At a reception in the White Housea short time ago, according to the pool report, President Trump spotted FBI Director Comey and called out to him. Comey came over to Trump to shake his hand and then gave Trump a hug before shaking the Vice President’s hand.

“He’s become more famous than me,” said Trump.

Late Update – 10:29 PM: The text above was based on the White House pool report. However, now having watched the video myself, ‘hug’ seems overstated. More like a pat on the shoulder from Trump and a word in the ear.
