Let me start this out by saying that I understand everyone needs to feel good about themselves, especially if they’re constantly in the public eye.

But Donald Trump ALREADY feels pretty darn good about himself, and did even through all those years when people forgot he existed for a minute.

It turns out that he’s hired an assistant who acts as a sort of “fluffer” — a vulgar term for someone in a different industry — in this context, meaning they’re paid to keep his ego inflated.

In a new article in the Washington Post, it’s reported that the new addition to his team, Natalie Harp makes more than $100,000 a year to follow Trump around on his various outings and stroke his ego.

Apparently she travels “equipped with a laptop and sometimes a wireless printer to show him uplifting news articles, online posts, or other materials.”

How else do you think he’d be aware of all the fawning, idiotic Trumper/MAGA tweets and Truth Social posts that he constantly reposts on his social media, so he can show the world how much people love him, how much they think he’s like Jesus?

Obviously he wants to be constantly reminded of his own greatness.

Of course, making him feel good isn’t her only job. Remember we mentioned a printer? She’s also paid to print out articles that mention him, his actions as president, or his trials… and Trump goes through redlining the articles to get past anything he thinks makes him sound bad. He sends them back to her, and she does a quick copy/paste, removing everything he’s deemed offensive, which he can then post.

What he’s doing is lining out the sections of articles that Natalie Harp has printed out for him. Then she redacts the sections that are unfavorable to him that he has crossed out, then Trump posts the redacted articles to Truth Social without the bad stuff. pic.twitter.com/zEkiLQ3JeM

And who’s actually paying Ms. Harp’s salary? His donors, of course. His donors pay his legal and medical bills, his campaign costs, everything.

I mean, it’s not like she’s the highest paid among his aides. He’s got a go-fer who makes $30,000 a month.

But the idea that a supposed billionaire needs an attractive young woman to follow him around on golf outings and to his court cases for the express purpose of fluffing up his ego is ridiculous in the extreme.
