In a campaign stop in South Carolina, former President Donald Trump directed comments towards his Republican rival, Nikki Haley, mocking her husband's absence on the campaign trail due to his deployment overseas. Trump questioned Haley's husband's whereabouts, prompting backlash for his insensitivity given the circumstances. It should be noted that Haley's husband is currently serving his country abroad.
The former president also took the opportunity to celebrate his role in opposing the Senate's border security deal, despite admitting to not knowing its specifics. Trump urged Republicans to oppose the legislation, stating that they should prevent President Biden from achieving a victory before the upcoming election. He expressed satisfaction in what he referred to as a victory in 'crushing' Biden's open borders bill.
