Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff mentioned White House executive assistant Natalie Harp during a campaign speech Sunday while criticizing President Donald Trump’s approach to his duties. Ossoff also questioned Trump’s travel and referenced a ballroom project.
Trump criticized Ossoff after the remarks, and White House spokesperson Davis Ingle also attacked the senator in a post on X. Harp has been associated with Trump’s social media posts and accompanied him during a July aircraft change in Turkey that followed an apparent threat from Iran, while several Cabinet members and other personnel remained on the original aircraft.
