I am so glad that Maggie Haberman used the word binky because that is absolutely what Natalie Harp is.
As he continues to decline cognitively, Donald Trump needs the affirmation of nice stories about him.
But she also points out that Natalie Harp controls Donald Trump's social media.
That is a very important point to make and something that I think is being overlooked in all of this, the control that Natalie has over Donald Trump's phone.
what gets posted, who we're texting, who we're responding to, what we're seeing, and what she wants Donald Trump to see and not see.
And I think some reporting about Natalie Harp's brother makes this all the more interesting and exposes why the post Marjorie made is so bad for Trump.
The author noted that while no one in the Trump camp suspects a sexual relationship, there was nonetheless a conviction that Harp is hopelessly in love with Donald Trump and determined to be his higher-purpose bride.
The biographer attributed Melania Trump's continued absence from Trump during his campaign to his attachment to Natalie Harp.
Melania, whose appearances with her husband were carefully negotiated and choreographed, would not show up if Harp was around.
Since Harp was always around, Melania was never appearing with her husband, only in the last week of the campaign.
Wolf noted that 56-year-old First Lady did not move into the White House with Trump after his return to office.
Other than at ceremonial occasions or in a strictly official capacity, she has given up the role of wife, he wrote.
Trump, meanwhile, told his team early in the second term that Harp was the only one that loved him as much as his wife and kids.
Melania Trump's lawyer did not respond to a request for comment, while the White House communications director Stephen Chung responded to this piece in new reporting by saying, Michael Wolff is a lying sack of shit and has been proven to be a fraud.
He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination.
Only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump derangement syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.
Wow, that's a lot now, isn't it? So we know that there is this unhealthy relationship.
Natalie Harp, very protective over Donald Trump, wants to defend him and wants to make him feel good.
She wants to keep Donald Trump in a bubble, even more so than he already is because we know Donald Trump, whether because he doesn't want to be in touch with reality or because he has so many yes men and women kissing his ass.
