Trump Team Is Pissed at Aide Secretly Enabling Crazed Nighttime Rants

There have been fewer typos and misspelled words is trump's posts lately but there are still weird capitalizations and strange phrasing. I have suspected that someone is helping trump in these posts. It seems that a trump "employee" stays up late to help trump in these posts.

An unequivocal irresponsible MORON

Trump Team Is Pissed at Aide Secretly Enabling Crazed Nighttime Rants

Harp doesn't share her drafts with anyone else in White House but the president, claiming she works for him & only him, reported the WSJ.

Even the president’s inner circle is tiring of his erratic, late-night social media binges—and the White House aide responsible for them.

Donald Trump’s executive assistant Natalie Harp is the woman behind his overnight Truth Social sprees, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday. Through twilight-hour shifts, Harp has created the impression that the president never sleeps and is instead spending his should-be bedtime obsessively retweeting baseless conspiracies about the 2020 presidential election and Fox News headlines about his purported popularity among the American public.

The 34-year-old aide supplies the president with stacks of printed-out drafts and awaits his approval before hitting post, sources told the Journal.

Her work has included posts that depicted Barack and Michelle Obama as apes, and an AI-generated image of Trump as Jesus Christ. Trump took down both posts after they spurred immense public backlash. In the former instance, Trump claimed he did not see the section of the video that racistly mocked the former president and first lady. A White House official blamed the mistake on an editing error.

The frustration lies partly in the perceived chain of command: Harp does not share her drafts with anyone else in the White House but the president, claiming that she works for him and only him, reported the Journal. That’s prompted tensions between Harp and some of the federal employees affected by her incendiary writing, such as the chief of staff’s office.

I have no doubt that trump's relationship with this lady goes beyond late nights editing of internet posts.

I don't believe he approves them.
I don't believe she awaits approval.
I don't believe that she physically posts them in the middle of the night. An HTML script does that.
But, I do believe someone other than The Failure is posting these crazy rants.

She looks like Ivanka when she was about that age. Ivanka is about 45 or so now, and doesn't seem to be around her dad very much anymore. If Ivanka isn't around, he may be looking for substitute.

Her excessively-bleached hair looks gray to me. Combine it with that black, high-necked granny dress, and she looks 60ish. Not to mention that her eye make-up just enhances the crow's feet...

As for her alleged hand in Trump's Truth Sinkhole overnight shitpost extravaganzas, I doubt she's the only one who writes a lot of them, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if she's the one who's up all night releasing them on Pervert Hoover's account. I doubt he is. No way in hell Grampy can stay awake all night.

But darn, my quick read was that Trump was pissed. Too bad it's only his team that is pissed.
