A Texas burger chain, which shot to fame after naming itself after Donald Trump and offering a supersized helping of MAGA politics, has closed after ICE arrested its Lebanese owner.

Roland Beainy, of Trump Burger, which has outlets across the Lone Star State, was arrested by ICE earlier this year after reportedly overstaying his 2019 visa, which was set to expire in 2024.

His restaurants, which are entirely themed around the U.S. president and billed as “a patriotic haven for burger lovers,” now appear to have closed, including premises in Houston. On Friday, 10 October, The Independent found the Google profile for the Trump Burger at Chimney Rock Road in Houston is listed as “temporarily closed”.

The Houston Business Journal reportedly visited the location twice this week during peak business hours but found the restaurant's neon sign off, with a "closed" sign on its locked front doors, and the small parking lot deserted.

You have millions who have some kind of cognitive dissonance about what is going on and not thinking it won't "impact them". It's a literal "mass psychosis".
