Comedian George Lopez says President Trump has a hypocritical “anchor baby” problem on his hands despite none of his children being born of illegal immigrants. 

The Hollywood activist told 1.2 million Instagram followers over the weekend that Donald Jr., Ivanka, Eric, and Barron should be targeted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials.

“Uh, @icegov, ’if your [sic] listening’ you can find these immigrants at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave — Signed Enrique Enpanada the third,” Mr. Lopez wrote Saturday.



An image accompanying the post included four of Mr. Trump’s five children, along with first lady Melania Trump, wearing sombreros.

Mrs. Trump, along with the president’s ex-wife Ivana, were both legal immigrants.

The comedian’s barb appeared to confuse readers; many understood the political differentiation made between the children of legal and illegal immigrants.
