MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA: Minnesota Governor and former vice presidential candidate Tim Walz’s daughter Hope recently came under fire from a section of conservative social media users after she compared Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s deportation to Jesus Christ ahead of Easter Sunday.

The 24-year-old daughter of Walz recently took to her social media to rant against Abrego Garcia’s deportation, which the Trump administration previously admitted to be an “administrative error,” and said that if Jesus “were alive today” and living in contemporary US, the government probably would have deported Him as well.

Speaking in her video, Hope Walz blasted the Donald Trump government for deporting the Maryland man to El Salvador’s mega-prison CECOT last month. 

Opposing the deportation, Hope said, "If Jesus were alive today and in the United States, this administration would have already taken him and removed him from this country without due process," as reported by Where Is The Buzz.

Though the Supreme Court has directed the administration to facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia from El Salvador, the government has flatly refused to do so after accusing the man of being a member of the violent street gang MS-13, while terming him an abuser of his wife. 



 

In her rant, Hope, however, strongly opposed the government’s stance and said that had Jesus been alive today, they would probably have linked him to the MS-13 gang as well. 

"Some people don't want to talk about that. It truly is baffling how clear and laid out everything is and there is still people standing by it. I believe in the good of people and like humanity, humans, you know...deep down at our core, like we care about each other... but that's really being tested,” said Walz’s daughter, whom the Democrat shares with his wife Gwen.

“Because how anyone is okay with this is terrifying to me," Hope concluded her speech.

As the video went viral on the internet, several users started calling out the youngster for her “stupidity” while also roasting Kamala Harris’ former running mate and his wife for their “dumb” DNA. 

Hope’s outburst took place on the heels of Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen’s visit to El Salvador to meet with the deported man, while Trump’s subsequent post was about Abrego Garcia’s alleged MS-13 link. 



 

On Friday, April 18, the president took to his social media to post a seemingly altered image of Abrego Garcia’s hand where his knuckles are tattooed with marijuana, a smiley face, an inverted cross, and a skull with three dots. 

In an attempt to indicate what the symbols meant, Trump shared the photo with “MS13” written over each of the symbols, respectively. 

He further penned in the post, “This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States, because he is such “a fine and innocent person.” They said he is not a member of MS-13, even though he’s got MS-13 tattooed onto his knuckles, and two Highly Respected Courts found that he was a member of MS-13, beat up his wife, etc.”



 

He concluded his post, writing, “I was elected to take bad people out of the United States, among other things. I must be allowed to do my job. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Tim Walz's daughter Hope roasted over her 'Jesus' comparison

The internet slammed Tim Walz's daughter Hope after her outrageous claims of comparing Kilmar Abrego Garcia with Jesus.

One of the social media users said, "As in Jesus the line cook at the Olive Garden? Yeah I can see it..."



 

Someone else noted, "The apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree 😏."



 

"You don't reason with her. Society collapses in response, and gets conquered by people who won't even allow her to show her face in public," hypothesized someone else. 



 

Another user noted, "If Jesus were in the US today?" before declaring, "The apple certainly doesn't fall very far from the tree!"



 

"I love when a girl, who hasn't shadowed a church door more than handful of times in her life and hasn’t opened the Bible, tells me “who’s really like Jesus,"" penned another disgruntled user. 



 

Another questioned, "Consider her upbringing and family, are you surprised?"



 

"She’s just videoing anything for clicks. What a loser," voiced another angry user. 



 

A social media user added, "It could be argued that because she has both of her parents DNA that would make her crazier somehow than they are."



 

"It's crazy how out of touch people who grew up rich really are. I feel bad for her, though. With a father like hers she was really fighting against all odds to not be retarded and she seems to have lost that fight," noted someone else. 



 

"That stupid apple didn't fall far from the tree, did it?" wondered a disgruntled fan.
