The White House shared a controversial Valentine's Day meme honing in on President Donald Trump's policies concerning illegal immigration and deportations.
On Instagram, along with the simple message, "Happy Valentine's Day" (and a red heart emoji), the White House account posted a pink valentine's meme featuring the faces of Trump and the administration's border czar Tom Homan.
The meme, using the format of the ubiquitous "Roses are red, violets are blue" rhyme reads:
"ROSES ARE RED
VIOLETS ARE BLUE
COME HERE ILLEGALLY
AND WE'LL DEPORT YOU"
