TAPPER: "But one thing that seemed to symbolize kind of the weird place that Democrats are in is this photograph of Governor Gretchen Whitmer standing in the White House. Can we bring that pickup? It's a picture of Gretchen Whitmer hiding her face while standing in the newly goldified Oval Office. She's there to make deals for Michigan and talk about tariffs that she supports in a targeted way, et cetera, et cetera. But a photographer comes in, all of a sudden, she's, like, trying to hide behind a notebook. I mean, you didn't do this, so you don't need to justify it, Congresswoman, but what's going on with your party? Like, what is that?"
