One of Trump’s most trusted aides wrote him admiring letters saying: ‘You’re the only thing that matters to me’

One of Donald Trump’s most trusted aides has reportedly written him a series of admiring letters, including one in which she told the president-elect, “You are the only thing that matters to me.”

Natalie Harp, a former right-wing cable TV host, had been on Trump’s radar since 2019 after her cancer survivor story caught his attention and he invited her to speak at the 2020 Republican National Convention (RNC).

She later joined his staff in 2022 as a dedicated assistant, although she has no official title. It is also uncertain what role, if any, Harp will play in the next administration.

Harp is reportedly known to carry a printer and a battery to ensure the president-elect can get paper copies of briefings (his preference) and once ran behind his golf cart in Scotland to keep him informed of positive news stories, according to The New York Times.

However, something that caught the attention and raised eyebrows from some within the Trump campaign was a series of letters the 33-year-old wrote to Trump in 2023, according to half a dozen people with knowledge of them.

“You are the only thing that matters to me,” Harp wrote in one of the letters seen The timeswhich also confirmed their authenticity. “I never want to let you down,” read another article, which also thanked Trump for being her “Guardian and Protector in this life.”

In another letter, she told the president-elect that she wanted to regain “that synergy” she used to have with him, where “we talked about everything and nothing.” “I want to give you joy,” she wrote, “the feeling that we can get through the day without ever having to talk about ‘work’.”

Those who confirmed the existence and authenticity of the letters told the story The times that the letters had been somewhat unnerving.

In 2019, Harp, a devout Christian who grew up in California, published op Fox News and credited Trump with saving her life through the Right to Try law he signed in 2018, giving her access to experimental treatments. She was suffering from bone cancer, she said.

After being invited by Trump to speak on his behalf at the RNC in 2020, Harp left her job as an anchor at the far-right One America News Network and later went public with his baseless claims about the theft of the 2020 election.

The times reported that after his 2023 arraignment in Fulton County, Georgia, Trump once angrily noted that Harp was the only member of his staff who cared about him. He calls her “sweetheart” and treats her like a daughter, people close to the president-elect told the newspaper.

The times reports that she has previously provided Trump with a largely uncontrolled flow of information to and helped him with his often erratic social media feed, capitalizing some of his infamous messages.

However, that’s what Trump spokesman Steven Cheung said The times that Harp was “trusted and valued” and credited her “work ethic and dedication” with helping Trump win the 2024 election.
