President Donald Trump is "too mentally feeble" to hold office and a "crazy, stalker-ish" aide has effectively taken control of the West Wing, former RNC spokesperson Cheri Jacobus said.
Jacobus made the comments on her Tuesday YouTube show, Politics with Cheri Jacobus, about Natalie Harp, 34, an aide to Trump since 2022 who became his executive assistant when he took office in January 2025.
"Natalie Harp. She's a 34-year-old executive assistant to Trump, and she has unnerved her colleagues by leaving out letters for Trump that say things like, 'You are all that matters to me,'" Jacobus said.
"They've raised alarms ... about her feeding the president unhinged online content and being the driving force behind his bizarre Truth Social posts," she continued.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Harp compiles content for Trump's approval and then logs into his account herself, often late at night, to post it.
"What's bizarre and disturbing is that he is so vulnerable to this sort of undue influence. This is somebody who should not be in office — he is too old and too mentally feeble," Jacobus observed.
"But she's got this devotion to Trump that's just disturbing. Very, very disturbing. And other staff at the White House are concerned. And you know how disturbing the other staff at the Trump White House are — so if they're disturbed and concerned about this, my God, that's pretty bad," the former RNC official noted.
Trump's closeness to Harp was documented in Regime Change, a new book by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, which reported Harp left Trump notes reading, "You are all that matters to me."
"All right, this woman is a danger," Jacobus said. "Very concerning. I don't know what we do about it."
"Republicans in Congress won't do anything about it. Susie Wiles isn't doing anything about it. We know Trump's kids don't care about him... Certainly, Melania isn't," she warned.
"So it looks like this crazy, stalker-ish person, this Natalie Harp, is the one who makes the decisions in this White House. Think about that. It's frightening," Jacobus concluded.
