PrintRepublicans go hogwild on the sombrero memes against their Democrat opponents
While Democrats talk murder against their opponents, Republicans are having the time of their lives ridiculing Democrats over the great government shutdown.
The fuse seems to have been lit at a press conference with Vice President J.D. Vance, who in response to leftist whining about his retweeting of a silly, stupid meme featuring Democrats wearing sombreros, in reference to their insistence that illegals be provided free health care, (which is grossly unpopular with the public), solemnly promised Democrats that the memes would stop if they got to work on ending the government shutdown.

It was too tall an order.
That's sent some of the most creative GOP meme minds into ridicule mode, going to town with the memes that drive Democrats bonkers. Democrats can't stand ridicule.
Get a load:
The sombrero memes will continue until morale improves.

A reminder that the same people who claim the sombrero memes are racist, also called Charlie Kirk a white supremacist, a nazi, and a racist.

Maybe @X should create a sombrero button—either in place of the like button or otherwise—until the shutdown is over pic.twitter.com/2Dd1uqgWpv

Mexicans, by the way, often enjoy this kind of humor, too, so any claim by Democrats that the memes are racist is kind of ridiculous, too.
Best yet… pic.twitter.com/Hrhr0MsZJh

And Vance promises more:
Glad to be back on TikTok thanks to President Trump! Follow along over on TikTok for more updates from the White House, and maybe even some sombrero memes pic.twitter.com/ltHvzkNbls

All they have to do is end health care for illegal aliens.
Enjoy!
