As the Gateway Pundit reported this week, Democrats are furious at Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer because she went to the White House and met with President Trump.
Now the story is about to get worse for the governor.
Whitmer was apparently so terrified of being seen at the Trump White House that she covered her face and hid behind folders to avoid being photographed while she was there.
The Hill reports:
New image shows Whitmer hiding face at surprise Trump photo-op
A new photo of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s (D-Mich.) surprise visit to the Oval Office emerged in a Saturday New York Times report showcasing the lawmaker covering her face while President Trump spoke to the press.
The Michigan Democrat said she was unexpectedly whisked into the room for the president’s order signing on Wednesday ahead of a scheduled closed door meeting. The two were set to discuss tariffs and opportunities to invest in Michigan’s defense assets, including the Selfridge Air National Guard Base.
“The governor was surprised that she was brought into the Oval Office during President Trump’s press conference without any notice of the subject matter,” Whitmer’s spokesperson told NewsNation, The Hill’s sister outlet, earlier this week.
“Her presence is not an endorsement of the actions taken or statements made at that event,” her office added.
Whitmer, in the Wednesday photo captured by Times photographer Eric Lee, can be seen standing under portraits of Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson in the Oval Office with two blue folders shielding her face.
This is so pathetic. Take a look below:
SEE IT! Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) seen shielding her face temporarily from the cameras… for some reason.
NYT: “Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan stood glumly in the Oval Office, hoping no one would take her picture.”

If Whitmer tries to run for president in 2028, this image will be everywhere. What a dumb mistake.
