Popsugar News Donald Trump Jr. Donald Trump Jr. and Robert Mueller at the Airport Together Robert Mueller and Trump Jr. Almost Had an Airport Run-In — and Now It's a Meme 27 July 2018 by Ryan Roschke Image Source: Getty / John Lamparski On July 27, Donald Trump Jr. caught a flight out of Washington DC's airport . . . and so did Robert Mueller. Big deal, right? Normally, I'd say no, but the two happened to be at the same gate — at the same time. Politico was quick to pick up on the moment; Trump Jr. stands on the right side of the photo, apparently talking to someone in what must be a very important phone conversation, while Mueller nonchalantly reads a newspaper mere yards in front of him. Soon after the picture made the rounds, ABC News correspondent Katherine Faulders confirmed via the special counsel's office that it is indeed Mueller in the photo, and that he was not aware of Trump Jr.'s presence. Even so, the internet was quick to rattle off more than a few hilarious jokes about the potentially super awkward situation. oh boy. robert mueller and donald trump jr. just got into the same bumper car at the country fair. awwkwaaaard.— bleaks (@bleakfacts) July 27, 2018 1 / 14 Trump Jr. when he saw Mueller... pic.twitter.com/afBoRPWxjZ— Elizabeth Byrd (@elizabeth_byrd) July 27, 2018 2 / 14 Oh good, I love a bottle episode! https://t.co/sklhcwINoU— Scott Bixby (@scottbix) July 27, 2018 3 / 14 The next time you feel uncomfortable running into your ex at a party, remember that Trump Jr. and Robert Mueller were waiting at the same gate for the same flight today. pic.twitter.com/7cz8hpx0ra— Brian Tyler Cohen (@briantylercohen) July 27, 2018 4 / 14 Mueller on the plane pic.twitter.com/AwgbHYZRJS— JA (@JohnantFatale) July 27, 2018 5 / 14 If I was Mueller, I’d follow him for funzies, just to add to Trump Jr.’s paranoia.
