Conservative lawyer
George Conway mocked
Donald Trump on social media on Sunday after the former president spoke at a rally on Saturday about how people laughed at him over the amount of soldiers he wanted at the U.S.-Mexico border when he was president.
Trump, the
Republican presidential nominee, spoke at a campaign rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on Saturday—his first since he survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. The July 13 shooting left him with a bloodied right ear, killed one attendee and seriously injured two others. The gunman, 20-year-old
Thomas Matthew Crooks, was killed by Secret Service counter-snipers as investigators continue to determine a motive for the attack.
At Saturday's rally, while speaking about the U.S.-Mexico border wall, Trump said, "When I was building the wall, I said, 'You have to give us 28,000 soldiers' and they laughed at me. I hate when people laugh at me. I hate it. I hate it. It was so disrespectful."
Responding to Trump's remarks, Conway, a Trump critic who was previously married to the former president's former senior adviser,
Kellyanne Conway, took to X, formerly
Twitter, to mock Trump on Sunday.
"Yes, we did, and, yes, we do. And yes, we know. We most definitely know," Conway wrote as he tagged the recently launched Anti-Psychopath political action committee (PAC).
