Videos and pictures have emerged over the last 24 hours showing President Donald Trump making a surprise trip to Washington DC.
President Trump was seen making the unannounced visit on Sunday evening.
He arrived at Dulles International Airport in Virginia, which is just a short drive from DC.
This is only the second time Trump has been seen in DC since after the 2020 election.
Oddly, it appeared that he was wearing his golf shoes while exiting the plane.
Speculation as to why he made the trip has taken over social media.

The Washington Examiner reports on President Trump’s unannounced visit:
Donald Trump was seen making an unannounced and unexpected visit to Washington, D.C., Sunday evening.
The former president was spotted getting off wearing his golf shoes, marking only the second time he has traveled to the nation’s capital since he left the White House.
Trump was seen arriving at Dulles International Airport in Virginia, which is located just 26 miles outside downtown the district, according to a video posted online by freelance reporter Andrew Leyden.

Thus far, nobody knows why President Trump made the trip.
Speculation is running rampant though.

Raw Story has more on that speculation:
Trump didn’t have any Sept. 11 remembrance ceremonies planned on Sunday, as other leaders were attending events. He did mark the occasion by posting two memes on his social media account. The only other activity was a series of news stories from last week to as far back as June 2022. He didn’t make any remarks about the trip to DC or what he’s doing in the city.
It left a void for others, to suggest what they thought Trump was doing. It’s possible Trump is continuing his fundraising with some large donors. He could be meeting with Republican leaders to convey talking points in person about his document scandal. If he were speaking to a group it would likely have been announced and promoted by the group.
Last week, former Attorney General Bill Barr made it clear that Trump was getting dangerously close to being indicted. It’s the kind of legal analysis that is leading many to speculate that the date with the court could be upon us.
I keep pretty close tabs on his schedule and events. I’m unaware on any in the DC area tomorrow for Trump. https://t.co/rILt7kUiW0

Enemies of President Trump are desperately hoping that he’s been indicted.
Seems like wishful thinking on their part though.
It would be pretty cool if trump is in DC to get arrested.

Something weird is going on. No one – and I mean no one – knows why Donald has arrived in DC tonight, looking disheveled in golf clothes. It could be something totally inconsequential, but something tells me it’s not.
