UNDATED (KELO.com) -- South Dakota U.S. Senator John Thune welcomes a feathered visitor to his Washington office - the big turkey pardoned by President Trump at the White House.
In a "Happy Thanksgiving" video from the U.S. Senate GOP, Thune makes small talk with the turkey.
"So, any Thanksgiving plans. I know that's a touchy subject for birds.." and then Thune turns around to the stuffed pheasant in his office...
"How bout you.."
South Carolina Republican Senator Tim Scott is also in the video, talking to the lucky turkey on what looks to be a park bench.
