At a rally Thursday in Columbia, Missouri, President Donald Trump stated that the GOP was "the party of all Americans." Hoping to capitalize on the President's words, the Republican National Committee created a meme and posted it on Twitter.
Memes are not always kind to members of the Republican party. The Texas GOP stumbled in several attempts to promote GOP Senator Ted Cruz over Democratic challenger Beto O'Rourke. And Donald Trump Jr. fumbled several times while posting fake statistics and inaccurate information.
The RNC posted their meme with the caption:
"Vote Republican!"
Vote Republican! https://t.co/5evOjHbsag— GOP (@GOP) 1541119623.0
But rather than praise and agreement, the meme was mostly mocked online. People found it humorous.

Some people brought up a few issues with the GOP.
People found some GOP and White House policies less than inclusive of all Americans.
