Lea Thompson had choice words for her ex-fiancé Dennis Quaid over his support of Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
The “Back to the Future” actress, 63, responded to a video on X of Quaid, 70, stumping for Trump, 78, at the Republican candidate’s campaign rally in Coachella, Calif., on Saturday.
“I was engaged to him,” Thompson wrote, alongside a thinking emoji.
“#VoteBlueToStopTheStupid #crimeisactuallydown,” she also wrote, imploring her followers to vote for Kamala Harris instead of Trump in the Nov. 5 election.
In the clip, Quaid said onstage at Trump’s rally, “Are we going to be a nation of law and order? Or wide open borders? Which is it? Because it’s time to pick a side.”
Thompson and Quaid started dating in 1982 after meeting on the set of “Jaws 3-D.”
They were engaged from 1984 until they broke up in 1987, after Thompson met her now-husband, Howard Deutch, on the set of “Some Kind of Wonderful” in 1986.
The couple have two children together, actors Madelyn and Zoey Deutch.
Quaid, meanwhile, got married to his fourth wife, Laura Savoie, in 2020.
He has three children, including “The Boys” actor Jack Quaid, who he shares with ex Meg Ryan.
Quaid endorsed Trump for president on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” earlier this year.
During his speech on Saturday, Quaid compared the current year with the 1980 election which was won by Ronald Reagan, whom he recently played in the eponymous film “Reagan.”
“Reagan is my favorite president of the 20th century,” the “Parent Trap” actor said to the crowd while donning a red MAGA hat, adding, “Donald Trump is my favorite president of the 21st century.”
Quaid went to the rally with his brother, Randy Quaid, who is also an avid Trump supporter.
His son Jack, on the other hand, is supporting Harris, 59, in the race. Jack, 32, even participated in the “Geeks & Nerds for Harris” event with some of his “The Boys” co-stars last month.
“Dear lord she absolutely crushed it last night,” Jack wrote on Instagram the day after the Sept. 10 debate between Harris and Trump.
Ironically, “The Boys” supervillain Homelander (played by Antony Starr) has been compared to Trump, especially in the show’s latest season.
In an interview with the Daily Beast in July, Jack agreed that the Prime Video series resembles the current state of US politics.
“I always hesitate to be like, ‘No, this is the subtext,’ because art is interpretive. I think the intent of it is leaning more toward the liberal side. At least, I’d like to think that, absolutely,” the “Scream” star said.
