President Donald Trump has earned himself an unusual defender on Twitter: actress Lindsay Lohan.
The ‘Mean Girls’ star - who now resides in London - chose to spend her Independence Day weekend sticking up for our country’s President.
Replying to a Trump supporter’s tweet, Lohan asked users to “stop the bullying and start trusting him [Trump].”
THIS IS our president. Stop #bullying him & start trusting him. Thank you personally for supporting #THEUSA

Shortly after, Lohan tweeted her support of the entire First Family, calling Donald, Ivanka, Melania and Donald Trump Jr. “kind people.”
@realDonaldTrump @IvankaTrump @FLOTUS @DonaldJTrumpJr are kind people. As An American, why speak poorly of anyone? #FAITH #July4th

While some praised the former Disney star for defending Trump and his family…
I just gained so much respect for you Lindsay!!! I'm proud of you for standing up for our President, and for what's right. ??????

…others used the tweets as an opportunity to take a few jabs at Lohan and rehash her not so pretty past.
That Tweet proves you definitely need to be back in rehab!

Like many other celebrities, Lohan was a Hillary Clinton supporter during the 2016 election. However, when her candidate lost, the actress put party politics aside and got behind our new president.
During a live video on Facebook back in February, Lohan told viewers, “He is the president – we have to join him. If you can't beat him, join him."
Who knew we’d need Lindsay Lohan to teach Americans about civility and patriotism?
We may disagree politically but I agree 1000% on your compassionate comment. Thank You Lindsey, We All need to unite as Americans
