Former President Donald Trump reportedly "rambled" like a "drunk uncle" while he was meeting with Republican lawmakers on Thursday.

Sources in the room for Trump's congressional meeting spoke to NOTUS after the event.

"Donald Trump came to the Capitol Hill Club Thursday morning supposedly to discuss his agenda for a second term with House Republicans," NOTUS reported. "Instead, Trump treated his meeting as an opportunity to deliver a behind-closed-doors, stream-of-consciousness rant where Trump tried to settle scores in the House GOP, trashed the city of Milwaukee, and took a shot at Nancy Pelosi's 'wacko' daughter."

"Like talking to your drunk uncle at the family reunion," one person in the room said.

During the meeting, Trump suggested that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) go easy on Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). Earlier this year, Greene filed a motion to oust Johnson.

In a video posted to X (formerly Twitter), Greene bragged about being called out by the former president.

"[Trump] was joking, and he said, are you being nice to him?" Greene told Fox News. "As long as my speaker supports the Republican agenda, I definitely will support him."

"And he also said, you know, she's loyal, she's wonderful, always shows up to support me," the lawmaker added. "And he told the entire conference that I'm capable."
