Trump Is Furious That Sen. Jon Ossoff Called Out His Relationship With Natalie Harp
The president and his White House had a breakdown after Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) called out Trump's relationship with Natalie Harp, because Trump gets angry when personal matters are discussed.
Trump went ballistic yesterday on Sen. Jon Ossoff, and the White House has been criticizing the Georgia Democrat, saying he took a cheap shot at the president.
You may have heard about Trump’s personal aide, Natalie Harp, on social media. She is the woman who always carries the bag near Trump. The president’s critics have claimed, with no proof or evidence, that Harp’s job is to carry Trump’s adult diapers.

What is clear is that Harp is a close aide to Trump. She was one of the people smuggled out of Turkey with Trump when the terrified president was scared into hiding in a food truck by Netanyahu.
Semafor reported that Trump gets furious over comments like those made by Ossoff:
But his comment that Trump “wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie” landed as “a cheap shot,” one administration official said.
Harp’s proximity to Trump has unnerved some of his aides and sparked unfounded rumors about a relationship.
One person close to the White House said Harp “will ultimately jump the highest out of anyone in the room when he says jump,” adding that the aggressive pushback is partly because “the first lady doesn’t like these types of things” and Trump “does get furious” about personal topics.
A president who takes cheap shots at everyone around him can’t take it when the shoe is on the other foot.
Sen. Ossoff replied to Trump at an event on Tuesday.
