Trump Admin Announces Free Sombrero Giveaway For First 10,000 Illegals To Self-Deport

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The White House launched an initiative on Friday guaranteeing a free sombrero to the first 10,000 illegal aliens who self-deport.

“They’re big hats,” President Donald Trump explained to reporters. “We call them sombreros, but did you know sombrero just means hat? It’s really something. I just learned this.”

According to sources, there were so many illegal aliens embedded in the country that ICE was overwhelmed. To assist, President Trump devised what he called a “tremendous” free sombrero giveaway to encourage undocumented immigrants to leave of their own accord. And the White House thinks they’ll go for it.

“I love the Mexicans,” said Trump. “That’s why we’re giving away the best sombreros. Only 10,000 will ever be made, and then they’re gone. Each one will be individually numbered and have my initials sewn into the fabric. Just tremendous sombreros. Deport yourself and you could own one of the greatest official Trump sombreros on Earth.”

“Get them before they’re gone. And then you’ll be gone.”

This isn’t the first incentive the White House has offered for self-deportation. A previous $1,000 stipend plus travel assistance offered by the government, however, failed to move self-deportation numbers dramatically. But analysts agree that Mexicans love sombreros.

At publishing time, each limited edition sombrero was expected to increase dramatically in value, allowing some lucky Mexicans to sell them and pay for the $100,000 H1-B visa application and return to the U.S legally.
