This sparked intense liberal rage but was hilarious!
The White House took a playful jab at illegal immigration with a Valentine’s Day post that got attention from across the political spectrum. On February 14, the official social media account of the White House shared a tongue-in-cheek message that read, “Roses are red, violets are blue, come here illegally and we’ll deport you.” The image accompanying the post had a festive pink background, red hearts, and images of President Donald Trump and former Border Control czar Tom Homan.
The responses to the post were mixed, with some applauding the lighthearted tone and others criticizing it. Supporters of President Trump, particularly those concerned with the growing issue of illegal immigration, found humor and satisfaction in the straightforward message. One user, @GayRepublicSwag, responded with enthusiasm, calling it their “favorite Presidency of my life,” while another, @TiffMoodNukes, expressed their love for the message.
On the other hand, critics of the administration felt the post reflected a lack of seriousness. Some took to X (formerly Twitter) to voice their displeasure, with one user, @DjOmegaMVP, calling the message “a joke” and “embarrassing,” while another, @shermfm, questioned the professionalism of the administration, remarking on the continued influence of Trump’s approach.
Despite the backlash, the White House’s post seemed to resonate with a growing number of Americans who support a firm stance on immigration. Polls, such as the NPR/Ipsos survey, show increasing approval for stricter immigration policies, including the expansion of the U.S.-Mexico border wall and stronger enforcement to remove illegal immigrants. For many Republicans, the president’s no-nonsense approach to securing the border and deporting illegal immigrants is a cornerstone of his leadership, and messages like this only reinforce their commitment to these policies.
