In a bizarre turn Thursday evening, President Donald Trump appeared to come out against beef, saying that Democrats want to kill cows.

It sent many to Twitter to mock the president for being anti-burger or anti-steak, but for many Trump supporters, the comment was lost on them and they began advocating the president’s new pro-cow policy.

One Trump supporter alluding to cow killing being a socialist-supported activity.

"They want to kill our cows."- #DerangedDonald

regarding the socialist democrats. LMAO

Some progressives noticed the hilarity as well:

MAGA chuds: “THEY WANT TO TAKE AWAY OUR BURGERS!”

Also MAGA chuds: “IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL TO KILL COWS!" https://t.co/a763bWlPkR

Trump's newest speechwriter appears to be one of the cows that does billboards for @ChickfilA https://t.co/Zep4916MWR

Don't kill our cows, liberals, we need them for burgers.

If they want to kill our cows then should we kill their donkeys?

AOC wants to kill our cows … wipe out ethanol.

The green new deal is insane and the President wants to save talking about it until 2 months before the election.

The President is hilarious tonight.
