Overview
- Excerpts from Regime Change published June 23–24 describe aides’ accounts that Natalie Harp left admiring handwritten notes for the president and maintained constant personal access.
- The book and contemporaneous reporting say Harp earned the nickname “the human printer” for supplying printed articles and helped prepare or post controversial Truth Social content that was later deleted.
- Authors Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan report Harp accompanied Trump at Mar-a-Lago after 2020, bringing him positive media and social commentary that reinforced her influence.
- The White House has publicly defended Harp, with spokesperson Allison Schuster calling her a dedicated and loyal member of the administration, and no public discipline or investigation has been reported.
- Earlier reporting, including Michael Wolff’s 2025 book, recorded Secret Service unease about Harp’s closeness, and the new excerpts raise questions about how personal loyalty can create informal power over presidential messaging and staff dynamics.
