Today's Tiedrich rant: meet the woman whose job is to keep Dear Leader stupid and happy [View all]

Natalie Harp is back in the news. she’s Donny Convict’s happy-news wireless-printer lady. she keeps Donny safely inside his little bubble of ignorance — and she’s a total fucking weirdo whose unhealthy adoration of Dear Leader is way over the top.

cast your mind back to those far-less-complicated days of this past summer, when Donny Not-Yet-A-Convict was in the news for being a narcoleptic courtroom fart-factory. within that circus was a sideshow. reporters noticed a woman — carrying a portable printer — who was following Donny around.



This week, as the Stormy Daniels hush money trial kicked off, New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman noted the presence of a figure in court whose job responsibility sounded like a joke, writing that her job was to carry around a “wireless printer” to provide the former president with an “ongoing stream of good news from the internet.”

But it turns out that the aide is very real. Her name is Natalie Harp, a former One America News anchor who joined Trump’s communications team in March 2022. According to reporting that year by the Washington Post, Harp would even accompany the former reality TV host on golf trips in a cart “equipped with a laptop and sometimes a printer to show him uplifting news articles, online posts, or other materials.”

so that’s a perfectly normal thing, right? seriously, how fucking broken-inside do you have to be to require that kind of constant positive affirmation?

well, Natalie’s now part of Dear Leader’s inner circle, and is headed to the White House — and she’s filling Donny’s rapidly-dementing ear with so much conspiratorial nonsense that even his Confederacy of Sewer Clowns is concerned about the unfettered access she has.
