You all know Donald Trump’s lawyer Ty Cobb, the guy with the mustache who looks like a cross between Wilford Brimley and a barkeep from the Old West. You also know him as the guy who was famously overheard discussing the Trump-Russia scandal in a restaurant, by a New York Times reporter who was dining at a nearby table. Now Ty Cobb has been overheard yet again, this time in an airport.

There’s a Twitter user named @trumpanhator who just happened to be sitting near Ty Cobb in an airport yesterday, and he posted a photo to prove it. Here’s how he described what he witnessed: “Guess who I saw today? Leaving DC via Reagan Nat. Airport. He pulled out two phones and proceeded to loudly talk about how they all needed to be on the same page, Jay and he and Rudy. He didn’t even try to talk quietly.”

He added “One phone seemed to be for talking to his family, he talked about his departure and landing times. The other phone he was clearly talking to someone other than Jay Sekulow or Rudy Giuliani because he said Jay and Rudy and I need to have the same talking points.” Strangely, even after a child laughed at Ty Cobb, prompting Cobb to look up and realize people were staring at him, he then went right back to loudly discussing the Trump-Russia case on his phone.

Even though Ty Cobb appears to have no understanding of the fact that the people around him can hear him when he speaks, he still appears to be Donald Trump’s least incompetent attorney. Trump’s other Russia lawyer Jay Sekulow did such an exasperatingly poor job of representing Trump on cable news, host Chris Wallace resorted to simply saying “Oh boy this is weird.” Trump’s personal attorney Michael Cohen is facing criminal charges for illegally paying off a porn star.
