Trump Cabinet member becomes 'instant meme' after Fox News appearance: 'Raptured?'

Secretary of Energy Chris Wright apparently didn't realize he was on camera Friday during a live broadcast with Fox News.

The Trump administration official was caught with his eyes closed, leaning back in the sun and soaking up some rays when Fox News anchors cut to him on camera. One of the anchors appeared to giggle at the unusual situation. The live feed ended abruptly when Wright didn't respond to his name.

The moment led to some hysterical responses online.

"What the hell was Chris Wright doing here?" Journalist Aaron Rupar wrote on X.

"Instant meme," David Clinch, founder at Media Growth Partners, wrote on X.

"The Trump administration really is embracing solar huh," reporter Alexander C. Kaufman wrote on X.

"Energy secretary who is going to be ok," Liz Charboneau, research director at House Majority PAC, wrote on X.

"Does he think he’s being raptured?" Social media consultant Peter Wade wrote on X.

"Friday afternoon mood," Bloomberg reporter Joshua Wingrove wrote on X.

"Just a girlie trying to cure his seasonal depression," Kendall Witmer, Democratic National Convention rapid response press assistant, wrote on X.
