As we reported earlier, The New York Times said it had spoken to half a dozen people familiar with the matter to answer the now-burning question, "What does Natalie Harp actually do?" People have been asking since "Pee-wee Herman lookalike" Sen. Jon Ossoff said in a speech that President Donald Trump didn't want to do his job and just "travel with Natalie," well aware of the crude innuendo about a female staffer.
One of the co-writers of that New York Times piece was Maggie Haberman, who was praised by the Hillary Clinton campaign for "teeing up" stories for it. We read the piece, and there was only one person mentioned: Karoline Leavitt. Haberman described Harp as "a sylphlike woman" and "a platinum blonde geyser of positivity." Haberman most certainly is not a platinum blonde geyser of positivity. She took her story to the leftist Democracy Now! channel and expanded on her Times story, referring to Harp as "a human binkie."
"Natalie is essentially a body person. She is a human binkie. Somebody who loves him as much as his wife. He would say to aides she's never going to leave me." --

Maggie Haberman on Natalie Harp.
"She is his ever present aide known as the human printer. Left him these adoring… pic.twitter.com/IlL3A0oAXT
… letters one of which says 'you are all that matters to me'. She prints out pieces of good news for him and searches for information he wants to see."
Whoa … Trump's aide prints out information he wants to see? What a monster.
I don’t think I have ever seen @maggieNYT say anything nice about anyone. Have you? It is always swipes. Am I wrong? https://t.co/vW6yIxN13i

Agree. One of the reasons I ignore her. Some people are just negative. It's their way.

She is obviously an unhappy, miserable person who projects her feelings onto Trump.

I'm happy to say I never heard of this woman. Just another mean girl.

White women like Haberman and Erin Burnett really do seem to have it out for Harp.
Miserable woman putting out miserable comments. No surprise given the party she supports.

Why on earth do any of them care? POTUS outworks everyone, but these idiots act like he is goofing off to hang out with his new bestie. Grow up jackasses.

She's like a middle school mean girl who swipes at others to make herself feel better which is an unattractive trait.

She is a purveyor of brain poison, always has been, emphasis on the has-been.

It's not her job to be "nice". It's her job to be accurate and use scrupulous sources, which she does.

"Sylphlike"? What "scrupulous source" did she get that from?
Maggie, Natalie is still not going to go out with you.
— Bill for America (as founded) (@loooeybill) August 19, 2026
She makes crazy suppositions which always seem to turn out to be wrong. A real sour personality.

Maggie is a very unwell person. Mentally unstable and probably on an SSRI cocktail that makes her even more unstable. She’s a very unhappy person.
— msm =🗑️ (@NoOneYou_Know1) August 19, 2026
She is a miserable person who wants everyone to be miserable with her.

She was Hillary and Obama’s tool for bogus wrap up smears. Not something to be proud of.
— Michael McLaughlin (@mclaughli46343) August 19, 2026
As Nancy Pelosi said, this is the wrap-up smear. Ossoff teed it up with an offensive suggestion, and now The Times and CNN are treating the president's aide doing her job as some sort of scandal.
