The White House social media department decided to celebrate Cinco De Mayo by carrying on one of Donald Trump’s most dubious traditions: A racist tweet.
But this one came with a twist of partisanship.
In 2016 and again in 2025, Trump “celebrated” the Mexican holiday by posting a photo of himself eating the taco salad at Trump Tower.
On Tuesday, the White House posted its own, slightly different Cinco De Mayo tribute: An AI-generated picture of New York Democrats Sen. Chuck Schumer and House Minority Speaker Hakeem Jeffries wearing sombreros and drinking margaritas near a U.S. border crossing.
Below them is a sign that reads, “I love illegal immigrants.”
