3:32Now PlayingDonald Trump has a new spokesperson, and they are already making some pretty serious mistakes. Over the weekend, Liz Harrington tweeted out an article about his rally in Florida, not bothering to read it to realize that it contained a line about how his claims of election fraud were all lies. Harrington was immediately roasted on Twitter. This is the kind of competence that we have come to expect from Trump's people, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Donald Trump has a new spokesperson working for him, a woman by the name of Liz Harrington. And one of her first duties on the job was to go out there and hype up how awesome his rally was this past weekend in Sarasota, Florida. So she gets on Twitter on Sunday, tweets out an article talking about, Hey, there was a record crowd at the Sarasota fairground thinking, yeah, this is one of the greatest articles I can post out there because it mentions one good thing about the rally. I clearly don't need to read the rest of the article because it's clearly all flattering, right? Well, if Ms. Harrington had done her due diligence, she would have read a little further into the article and she would have come across this gym though. There has never been any substantial evidence of voter fraud that would've overturned. Trump's 2020 defeat. As Trump has claimed supporters in the crowd maintained that Trump
Won. So right there in the article, it mentions, yeah, your dude keeps lying and he's lying to the people in Sarasota about what actually took place in the 2020 presidential election. But you see Ms. Harrington didn't read the article. She didn't, she didn't scroll down that far. Maybe it was, you know, after the fold. So she just didn't bother to realize that she and in her new position is Donald Trump's spokesperson is tweeting out an article saying that he's lying to everybody about election fraud in the 20, 20 election. Now the good folks on Twitter and other social media outlets. Oh yeah. They were quick to point this out, you know, because they actually, they actually read, they knew what this article was about. I'm like Ms. Harrington, but look folks, this is it. Donald Trump promised us, you know, when he came to Washington, she's only gonna hire the best people.
Only the best people, but this little incident right here, as innocent as it may be is just another great example of how incompetent all of the people that Donald Trump has routinely surrounded himself with truly are. They really are that incompetent so incompetent that you can't bother to read an entire article. You know, you can't take two minutes out of your life to make sure you're not about to tweet something out. That's very stupid and is going to make you and your boss look like a complete moron, but that's exactly what happened here. Just a little bit effort, a little bit extra time, something, you know, open the article. Don't just tweet it because you like the headline, find out what it actually says, but she couldn't even do that because much like Trump got hung up on one spot where it actually praised him. And honestly, it didn't even really praise him. It just said, Hey, it was a record crowd at the Sarasota fairgrounds. I don't even know what that means. I don't know what a usual crowd at the Sarasota fairgrounds is, but I'm willing to bet it's not that giant. So it is what it is. Donald. Trump's got himself, a new spokesperson who is proving to be just as incompetent as every other person who has served as a spokesperson or press secretary for Donald Trump. Since he came to the white house in 2017,
