Donald Trump\u2019s relationship with White House aide Natalie Harp is back in the spotlight after her estranged brother publicly called it \u201cvery unhealthy.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Natalie Harp, 34, has earned the nickname \u201cthe human printer\u201d inside the White House for her habit of carrying a portable printer and delivering the president a steady stream of printed news articles, emails, and documents throughout the day. She\u2019s widely regarded as one of Trump\u2019s closest and most trusted aides.<\/p>\n

But her brother Preston Harp isn\u2019t exactly a fan of the dynamic. In a recent interview with the Daily Mail, he called\u00a0Trump\u00a0a \u201cnational embarrassment\u201d and said his sister\u2019s level of dedication to the president has crossed into troubling territory.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s just like his fan club,\u201d he told the outlet, adding that he views the pair\u2019s connection as \u201cvery unhealthy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Who is Natalie Harp?<\/h2>\n

Preston said that the two siblings have been out of touch for years. He said he was caught off guard by just how prominent a role Natalie had carved out for herself in Trump\u2019s inner circle, according to\u00a0VT.<\/p>\n

Natalie\u2019s path to the White House started back in 2019, when she publicly credited Trump for signing the Right to Try Act. She went on to host at One America News Network before eventually joining Trump\u2019s team full-time.<\/p>\n

The book \u201cRegime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump,\u201d authored by New York Times journalists Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, claims that Harp left handwritten notes for Trump in spaces reserved exclusively for the president. One of those messages reportedly said: \u201cYou are all that matters to me.\u201d According to the book, the notes made some White House staffers uneasy.<\/p>\n

\u201d She\u2019ll never leave me\u201d<\/h2>\n

Separately, journalist Michael Wolff\u2019s \u201cAll or Nothing: How Trump Recaptured America\u201d also zeroes in on Harp\u2019s intensity, describing her as having a \u201cfixation\u201d on Trump that was an open secret among campaign staff. The book notes that even some Secret Service agents found her level of devotion unusual.<\/p>\n

For his part, Trump has apparently welcomed her loyalty. \u201cRegime Change\u201d reports that he once told staff Harp was \u201cthe only one who loved him as much as his wife and his kids.\u201d He also allegedly joked: \u201cAll of you will go off and make money. She\u2019ll never leave me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt described Harp as \u201cone of the most loyal and hardest working aides on President Trump\u2019s team\u201d when asked about her role.<\/p>\n

There has been no indication of any romantic relationship between the two, but Harp remains firmly in Trump\u2019s corner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
