Deleted tweets show Natalie Harp’s zealous support of Trump on January 6

(CNN) — Years before Natalie Harp became a key White House aide to President Donald Trump, she flooded her Twitter feed with posts demonstrating extraordinary devotion to him on January 6, 2021.

A CNN review of Harp’s now-removed account on X, previously Twitter, found that Harp posted more than 150 tweets that day, urging Republicans to “FIGHT FOR TRUMP” as he began his speech near the White House. She echoed the president’s talking points that the election was stolen, and amplified rhetoric of his allies, who also sought to undermine the legitimacy of Joe Biden’s election win. Harp’s X account appears suspended. It’s unclear when her account was taken down, and whether she or the platform removed her posts.

Harp’s devotion is hardly unusual in Trump’s inner circle: The president stocked his White House with loyalists. But her January 6 posts offered a public display of fealty, as she praised those fighting to keep Trump in office and repeatedly cast him and his allies in heroic terms.

“She has proven to be a totally loyal sycophantic adviser and staffer for him,” said David B. Cohen, a political science professor at the University of Akron who studies the American presidency. “Trump likes that, he doesn’t like to be questioned. He likes to be revered, and she clearly does that.

Neither Harp nor the White House responded to CNN’s requests for comment.

As a crowd descended on Washington, DC, on the morning of January 6, Harp, a One America News Network host whose Twitter bio described her as a Trump “advisory board” member, shared comments from Trump’s family members declaring, “This movement will never, ever die!” and “This fight has only just begun.”

Harp, then 29, praised pro-Trump demonstrators gathering for Trump’s speech as “patriots” and challenged lawmakers to show “a fraction of the courage & passion” of the crowd, declaring: “today we STOP THE STEAL!”

She also promoted Rudy Giuliani’s call, “let’s have trial by combat!” during his speech, although lawyers for Giuliani later asserted his call was “hyperbolic,” and not a call for violence. When the president began to speak, Harp tweeted, “FIGHT FOR TRUMP!” a dozen times within a single post, adding, “Today D.C. is TRUMP COUNTRY!” She live tweeted the president’s speech: “We will never give up. We will never concede!”

And after a pro-Trump mob forced its way into the US Capitol, Harp shared tweets insisting the rioters were “not Trump supporters,” and circulated false reports that Antifa had infiltrated the mob. Later, Harp shared Trump’s calls for the rioters to go home.

Hours after the Capitol attack forced Congress to halt the electoral count, Harp again amplified Giuliani, quoting his statements that the disruption had created “a few more options particularly with this delay” and that Trump’s legal team was working on “how we can take advantage of those options,” adding an American flag emoji.

After the House voted to reject the objection raised by Republican lawmakers to counting Arizona’s electoral votes, Harp tweeted: “America may not be America anymore. But God’s still God. Don’t stop believing!!”

Harp singled out lawmakers who continued to challenge the results, thanking Rep. Jody Hice for being “a man of his word and the Constitution,” praising Marjorie Taylor Greene for her “courage,” and calling Josh Hawley “a true patriot” who “refuses to be intimidated out of his duty to the Constitution.” She also hailed the six senators who voted to sustain objections — Ted Cruz, Hawley, Cindy Hyde-Smith, John Kennedy, Roger Marshall and Tommy Tuberville — as “patriots” who “did not waver in the fight for our beloved country & @POTUS.”

The following day, after Trump publicly acknowledged that a new administration would take office, Harp shared his message that “our incredible journey is only just beginning.”

Fourteen minutes later, she added her own declaration of loyalty: “We love you, President @realDonaldTrump!”

Harp’s apparent devotion to Trump’s election lie narrative didn’t begin on January 6, 2021, according to CNN’s review. In the weeks leading up to the Capitol riot, she posted to her followers, “We will never give up – for TRUTH is on our side. January 6th is coming!!.”

“WE LOVE YOU! WE LOVE YOU! WE LOVE YOU! x 71 million,” Harp posted days after the election results. Harp decried Biden’s win on December 14, posting, “THIS IS A COUP.”

Harp has served as a close aide to the president during his second term. Though she has worked mostly under the radar, she was thrust into the public eye this week when Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff mentioned her by name in a speech attacking Trump. On Thursday, the Daily Beast published two letters reportedly written to the president, expressing her utmost loyalty to him.

The tweets reviewed by CNN illustrate Harp’s devotion to Trump that dates back to at least 2016, when Harp appears to have first begun posting to Twitter about the president.

Harp also tweeted Bible verses in reference to the president, defending him the day he was impeached in 2019.

“Vindicate [@realDonaldTrump], my God, and plead [his] cause against an unfaithful nation,” and “.@realDonaldTrump, ‘I thank my God upon every remembrance of you!!!’”
