7. Yes, it's propaganda. "White" propaganda to be exact. "White" because you know the source - the Trump regime.

It's also shameful, sick, and twisted.

That type of propaganda is also known as fast propaganda - instant impact for its intended audience. Hits hard and fast for a powerful impact. Slow propaganda is meant to inculcate/indoctrinate ideas over time.

Also, it is an example of propaganda of deed - because of its psychological effect. Said effect enforces a lasting retention of emotion/feeling.

You see the photo of "undesirables" boarding a plan in chains and if you support such things, you cheer - that cheer being an emotional response that is
now psychologically driven home.
