A man and woman in Los Angeles, California, were caught on camera unleashing a stream of racist abuse during a road rage incident that has since gone viral. The footage, recorded at a red light, shows the pair directing slurs and political chants at another driver while he calmly films from his car.
The confrontation began with what appears to be a minor traffic dispute. The man recording has said he and his companion were simply holding a Mexican flag, not engaging with anyone, when the other vehicle pulled up and started shouting. What followed was an unhinged tirade that included shouts of “Go Trump,” “Fuck you Mexican,” and “Trump Trump Trump” from the woman in the passenger seat.
The man behind the camera, unfazed, goads them with “Go viral, do it.” Within hours, the video was spreading across social media.
Their license plate, 5TNV063, is now widely shared online as viewers urge the public to identify the couple. Instagram and Reddit users responded with a mix of outrage and mockery, many zeroing in on the absurdity and hate on display. “She is literally BARKING. But it’s not a cult,” one commenter wrote. Another said, “They LOVE yelling TRUMP like D. Trump would actually think anything of these people.”
One phrase in particular has echoed through both platforms: “Your mom should have swallowed you.” Originally hurled back at the aggressors in the video, it has since become a kind of meme — a way to sum up the disgust so many feel after watching the clip.
The political overtones aren’t subtle. Whether intended as provocation or simply second nature, shouting “Trump” in the middle of a racist meltdown sends a message that goes far beyond party lines. While Trump himself has often distanced his brand from overt bigotry, supporters like these continue to link his name to hate in public.
Los Angeles, often hailed for its diversity, isn’t new to this kind of incident. What stands out is how normalized it’s become for racism to be delivered alongside patriotism and political slogans. “MAGA folks stay mad for no reason, just filled with hate,” one viewer posted.
These incidents aren’t just viral content. They’re reflections of a deeper rot that still festers in public spaces, on camera, without shame.
