Donald Trump called out Democratic Party opponent Kamala Harris on Monday for staging a photo of Harris purportedly being briefed on the impacts of Hurricane Helene. In the photo, it appears Harris’ phone and headphones aren’t connected.
“I was just briefed by [FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell] on the latest developments about the ongoing impacts of Hurricane Helene,” Harris said in a social media post that accompanied the picture. “We also discussed our Administration’s continued actions to support emergency response and recovery.”
“I also spoke with [North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper] about the ongoing rescue and recovery efforts in North Carolina,” she added. “Our Administration will continue to stay in constant contact with state and local officials to ensure communities have the support and resources they need.”
Trump pounced on the picture.
“Another FAKE and STAGED photo from someone who has no clue what she is doing,” Trump shared on social media. “You have to plug the cord into the phone for it to work! Biden and Harris abandoned Americans in Afghanistan. They sacrificed Americans to an Open Border, and now, they have left Americans to drown in North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, and elsewhere in the South. Under this Administration, Americans always come last, because we have “leaders” who have no idea how to lead!”
