The make-up of Donald Trump’s inner circle has come under scrutiny after US Senator Jon Ossoff remarked on the President’s close relationship with his executive assistant, Natalie Harp.

The White House fired back at his comments about Trump simply wanting to “travel with Natalie“, calling Harp, 35, “one of the most loyal and hardest-working aides on President Trump’s team”.

The clash highlighted how Trump has surrounded himself with young, perfectly groomed Maga women in the White House, with the President regularly referring to their good looks and admiring their spirited defences of his policies.

Harp has reportedly taken on a role as the 80-year-old’s “comfort blanket” and “gatekeeper”, who leaves him adoring notes telling him “I want to bring you joy”. But he is also regularly flanked by the likes of “White House influencer” Margo Martin, 30, and deputy press secretary Anna Kelly, a 29-year-old former beauty queen.
