Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, a potential 2028 Democratic presidential candidate, was ribbed online for seeming to hide her face during a meeting with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office.
Whitmer was seen temporarily shielding her face from cameras in the Oval Office by holding up a folder, according to a photo by the New York Times.
She later lowered the folder, as the president spoke to the press and encouraged Whitmer to comment as well. The Democratic governor, who clashed with Trump during his first term regarding her COVID-19 lockdown policies, met with the president to discuss recovery from an ice storm that impacted thousands of Michiganders, funding for the Selfridge Air National Guard base near Detroit, protections for the Great Lakes and the automobile industry.
Whitmer, joined by Michigan State House Speaker Matt Hall and several Cabinet secretaries, stood steps away from Trump while he signed executive orders Wednesday.
Yet, Gretchen Whitmer still showed up at the White House. Talk about petulant! :mental:
-
Uh oh! Did Whitmer violate the Democratic Party code by meeting with Trump and legitimizing him?
-
Whither and ny governor hochul should both be wearing paper bags over their heads :lmao:
-
Whitmer has reportedly been called a political "prop" by her side. Dems are so utterly predictable.
-
She should have used a bag and called herself the unknown governor.
