Few qualities carry more weight for Donald Trump than loyalty, and few aides embody it as fully as his executive assistant, Natalie Harp.
A former TV presenter, Harp is a near-constant presence at Trump’s side — encouraging his Oval Office redesigns, typing up his Truth Social tirades and printing out online articles, a role that has earned her the nickname “the human printer.” She also leaves behind admiring notes for him to discover. Her devotion is so pronounced that the 80-year-old Republican once declared: “She’ll never leave me.”
These details about one of the most influential White House aides were revealed by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan in their new book Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump.

Not a cult, by the way. The rest of us are deranged.

At their level it's not a cult, it's weekend at Bernie's.
They know he's a pathetic sack of shit, but they know all they have to do is kiss his ass and deflect blame.
Some hit their limit and can't keep up the act, they get replaced. Eventually all that's left is blind sycophants with zero limits.
At the level of voters, it's a cult. Just not for those around him constantly.

Nothing to back this up but I assume she is some type of foreign asset. Not that they would really need to much to influence him but a pretty blonde lady is absolutely the winning move.

I don't get it, what's suspicious about a skinny 34-year-old blonde wanting to spend all her time around an 80-year-old diaper-smelling man-child who has literally nothing valuable about his life or personality except his fleeting grasp of unearned power and money?

YEA! just let people love eachother man! freelove! They're all consenting adults, age gaps a commie liberul myth, amirite? It's not illegal so there's nothing wrong about a rich man having a gf who happens to be 50 years younger than them. That's just called capitalism in action. Free love and free markets, amirite brothers?

Idk, as a foreign asset... Look, you'd be the ultimate bootlicker, but if you were fully bought into your nation as a project, sucking off one shit-crusted diaper dick to bend a global superpower to your whims is not a bad deal.

According to the journalist Alex Isenstadt, in one instance, Trump's wife Melania discovered Harp in his private quarters—an area reserved for the Trump family—delivering papers to him at night.

Maybe we can use the baseline and see of the factor is linear when heat is applied.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 62d
i propose a new hypothesis that the factor of degradation is geometric because now we can disagree about and test something. isn't collaborative science fun!

Maggie Haberman could have made a little less by being a reporter-whistleblower-hero, but that would have been risking her skin and bank account balance, rather than growing that balance.

Serinus@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 63d
Does she even consider it a mistake? As far as I know it was fully consentual.
Granted, it'd suck to only be known for that your whole life.
Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de · 5 pts · 62d
Yeah it was consensual but she was young and did not know what would be the consequences. Many people make dating mistakes when thay are young and then later understand that it was the wrong move.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 62d
I don't know how anyone could not consider it a mistake (which doesn't imply it wasn't consensual, just that it wasn't a good idea). She was lambasted on national television for years. It hindered her ability to find work. It had a massive negative impact on her life.

Still fucked up Hillary framed her as the seducer when she was like 21 at the time.
The Clinton's made it "she could have said no" when it was always "why the fuck did he let her?"
I still view the impeachment as a big turning point. Dems could have taken a stand and let Al Gore take the reigns. We'd all be so much better off right now.
Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca · 20 pts · 63d
He could have finished Clinton's term then had two more consecutive terms. How different could it have been to have Gore do something about climate change for 10 years?
That would have been around the time where it could have actually been possible to stop the world temp from going up 1-2 degrees, now 1-2 degrees is almost guaranteed and 3-4 might happen.
Jessicat@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 63d
I completely agree that the vitriol she faced was unwarranted and fucked up. Just pushing back on the grave rolling and the notion that she was ruined.
justaman123@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 63d
Yeah, did big oil know he was gonna be all crusader for the environment or did he crusade for the environment after the oil family stole the election from him in 2000. Either way we can blame all of climate change on the oil barrons, I don't care what people say about the cow farts man, it's the fucking oil
ETA: He was always on that climate science big oil had to steal he election from him. Imagine how much nice everything is in the Al Gore timeline, no 9/11, no patriot act. The glass/stegall gets reinstated, so does the fair doctrine act. Effective Antitrust for all the giant corporations. Single -payer healthcare. No recession in 08. Gah what a timeline.
Of course we do see Mitt Romney as president in 08 instead of Obama, maybe Jack Ryan but don't even get me started on that timeline... Things got weird
