‘Guardians of pedophiles’: Americans are ripping Republicans apart over a ‘we’re built different’ picture

When it comes to making offensive remarks about someone, for Republicans and Trump allies, the sky is the limit, and they are proving that once again.

A recently shared post by the official X page of The White House of the United States has got everyone worked up. It features a collage, where the upper half of the image is dedicated to United States President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance, who are seen wearing crowns. The bottom half, on the other hand, features House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer wearing sombrero hats, a highly insulting meme that Trump helped popularise and has largely been used by Republicans henceforth to poke fun at the Democrat leaders. The caption for the said picture read:

“We’re built different. Have a good night, everyone.”

Firstly, I think it is shocking and revolting for the White House to engage in a meme battle with the Democrats when they are the only ones fighting. I mean, get a job, I guess? Mike Johnson said that the Republicans are all working during the shutdown. Is this how they are spending their time? Secondly, I think it is extremely ironic that they released a picture of Trump and Vance wearing crowns just a day after the ‘No Kings’ protests, which reportedly saw millions (Ouch! If I was Donald Trump I would hide) of people take to the streets across the United States to protest Trump and his administration, which has come to closely resemble a monarchy. 

The social media post from the White House did not go unnoticed by Americans. Many people flooded the comments section with their thoughts, the majority of which focused on how ridiculous it all was. One user posted a picture of President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Speaker Mike Johnson, FBI Director Kash Patel, and US Attorney General Pam Bondi. The post was titled “Guardians of Pedophiles,” and it paid tribute to the people who tried to protect those whose names were in Jeffrey Epstein’s notorious files. Several others shared similar opinions while noting that the country and its current leadership have become a joke in the eyes of the people.
