Natalie Harp, former anchor for far-right One America News and a close aide of President-elect Donald Trump, will maintain her influential role in Trumpworld, according to a new report from the New York Times.
“Ms. Harp is now poised to play a potentially influential role in his White House, sitting right outside the Oval Office and acting as the conduit for a largely unsupervised flow of information to and from the president and helping him with his social media feed,” reported the Times on Monday.
Harp is not a well-known figure outside of Trumpworld, but she is known by those closest to him for her absolute devotion and constant personal attention. The Times reported:
A 33-year-old former far-right cable host, Ms. Harp is nearly always at Mr. Trump’s side. She has written him a series of devotional letters, including one that said, “You are all that matters to me.” Once, when Mr. Trump was playing golf in Scotland, she ran behind his cart to keep him up to date with positive stories and social media posts.
Little known beyond Mr. Trump’s immediate orbit, Ms. Harp is now poised to play a potentially influential role in his White House, sitting right outside the Oval Office and acting as the conduit for a largely unsupervised flow of information to and from the president and helping him with his social media feed.
The report added that Harp has been nicknamed the “human printer” for often following Trump around with a printer so that she can give him a hardcopy of news items, his preferred way to read.
“But Ms. Harp also established herself at the center of a fast-moving carousel of text messages, articles and tidbits directed at Mr. Trump. This has generated concern among other aides who feel she has been far too willing to serve as a funnel for conspiratorial information at a moment when Mr. Trump appears more contemptuous than ever of attempts to manage or control him. One of her go-to news sources, people who have observed her say, is the website Gateway Pundit, which frequently disseminates conspiracy theories embraced by the far right,” added the Times of the type of news Harp feeds Trump.
Harp was seen in a recent viral video taking dictation from Trump as he “live tweeted” on Truth Social his reaction to the Democratic National Convention.
