JD Vance Responds to Critic's Undocumented Status

Derek Guy, a popular fashion commentator known as 'Menswear Guy,' revealed on X that he has lived in the United States as an undocumented immigrant since childhood after his family fled Vietnam and entered from Canada. His intention was to challenge negative stereotypes and humanize undocumented immigrants. The post drew political attention when right-wing users tagged Vice President JD Vance, whom Guy has frequently criticized, urging Vance to deport him. Vance responded with a Jack Nicholson meme, widely interpreted as a veiled threat of deportation. This exchange has sparked debate about the vulnerability of undocumented immigrants and the use of immigration status in political discourse. Guy expressed hope that sharing his story would foster empathy for the undocumented community.
