He also said it affected his chances in school, work, and life in general. Guy shared this to help break the stereotype that all undocumented people are criminals or gang members. He said most are normal people, like your neighbors, according to The Daily Beast report.

Guy also joked about where to find him, saying, “Here is my house,” and posted a photo of Men’s Wearhouse, a popular suit store, as per reports.
This weird feud started because Guy has mocked JD Vance’s fashion many times in the past, like bad ties and badly fitting suits. Even though JD Vance used to say only violent criminals should be deported, his tweet shows he might be okay with targeting critics too, as per The Daily Beast report.
