Sen. Jon Ossoff criticized President Donald Trump’s work and travel with aide Natalie Harp in a campaign speech, drawing personal attacks from Trump and a White House spokesperson. The exchange brought renewed attention to Harp’s role and proximity to Trump.
Ossoff criticized Trump in a campaign speech, saying the president wanted to build a ballroom and travel with Harp rather than do his job. The article says Harp was among a few aides who accompanied Trump when he switched aircraft in Turkey in July amid an apparent threat from Iran; Secretary of State Marco Rubio remained on the original plane.
Trump mocked Ossoff when asked about the remarks, and White House spokesperson Davis Ingle insulted the senator on X. In an interview with Jen Psaki, Ossoff said staff were telling Trump what he wanted to hear rather than what he needed to hear. The article also describes Harp’s work typing Trump’s dictated social media posts and recounts reporting about her letters to him.
