Lea Thompson looks back on her three-year engagement to Dennis Quaid with some regret after he appeared at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Coachella, California, on Saturday. Thompson tweeted, “I was engaged to him,” along with a thinking emoji and the hashtags “#VoteBlueToStopTheStupid” and another hint that there is indeed crime under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Thompson and Quaid began dating in 1982 after meeting as actors on the set of Jaws 3-D. They were engaged from 1984 to 1987. Thompson met her now-husband Howard Deutch in 1986 on the set of “Some Kind of Wonderful.” Thompson became a prolific television director, while Quaid recently starred as Ronald Reagan in “Some Kind of Wonderful,” the poorly reviewed “Reagan” biopic.

During his speech at the campaign rally, Quaid told the crowd of Trump supporters that it was time to “pick a side.” He pointed to the viral video platform’s liberal bias and asked: “Are we going to be a pro-Constitution or pro-TikTok nation?”

The actor also spoke about his housekeeper Josie, who he said was “here illegally for over a decade, using her sister’s ID.” Despite the fact that Josie “worked for us” and “lived in fear” that she would be deported all the time, Quaid further explained, it was only after Trump’s election that the actor volunteered to help her obtain U.S. citizenship -to enable citizenship.

Quaid insisted that “the Harris-Biden fairytale just doesn’t work now.” Even four years ago, peace in the world was not a fairy tale. Peace in the Middle East – Trump was actually close to achieving the Abraham Accords, which would have recognized Israel from Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries and put us on the path to peace that we had tried so hard since biblical times of Ishmael and Isaac.”
