Folks, I almost spilled my coffee reading this one. Natalie Harp, a hyper-loyal aide to Donald Trump, has been making waves in Trump’s orbit. It all started in October 2023, when Trump was due to appear in a New York City courthouse, and Harp was determined to be by his side. Despite being denied a seat in the motorcade, Harp jumped into an SUV trunk to ensure she wouldn’t be left behind. I mean, you can’t make this stuff up. A photo obtained by CNN confirms this, and I’m still trying to wrap my head around it.
It turns out that Harp has been a constant presence in Trump’s life since joining his staff in 2022. She’s been dubbed the “human printer” due to her ability to feed Trump positive stories, social media posts, and other correspondence. Trump has even praised her speed, saying “Natalie is so fast” after asking her to find or print something for him. I guess that’s one way to get a raise.
Harp’s relationship with Trump has come under scrutiny, particularly after Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff mentioned her by name in a speech attacking Trump. The Georgia senator swiped at Trump’s “travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar.” I’m not sure what’s more surprising, the fact that Harp was on the plane or that the Emir of Qatar gifted Trump a flying palace. Somewhere in Atlanta, a producer thought this sounded terrifying, and now we’re all talking about it.
As I continued reading, I found out that Harp has become a main conduit between Trump and the outside world. She passes along messages from allies, sets up meetings, and even taps out Truth Social posts for Trump. It’s like she’s his own personal assistant, but with a lot more power. One White House adviser told CNN that Trump likes Harp’s attention and loyalty, saying she “doesn’t second guess, doesn’t question.” That’s either very admirable or very scary, depending on how you look at it.
The article goes on to describe Harp’s omnipresence in Trump’s life, from Oval Office signings to rallies. She’s always there, smiling and nodding along with the president. It’s a bit eerie, if you ask me. But hey, if Trump likes it, who am I to judge? One Republican lawmaker even noted that while they occasionally reach out to Trump directly, they always make sure Harp is aware. I guess that’s just how it works in Trump’s world.
In conclusion, Natalie Harp is a force to be reckoned with in Trump’s orbit. Her dedication and loyalty have earned her a special place in the president’s heart, and she’s not going anywhere anytime soon. As I finish my coffee, I’m left wondering what other surprises Harp has in store for us. One thing’s for sure, it’s going to be an interesting ride. And who knows, maybe Harp will even get her own reality TV show – “The Apprentice: White House Edition” has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?
