President Donald Trump on Sunday night posted a potential name change to a key federal agency ― seemingly for the sole purpose of trolling the media.
Just one day after surviving another assassination attempt, Trump shared a post from a supporter urging him to change the name of U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement to National Immigration & Customs Enforcement.
That would change the acronym from ICE to NICE, “so the media has to say NICE agents all day everyday,” the supporter wrote.
“GREAT IDEA!!!” Trump wrote. “DO IT.”
Versions of this proposal have been circulating as memes among Trump supporters for some time now, especially as the president faced criticism for the aggressive tactics used by ICE officers in immigration crackdowns. That’s led to protests against ICE and other federal agencies.
