The White House has responded after pop superstar Ariana Grande challenged supporters of President Donald Trump, demanding to know if the promises of his presidency have materialised in their daily lives.
The singer shared, and later deleted, a post from activist Matt Bernstein on her Instagram story that posed a series of pointed questions to those who voted for Trump.
The message questioned whether the political and social landscape of the last four years had yielded tangible benefits for them.
“I want to check in with Trump voters. I have one very genuine question: It’s been 250 days, now that immigrants have been violently torn from their families and communities have been destroyed, now that trans people have been blamed for virtually everything and live in fear, now that free speech is on the brink of collapse for us all — has your life gotten better?,” the post reads.
“Has your groceries gotten cheaper? Has your health insurance premium gone down? Has your work/life balance improved? Can you take a vacation yet? Are you happier? Has the widespread suffering of others paid off for you in the way he promised it would, or are you still waiting?”
The White House spokesperson Kush Desai issued a statement that directly addressed the singer, wryly referencing the title of her hit song, ‘Save Your Tears’.
“Save your tears, Ariana,” TMZ quoted statement.
“Because President Trump’s actions ended Joe Biden’s inflation crisis and are bringing in trillions in new investments.
“He even signed an executive order just like magic that paved the way for the FTC to crack down on Ticketmaster for ripping off Ariana Grande’s concert-going fans. Get well soon, Ariana.”
