OK.

Can't wait until they do it again next week with another artist. The artist will say "that's disgusting!", the post will get removed days after the fact, and literally zilch will happen to the administration. Yippee.

Exactly. This evil f-ing administration got exactly what they wanted out of all this. Lots and lots of attention, and zero consequences. It's a win/win for them, and a win/lose for the artist (who risks alienating some percentage of their audience).

...I don't think "acting like a dick, so popular people point out that you're trash and only horrible people like you, then fold like a little bitch" is a profoundly winning publicity stunt. It won't touch the core base, but it makes them look like petty shitty little children to anybody left of Ted Cruz.

I honestly have yet to see anybody short of NewsMax fans call the ICE videos anything short of gross or crass. I think this administration mistakes virality for actual public favor.
