Former Mexican President Vicente Fox issued a cutting rejoinder to President Donald Trump on Wednesday night after Trump angrily called immigrants animals.

Fox used Twitter to hit back after Trumps anti-immigration rant during a White House meeting with California leaders.

Youve got to get your shit together, Fox tweeted at Trump.

.@realDonaldTrump, youve got to get your shit together: migrants are people who have left everything behind - not by choice, to pursue a better life. You must show compassion and humanity. your golden head and a #FuckingWall wont stop these peoples dreams and hopes. https://t.co/JC1NETBKqP

Migrants are people who have left everything behind not by choice, to pursue a better life, Fox added. You must show compassion and humanity. Your golden head and a #FuckingWall wont stop these peoples dreams and hopes.

Fox has repeatedly criticized Trump over his campaign promise to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and force Mexico to pay for it. In April, he promoted a T-shirt portraying Trump as a baby constructing a wall from toy bricks.

The garments caption read, Cant Build A Wall If Your Hands Are Too Small.

Fox has also previously suggested that mass shootings are what you get when such violent and aggressive language comes out from the White House.
