https://www.rawstory.com/trump-2671873034/'Ego stroke': Internet blasts behavior at Trump's Cabinet meeting
On Wednesday, President Donald Trump held a cabinet meeting with media present. X users were quick to criticize and note some concerns about the publicity.
CNN White House reporter Alayna Treene noted, Every cabinet member has been given a Gulf of America MAGA-style hat, displayed in front of their seats, for this Cabinet meeting.
Real Clear Politics Philip Wegmann pointed out a concerning introduction Trump made, Trump introduces his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, during the Cabinet meeting as the most powerful woman in the world.
Meanwhile, journalist and author Sheron Boyle believes, #Trump cabinet meeting on news now just one big ego stroke for him. Nauseating to watch these brown noses."
Trump's cabinet meetings are straight out of North Korea. It's almost laughable how phony and cheesy they are, commentator Ed Krassenstein posted.
One reply to him from an X user noted, It's amazing how Trump manages to turn every cabinet meeting into a reality TV show.

And the terrorist Fox News correspondent posing as the Attorney General, Pam Bondi even had her own "LOOK AT ME!!!" moment, because she apparently is not on Fox News enough.
