Dan Quayle Meets with Donald Trump at Trump Tower
Tourists, pedestrians and security gather in the lobby of Trump Tower in New York, Monday, Nov. 21, 2016. Welcome to Trump Tower. Upstairs, the President-elect is planning his administration. Downstairs it’s a full-on political carnival. Since Donald Trump’s stunning presidential victory, the celebrity businessman has largely been ensconced in his penthouse home at his 664-foot glass tower on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue. But as he works, the political circus that has accompanied his spectacular rise unfolds in the building’s marble-floored, gold-plated public lobby before crowds of journalists, supporters and wide-eyed gawkers.

Former Vice President Dan Quayle says he stopped by Trump Tower to offer President-elect Donald Trump best wishes.

Quayle told reporters Tuesday that he offered “personal congratulations” to Trump after speaking recently by phone. He said he “supported” Trump during the election.

Quayle entered the Manhattan high-rise that’s home to Trump accompanied by Kellyanne Conway, a top adviser to the incoming commander in chief.

Quayle was President George H. W. Bush’s vice president from 1989 to 1993.

Trump aides did not immediately respond to a request for more details on the reason for Quayle’s visit.

Meanwhile, Sen. Bob Corker says he thinks Trump has narrowed his choices for Secretary of State.
