It's an ironic picture at the very least, but how do we know they actually support Trump and are not just wearing the shirt as a sort of "armor" in an ineffective attempt to not be targeted (like why some people who don't have significant thoughts about the police will put a "back the blue" bumper sticker on their car to try to avoid speeding tickets)?

My coworker did that to his Facebook profile. He's originally from Puerto Rico but he's still a bit worried so he put Trump stuff all over his profile. I tried to tell him that he's more than likely safe, but he rightfully doesn't trust that.

He knows they aren't going to check their Facebook page while detaining them right?

  • photo is from 2018 and can be found unedited on ghettyimages (link in snopes article)

  • police are HSI not ICE

  • Trump logo is photoshopped

  • while there was an increase in black and Latino Trump voters in 2024, this feels vaguely racist and y'all need to do your fucking homework 😑

No pity here, if they indeed have supported him.
