Donald Trump’s Wild Claim: “They’re Eating the Pets!” – The Truth Behind “Make Pets Safe Again”

The Moment That Sparked a Movement

In one of the most memorable moments from the 2024 Trump-Harris presidential debate, Donald Trump said something that left both audiences and pets nationwide with their jaws—and paws—on the floor.

“In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs, the people that came in, they’re eating the cats… They’re eating the pets of the people that live there.”
— Donald J. Trump, former President Of The United States (Trump – Harris Presidential Debate. September 10, 2024)

Yes, you read that right. Trump, in a debate on live television, suggested that people in Springfield are eating pets—cats, dogs, the whole lot. And just like that, the internet exploded, memes were born, and we realized something very important: It’s time to “Make Pets Safe Again.”

The Debate Bombshell: Did Trump Really Say That?

Let’s backtrack for a second. On September 10, 2024, during a heated exchange with Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump—known for his off-the-cuff remarks and flair for exaggeration—dropped this bizarre claim. In the middle of a conversation about immigration, crime, and the state of the country, Trump pivoted to an unusual and horrifying scenario: people eating pets in Springfield.

Was this a real issue in Springfield? Are people out there roasting Rover and frying up Fluffy? The short answer is no. There’s no evidence of such a thing happening, and to date, no investigative report has confirmed a citywide pet barbecue. But once those words left Trump’s mouth, they took on a life of their own.

And that’s where we come in—with our exclusive “Make Pets Safe Again” embroidered red hats. Because when a former president brings up people eating pets during a presidential debate, the only logical response is to start a movement to protect our furry friends.

Why We Need to “Make Pets Safe Again”

We know Trump has a habit of mixing hyperbole with fact, but when a quote like, “They’re eating the dogs, they’re eating the cats,” hits national television, it’s time to act—if only for our pets’ peace of mind.

But Trump’s words have sparked a much larger conversation about how we treat our furry companions.
