So, you guys might or might not have seen, but there was a surprise guest in the Ophel office on Wednesday.
It was Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, who you might know as a Democrat.
The appearance did not turn out so well for her.
It turned out she was standing there as Trump was not only talking about rigged elections,
but was also signing executive orders that were targeting his political opponents.
Guys, I wondered, have you seen the photo of Whitmer standing in the Ophel office looking,
I think it's fair to say, not terribly comfortable?
I can.
It looks like she's regretting some life choices.
That's exactly the way I thought about it.
It kind of reminds me of that meme of Homer Simpson shrinking into the shrubs.
Shrinking into the hedge, yeah.
That is the real life version of that.
I should emphasize that a spokesperson for Whitmer said that she was, quote,
surprised that she was brought into the Ophel office during the press conference,
and that, quote, her presence is not an endorsement of the actions or statements made at the event.
