Internet mocks Spicer over tweet about how well Tillerson 'severed' the country

Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer was mocked by the internet on Tuesday after tweeting a message containing a typo.

“Secretary Tillerson is a true patriot that has severed our nation well. Thank you for serving,” Spicer wrote. “Mike Pompeo will be an outstanding Secretary of State – the Senate should act swiftly to confirm him.”

Responses included, “This whole administration has severed our nation well,” and, “Gonna need a really good editor with that book deal, Sean.”

President Trump announced Rex Tillerson’s dismissal in a Tuesday morning tweet.

“Mike Pompeo, Director of the CIA, will become our new Secretary of State,” the president tweeted. “He will do a fantastic job! Thank you to Rex Tillerson for his service! Gina Haspel will become the new Director of the CIA, and the first woman so chosen. Congratulations to all!”
