Maggie Haberman revealed Friday that President Donald Trump has a boy "binkie," too.
Haberman appeared on CNN to discuss her ongoing analysis of the relationship Trump shares with aide Natalie Harp, dubbed Trump's human "binkie" by the New York Times journalist last weekend.
"There are men who have played that role for him too," Haberman said. "Sometimes you just want somebody to tell you everything is going to be okay. That is a lot of what the president values."
Haberman first made her binkie claim last weekend, when she appeared on MS NOW Sunday morning to discuss recent reporting on Trump's catering container escape — and those who made it with him.
"I can guess why Natalie Harp [was there]," said Haberman. "She is sort of his binkie for lack of a better way of putting it."
On Friday, Haberman argued Harp's ability to comfort him constantly is what Trump values in her most.
"She doesn't really do much outside of work, she works constantly for him," said Haberman. "That is something that he has a huge amount of value in."
Then she revealed the name of a man she considers Trump's masculine binkie.
"One of them would be Boris Epshteyn," she said. "The president describes him as his psychiatrist."
