I suppose Governor Scott (R-VT) is wheat:
“From what I’m seeing, I just think it’s unnecessary. It further divides and threatens people,” the governor said at a press conference in Waterbury. “We need stability right now in this country — we don’t need more unrest.”
As of that afternoon, Trump had called up 500 guard members from Illinois and Texas to the Chicago area, some of whom were seen at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility west of the city’s downtown. Trump also ordered 200 members of Oregon’s national guard to deploy into Portland, Oregon, but that plan was in a holding pattern following two rulings from federal judges. The status of the Chicago deployment was not entirely clear, either, with its own legal challenge pending in federal court.
“I don’t think our guard should be used against our own people. I don’t think the military should be used against our own people. In fact, it’s unconstitutional,” Scott said. “Unless, of course, there’s an insurrection, much like we saw Jan. 6 a few years ago,” he said, referring to the attack on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of Trump in 2021.

Governor Scott is an occasional target of President Trump’s vituperation, probably because the Governor behaves like a responsible adult, an attainment not on the President’s mantlepiece.
Or you can call the President Mr. Chaff. To be sure, chaff has its uses in American industry, but it’s not an important foodstuff, but more of something that must be stripped out of wheat.
An action strangely applicable to the President.
