Trump, himself an unrelenting pusher of those lies, announced Tuesday that he had hired former Republican National Committee spokeswoman Liz Harrington to replace departing spokesman Jason Miller.

Harrington said in a Tuesday statement that it is the honor of her life to represent Trump "and to stand for the truth."
