A 33-year-old aide with the nickname ‘human printer’ has ‘unnerved’ staff of President-elect Donald Trump for her excessively fawning letters and undying loyalty to their boss.
Natalie Harp penned the devotional missives Trump last year that showed an almost Christ-like devotion to the 78-year-old incoming commander-in-chief.
The New York Times reported Monday that sources were left uncomfortable about the obsequious messages.
‘You are all that matters to me,’ the former right wing host wrote in one of the letters.
‘I don’t ever want to let you down,’ she said, calling Trump her ‘Guardian and Protector in this life.’
In another letter she told Trump that she wanted to get back to ‘that synergy’ she used to have with him, where ‘we’d talk about everything and nothing.’
‘I want to bring you joy,’ she wrote, ‘to feel like we can get through a day without ever having to talk “work.”‘
Harp – who had no official title at Trump’s 2024 campaign – is expected to have an outsized role in the Trump 2.0 White House.
She was branded the ‘human printer’ after lugging around a portable printer and a battery pack in order to provide Trump with print-outs of information he requested.
But The Times reported that Harp didn’t act as a gatekeeper – instead furnishing Trump with information from websites like Gateway Pundit, known for pushing conspiracy theories online.
The newspaper also wrote that Harp was used for settling scores.
‘When people seeking influence with Mr. Trump want to turn him against their rivals, they send damaging clips to Ms. Harp, knowing she will pass them along, unvetted,’ The Times said.
She entered the president-elect’s orbit after crediting him with saving her life.
Harp is a bone cancer survivor and has credited the Right to Try law Trump signed in 2018 with saving her life, as it gave her access to experimental treatments.
Some experts have called into question whether that specific law can be credited, as she’s claimed.
Trump loved the story and invited Harp to speak on his behalf at the 2020 Republican National Convention, which was held in Washington, D.C. amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
She did some work for the campaign that cycle, before joining the right-wing One America News Network, where she echoed Trump’s false claims of widespread voter fraud costing him reelection.
Harp joined Trump’s communications team in 2022, when Trump was still in the political doghouse in the aftermath of the January 6 Capitol attack.
Since then, she is almost always at Trump’s side.
In a documentary about the 2024 race, Harp is seen typing out dictated social media posts, as Trump watches Vice President Kamala Harris’ Democratic National Convention speech.
She was with him throughout the Stormy Daniels hush money trial and is a companion on the golf course.
For Trump the devotion is seemingly mutual, with The Times reporting that he once scoffed that Harp is the only aide who truly cares about him, after he was arraigned in the Fulton County, Georgia case.
