Robert Mueller and Donald Trump Jr. Feet Away From Each Other in Airport

This morning at the Reagan National Airport in Arlington, Virginia, a not so common occurrence took place — Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Donald Trump Jr. were literally within feet of one another.

In a photograph that Politico published moments ago, taken at gate 35X within the airport, you can clearly see that Robert Mueller is sitting, patiently waiting for his flight, while Donald Trump Jr. is standing just several feet away waiting to board his flight.

No further details were made available, but this appears to simply be a coincidence.  It is unknown if they boarded the same flight.

There were people claiming that the man standing up in the back of this photo may not actually be Donald Trump Jr., but another tweet by Jake Sherman of Politico seems to confirm that it definitely is him.

For the clowns saying that it was not Donald Trump Jr., here he is on the flight from dca to hpn (westchester county) w secret service agent. pic.twitter.com/GGZciqrrTG
