Senator John Ossoff publicly questioned President Trump's close relationship with his 34-year-old assistant Natalie Harp at an Atlanta rally, prompting a furious response from the White House. Trump himself called Ossoff a 'Pee-Wee Herman lookalike,' while Communications Director Steven Cheung and spokesperson Davis Ingle launched personal and homophobic insults. The article notes that Harp's relationship with Trump has long been scrutinized, including reports that she left him love letters and that her brother described the relationship as 'very unhealthy.' Ossoff's comments also referenced Harp accompanying Trump on a secret flight out of Turkey amid security concerns, while other officials remained behind.
