Who Is Natalie Harp? 5 Things to Know About Donald Trump’s Aide

Natalie Harp has emerged as a constant fixture in Donald Trump’s political inner circle. The 35-year-old currently serves as both a special and executive assistant to the president, often seen standing just steps away from him during high-profile public appearances and White House events.

Before her rise in the political world, Harp built a foundation in business and media. She is a graduate of Point Loma Nazarene University and holds an MBA from the evangelical Liberty University, which she completed in 2015.

The 'Human Printer' and Social Media Gatekeeper

During the 2024 campaign trail, Harp earned the unique nickname 'human printer.' She reportedly followed Trump while carrying a portable printer and battery pack, ensuring the president could read news articles and social media updates on paper, his preferred format.

Her influence extends to the digital realm, where she is one of the few aides trusted with access to Trump’s Truth Social account. Harp takes dictation for his posts and suggests content for his feed, though her role has not been without controversy regarding certain inflammatory videos shared on the platform.

From News Anchor to Loyal Aide

Harp’s transition to Trump’s staff followed a stint as a television presenter for One America News Network. Starting in 2020, she hosted 'The Real Story With Natalie Harp,' where she frequently interviewed Trump allies and discussed claims regarding the 2020 election results.

Her loyalty to Trump is deeply personal, rooted in her experience battling stage 2 bone cancer. Harp has publicly credited the president’s 'Right to Try' legislation for her survival, despite some medical experts noting her treatment may have been legally available prior to the act's passage.

During the 2020 Republican National Convention, she expressed her gratitude by stating, "President Trump was the only one who gave me a chance." Today, she remains a primary figure in his daily operations, bridge-building between the president and his vast online audience.
