US Community Outrage Over White House Valentine's Day Deportation Post
The White House's Valentine's Day post promoting deportation has sparked outrage among US citizens and immigrants alike, with many calling it classless and hateful.
As you likely know, President Donald Trump's plan for mass deportations is already underway, making once-safe spaces like schools and churches a stepping ground for ICE agents.
Now, as both immigrant communities and full-fledged US citizens live in fear of arrests, the Trump administration apparently thought it'd be cute to celebrate uprooting people's lives with a rhyme.
Yes, the official White House Instagram account shared a Valentine's Day post featuring the heads of Trump and his border czar, Tom Homan, along with the words: "Roses Are Red Violets Are Blue Come Here Illegally And We'll Deport You."
As you can imagine, people were shocked when scrolling led them to stumble upon the post.
"Is this an actual white house official account?" people couldn't help but double check.
"I had to refresh twice to make sure this was real," another said.
The post was called "disgusting, classless, and unprofessional."
Someone said, "Never thought I'd see the day the Whitehouse would became a shitposting meme account but here we are."
Making puns out of deporting families quickly earned Trump's team a label of "the most childish administration that has ever existed."
Especially considering the meaning behind today's holiday. "This is disgusting," a person said. "You just couldn't resist a moment to spread hate on a day when ppl are celebrating love."
In conclusion, here's how many commenters feel about the state of the US and our political sphere: "We are a fucking joke!"
That's all! What do you think about the post? Let us know in the comments.
