Donald Trump appears to hate immigrants, which is rather ironic. After all, he married one, actually two immigrants – one was a Czech, and the other was our first lady, a Slovenian. Then, a Democratic lawmaker uncovered the Donald’s real secret in a Tweet for all to see.
U.S. Air Force Reserve Colonel and California Representative Ted Lieu had it after POTUS tweeted how the world was laughing at our immigration policy. He referred to this presidential tweet before lambasting 45 all the way back to his grandfather:
‘….Our Immigration policy, laughed at all over the world, is very unfair to all of those people who have gone through the system legally and are waiting on line (sic) for years! Immigration must be based on merit – we need people who will help to Make America Great Again!’
Representative Lieu hit the former leader of the free world with a shot right where it hurt the most:
‘Dear
@realDonaldTrump: I will support merit based immigration based on the same standards that allowed your grandfather, who started off poor & as a barber, to immigrate to America as an unaccompanied minor.’
Actually, Germany threw Trump’s grandfather out of the country for refusing to serve in the military. The apple apparently does not fall far from the coward tree.
What Lieu kindly does not mention was that Trump’s grandfather followed the Gold Rush miners. He ran a hotel of sorts, a brothel, that tended to all of the men’s physical needs.
Then, there was the president’s mother. Yes, he has one, although he never mentions her. She immigrated from Scotland.
Why would Trump cruelly jail babies and infants, ripping them from their mothers’ arms, people who were seeking asylum from certain death? Representative Lieu shone some light into this rather dark presidential history, one that the the man sitting in the Oval Office appears to want to make even darker.
After Lieu’s tweet, Twitter world lit up. Check out some more of our favorites below:
