Eric Swalwell LOSES IT Over Trump Cat Meme – Can’t Handle the Jokes!
It looks like Eric Swalwell has gone completely off the rails again, folks! During Tuesday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing, the California Democrat had an absolute meltdown—and what set him off? A harmless meme of Donald Trump holding a cat and a duck! Yes, you read that right.
The internet’s latest trend of AI-generated memes featuring Trump as a savior of animals has been spreading like wildfire, even catching the attention of big names like Elon Musk. But Swalwell, who’s been a vocal critic of Trump, couldn’t handle the fun. Instead of laughing it off like the rest of America, he went on a bizarre rant aimed at committee chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), accusing him of promoting “nonsense.”
Swalwell’s Over-the-Top Outburst
The specific meme that triggered Swalwell showed Trump holding a kitten and a duck, with the caption, “Protect our ducks and kittens in Ohio!” It was a lighthearted jab at the crazy rumors swirling around about migrants eating pets, which had made headlines in certain media circles.
But Swalwell didn’t see the humor. Instead, he erupted in disbelief during the hearing, shouting, “What in the hell is this? The chairman tweets, ‘Protect our ducks and kittens in Ohio’ because he goes down some crazy rabbit hole, completely debunked, that aliens are eating pets?”
Swalwell’s frustration only grew from there, as he mocked the idea of “aliens eating ducks” and accused Jordan of being insensitive. “I don’t know if the aliens who are eating your ducks are in the room with us right now, but Mr. Chairman, this is a serious issue,” Swalwell fumed.
The Meme That Broke Swalwell
The meme, posted by the House Judiciary GOP Twitter account, was clearly meant as satire—a humorous poke at some of the more outrageous news stories floating around. It came at a time when discussions about animal cruelty in Ohio were making headlines, including a strange case where a woman was arrested for allegedly killing and eating a cat.
But instead of keeping things in perspective, Swalwell used the meme as an excuse to go on a grandstanding tirade, proving once again that Democrats just can’t handle a joke—especially when it involves Trump.

Trump Supporters: Masters of Memes
For years, Trump supporters have used memes to poke fun at political opponents, and this latest trend of AI-generated images of Trump as a hero saving kittens and ducks is just another example of the internet at its best. These memes have been shared widely across platforms, spreading laughs and lightheartedness in a political climate that can often feel too serious.
And while conservatives are having fun, Swalwell’s outburst only shows that the left can’t take a joke—even when it’s clearly satire. Instead of focusing on real issues, he’s attacking a meme that has no bearing on the serious business of government.
A Long History of Meltdowns
This isn’t the first time Swalwell has had a public breakdown over something trivial. He’s infamous for going after Trump and his supporters at every opportunity, no matter how small. And this time, it’s over a meme that was clearly meant to get a few laughs.
But as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis pointed out, “It was a three-on-one debate.” DeSantis was referring to how Democrats constantly try to shift focus and avoid real issues. DeSantis told Fox News, “It was disappointing that she [Harris] didn’t have her feet held to the fire by the moderators. They went out of their way to try to do that to Donald Trump.”
The Left Can’t Take a Joke
While Swalwell was busy losing his cool, Trump supporters were sharing the meme far and wide, laughing at yet another example of Democrats’ inability to have a sense of humor. What’s next? Are they going to start fact-checking memes?
Trump himself has always been a fan of using memes to rally his base and get his message out in a fun, lighthearted way. And it works! The internet loves it, and Trump supporters are experts at using humor to expose the absurdity of the left.
The Bottom Line
Eric Swalwell’s ridiculous meltdown over a meme proves one thing: The left can dish it out but can’t take it. As conservatives, we know how to laugh, how to use humor to deal with the nonsense coming from Washington, and how to expose the hypocrisy of the left.
So while Swalwell rants, we’ll keep sharing the memes, keep laughing, and keep fighting for the truth.
