After an emotional, chaos-filled weekend stemming from Donald Trump's ordered immigration ban, people are taking every Trump-related tweet into serious consideration... even ones from 2011.

Following the order -- which resulted in protests at airports across the United States after legal U.S. residents and immigrants were detained -- Twitter users happened upon a nearly six-year-old tweet from the official Trump Hotels account, representing the president's former business franchise.

Then came the trolling.

On Oct. 11, 2011, Trump Hotels simply asked followers to recall and share their favorite travel memories -- whether that be a photograph, a souvenir or a sunset.

The tweet wasn't very popular back in the day, but following Trump's controversial immigration ban on Friday things started to get heated.

Twitter users began replying to the 2011 tweet, sharing powerful travel-related memories about loved ones and personal experiences to inform President Trump what life is really like for immigrants.

Over the weekend, a tweet from Trump's daughter Ivanka, showing her and her husband Jared Kushner ready for a night out, also came under fire, and a handful of celebrities used Twitter to share their thoughts on the president's immigration ban.
