In December last year, 14 people were killed and 22 others seriously injured in a mass shooting in San Bernardino, California.

One Twitter user tweeted about Donald Trump's temporary ban on people from seven Muslim-majority countries coming into the US. He said this:

With a #MuslimBan, the San Bernardino shooting would have never happened and 14 people would still be alive. Thank you #President Trump!

But people didn't let him get away with it:

Well, that's awkward.

Renee Wetzel, whose husband was murdered in the San Bernardino attacks, posted to Facebook to denounce Trump's ban:
