Another watershed moment in the greatest political comeback in American history

Today, fresh off his resounding victory last week, President Donald J. Trump made a "triumphant" return to the nation's capital — a harbinger of the sweeping change to come in a few short weeks.

Here's what you missed:

President Trump met with President Biden in the Oval Office

Four years after departing the White House — and almost eight years to the day after his first post-election White House meeting — President Trump was back in the Oval Office as the transfer of power kicks into high gear.

President Trump thanked the Biden administration for its commitment to ensuring "a transition that's so smooth, it'll be as smooth as it can get."

President Trump received a hero's welcome at the U.S. Capitol

President Trump was greeted with thunderous applause by House Republicans — who are fresh off preserving a majority that cements a Republican governing trifecta for at least the next two years.

Speaker Mike Johnson, who appropriately labeled President Trump the "comeback king," reiterated his commitment to begin enacting President Trump's Day One agenda as soon as the president-elect is inaugurated.

One thing was abundantly clear: change is in the air in Washington, D.C. — and it begins on January 20, 2025.
