Last September, she condemned the Trump administration<\/a> and asked Trump voters if their opinion had changed in a post to Instagram.<\/p>\n \u201cI want to check in with trump voters. I have one very genuine question,\u201d she wrote. \u201cit\u2019s been 250 days. now that immigrants have been violently torn from their families and communities have been destroyed, now that trans people have been blamed for virtually everything and live in fear, now that free speech is on the brink of collapse for us all \u2014 has your life gotten better?\u201d<\/p>\n White House deputy press secretary Kush Desai responded\u00a0to Grande\u2019s post<\/a> at the time in a statement to TMZ using her song titles to clap back at the singer.<\/p>\n \u201cSave your tears, Ariana, because President Trump\u2019s actions ended Joe Biden\u2019s inflation crisis and are bringing in trillions in new investments,\u201d Desai claimed. \u201cHe even signed an executive order just like magic that paved the way for the FTC to crack down on Ticketmaster for ripping off Ariana Grande\u2019s concert-going fans. Get well soon, Ariana!\u201d<\/p>\n Grande is far from the only pop star to speak out against ICE, as Olivia Rodrigo,<\/a> Billie Eilish<\/a> and Sabrina Carpenter<\/a> have all slammed the Trump administration\u2019s deployment of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.<\/p>\n On the music side, Grande\u2019s petal lead single \u201cHate That I Made You Love Me\u201d debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100,<\/a> which gave her a 10th chart-topper.
