Trump on Friday was mercilessly mocked for confusing Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi, resulting in the ex-president blaming the former for the events of Jan. 6. Trump was delivering remarks in Concord, New Hampshire, on Friday, when he said that Haley was “offered 10,000 people” on Jan. 6, and implied that she was involved in the deleting of video evidence.
“Do we need to do the dementia test again?” asked national security attorney Bradley P. Moss. MSNBC personality Mehdi Hasan had a similar take, asking, “Does he need to take the ‘person woman man camera TV’ test again?”

On Saturday, Trump posted about Haley on his Truth Social platform, and the comments were less than charitable to Trump.
“Nikki ‘Birdbrain’ Haley is losing BIG in the polls against Crooked Joe. I am beating him all over the place,” the ex-president wrote. “She is WEAK ON THE BORDER, I AM THE STRONGEST BORDER PRESIDENT, EVER. That’s all you have to know!!!”
The comments rolled in.
A user named John McKeehan wrote, “Same Nikki from Jan 6 who didn’t issue national guard? You are unfit for office.”
An account called New Independent noted that Trump recently bragged about “acing” a competency test.
“After announcing to the state of New Hampshire that he had aced his cognitive test, Donald Trump incorrectly blamed Republican rival Nikki Haley for being ‘in charge of security’ during the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol.”
“Need to just retire,” the account wrote on Saturday.
Another user joked that Haley had “failed to provide 10k National Guard members on Jan. 6, lard-ass.”
:You said so yourself, you treasonous moron,” the user wrote.
A conservative account also noticed it.:
“Last night Dementia Donald didn’t know the difference between Nancy and Nikki,” Real Patriot wrote. “Nikki wasn’t even in office at the same time!”
It continued:
“We can’t have this dementia brain in office.”
Another T.S. user wrote, “Is this the same Nikki Haley you confused with Nancy Pelosi last night because you’re in serious mental decline?”
