Donald and Melania Trump recently visited Dayton, Ohio and El Paso, Texas, to pay their respects following last weekend’s mass shooting.
However, during their visit to a hospital in El Paso, Donald Trump spoke to first responders about his crowd size, which was obviously inappropriate.
Footage shows the president saying: “I was here three months ago, we had a speech. That was some crowd. We had twice the number outside. And then you had this crazy Beto. Beto had like 400 people in a parking lot, they said his crowd was wonderful.”
Twitter users claimed Melania Trump looked “horrified” towards the start of the footage.
The video shows Melania Trump initially smiling, with her facial expression becoming more serious as Donald begins talking about his speech.
One Twitter user posted: “Melania is horrified that Trump brags about crowd size in El Paso”.
