Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, a Democrat who drew criticism for meeting with President Donald Trump earlier this week, is being accused of hiding from cameras during the visit, after a photo showing her covering her face with folders in the Oval Office has garnered millions of views on social media.

Former Democratic Rep. Susan Wild called Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's decision to hide her face in the Oval Office "cringey" on Sunday during a CNN panel discussion.

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer accidentally generated a viral moment in her quest to avoid getting her photo taken during a trip to the White House. Speaking to Detroit business leaders on Monday, the Democratic governor addressed a New York Times photo of her covering her face with a folder as she stood on the sidelines of the Oval Office while President Donald Trump held a press conference.
