Harp, nicknamed "the human printer," reportedly helps craft social posts for Trump and is known to tote a portable printer to provide him positive printouts. Karoline Leavitt defended her, saying Harp "has a security clearance like everyone else" and is loyal. Meanwhile, her estranged brother Preston called her bond with Trump "unhealthy," suggesting an intense personal loyalty that alarms some insiders.
Insiders told MS Now that colleagues are making "subtle moves" to limit some of her access, with worries that unvetted material reaches the president. Harp herself has not publicly clarified the situation.
