morning, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) told reporters on Tuesday.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>Although the details have not been finalized, Johnson said they have &ldquo;preliminary plans&rdquo; to meet with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mike-kelly-same-people-criticizing-trump-peddled-russia-collusion-hoax\/\" title=\"Mike Kelly: Same People Criticizing Trump Peddled Russia Collusion Hoax\">president-elect<\/a> before he meets with Biden to discuss the transition.

Although the race for House control has not yet been called, Republicans look poised to maintain their slim majority, securing GOP control in both chambers of Congress as well as the White House.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;As you can imagine right now, he has a lot going on,&rdquo; Johnson said. &ldquo;He has to fill out a Cabinet, he has to appoint his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/walsh-the-cuomo-sexual-harassment-scandal-is-distracting-from-his-far-worse-scandal\/\" title=\"WALSH: The Cuomo Sexual Harassment Scandal Is Distracting From His Far Worse Scandal\">top staff<\/a>, and he&rsquo;s beginning to do that.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Trump&rsquo;s visit to Capitol Hill is the first time the president-elect will meet with congressional Republicans since June when he huddled with the GOP conference to discuss election strategy. That meeting occurred off the Capitol grounds at the Capitol Hill Club, where Republicans often meet to discuss political matters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, if Trump meets with Johnson on Wednesday, it will likely take place inside the Capitol building &mdash; marking the first time he has returned to the location since his presidency.<\/p>\n<p>His meeting comes as Democrats hold Trump responsible for the riot on Jan. 6, 2021, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who led Trump&rsquo;s second impeachment. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><strong><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Now, the fact of Jan. 6, that was an assault on our Congress, assault on the Capitol, this beacon of democracy to the world, an assault on the Constitution of the United States.
