Secretary of State Marco Rubio addressed the viral meme of him sinking into an Oval Office couch during a meeting with President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The February 2025 photo shows Rubio appearing to sink into the furniture during the tense meeting, leading to at least one new meme every time a new role is proposed for him. Rubio told Fox News host Lara Trump that he initially disliked the image, noting that the lack of a pillow behind his back caused him to sink into the couch. He explained that while he initially viewed the photo as terrible, it eventually became a humorous meme. Rubio noted that he does not follow the memes closely, but has been shown many of them, including a board created by White House deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino.
