The Trump staffer responsible for posting an image of Trump using Nazi-inspired language about a "unified Reich" has now been identified. It was Natalie Harp, a former One America News anchor who first gained national attention when she falsely claimed at the 2020 GOP convention that Trump cured her cancer, and has become known as the "human printer" for following Trump around with a tiny printing device to feed him stories that make him feel good about himself.
The campaign, for its part, says it was an innocent mistake and Harp didn't see the Nazi language in the video before posting it. And Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), one of Trump's closest allies in Congress, went out of his way to proclaim he still had confidence in her.
"Natalie Harp is a professional, smart, talented individual who has proven herself to be an asset to President Trump," stated Graham in a post on X. "I have complete confidence in Natalie."

Commenters on social media were less than impressed — and many simply didn't buy the idea that Harp posted the language by accident in the first place.
"Talented at posting Nazi content?" wrote the account @jayacoop.
"Natalie Harp is a professional, smart, talented fascist who has proven herself to be an asset to the Unified Reich. I have complete confidence in devotion to the Project 2025 cause," wrote the account @DemocracyOn_X_, referring to the infamous plan by pro-Trump academics to remake the federal government into an army of Christian nationalists and MAGA loyalists.
"Only Lindsey Graham would take time to defend someone who is known as the 'human printer' to prove fealty to Trump for the 12,932nd time; while domestic & foreign affairs are in various forms of crisis & neglected by him," wrote former Senate staffer Howard Fineman. "Way to prioritize those taxpayer dollars, Lindsey!"
"Complete confidence as with the guy you accurately predicted would ruin the Republican Party?" wrote the account @kacang_tua, referencing Graham's infamous pre-2016 election tweet that nominating Trump would "destroy" the GOP — a sentiment he went back on as soon as Trump was elected.
"They used the word 'reich,' traitor," wrote the account @Staceyryn. "That’s not a mistake. This junior staffer may take the fall, but we all know you people mean it."
