Trump-Themed Restaurant Owner Faces Deportation
If you haven't heard, there is a Donald Trump-themed restaurant in Houston, Texas called "Trump Burger."
The popular Texas chain sells hamburgers with the letters "T-R-U-M-P" etched into the buns...
They have detailed artwork of Trump hanging on the walls...
Oh, AND their menu includes items like the "Melania Crispy Chicken" and the "Barron Crispy Grilled," as well as a promise to "Make Burgers Great Again."
Well, the "Trump Burger" has recently gone viral due to its owner being arrested by ICE for allegedly overstaying his visa.
Roland Mehrez Beainy, the 28-year-old Houston "Trump Burger" owner, was reportedly arrested by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement for allegedly failing to depart the US last year after arriving in 2019 on a non-immigrant visitor visa from Lebanon.
An ICE spokesperson said this in a statement about Beainy's arrest: "Despite false claims to the contrary, Roland Mehrez Beainy does not have any immigration benefits that prevented his arrest or removal from the United States. Beainy is a 28-year-old illegal alien from Lebanon who entered the United States in 2019 as a non-immigrant visitor, but he failed to depart by Feb. 12, 2024, as required under the terms of his admission."
"ICE officers arrested him on May 16, 2025, and he was placed into immigration proceedings. On June 13, an immigration judge granted his request for bond while he undergoes his proceedings."
"Under the current administration, ICE is committed to restore integrity to our nation's immigration system by holding all individuals accountable who illegally enter the country or overstay the terms of their admission. This is true regardless of what restaurant you own or political beliefs you might have."
While awaiting his immigration court hearing set for November, Beainy has denied the charges, telling Chron, a Houston news website: "Ninety percent of the shit they're saying is not true."
Obviously, the internet had some thoughts on this one, with multiple people comparing the news to a South Park episode...
"South Park Creators rn: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN.."
"They really thought it would affect everyone else but themselves," this person wrote.
And finally, this person pointed out that Trump doesn't seem to care about his own supporters...
