Over the years, Cher has earned her reputation as a legitimate Twitter icon, frequently shading President Donald Trump by using the toilet emoji instead of his name. And her latest political clapback has everyone cheering once again in the wake of Trump’s order to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), a federal program created by Barack Obama in 2012 that protects undocumented immigrants who entered the United States illegally as children, also known as Dreamers, from deportation.
Cher went on a Tweetstorm about the decision, saying, “Those Who Can Must Take a DREAMER In2 Their Home & Protect Them‼️I’m Ready 2 Do This & ??Others in MY BUSINESS WILL DO THE SAME‼️SANCTUARY.” One Twitter user, @bwebb56, who has since made her account private, doubted that the singer would actually put her money where her mouth is, writing that she’d “believe it when she saw it.” And, well, we found out what happens when you question Cher. She called the naysayer out to her millions of followers in six simple words: “Then keep your eyes open bitch.”
Needless to say, people were shook, writing things such as, “RT if you’re okay with using tax dollars to mosaic the walls of Trump’s cell with Cher’s tweets,” and “gotta delete your whole account now.” Cher hasn’t been the only celebrity to speak out against Trump and his DACA policies. actors, singers, tech leaders, and and Barack Obama himself have all condemned the latest ruling.
