White House loses it after Ossoff notes Trump's relationship with 35-year-old aide
President Donald Trump and two spokespersons lashed out Monday at Senator Jon Ossoff after he highlighted the 80-year-old Republican's relationship with a 35-year-old female aide.
Trump repeated his comparison of Ossoff to the iconic character created by the late comedian Paul Reubens when a reporter in the Oval Office asked about the Georgia Democrat's remarks: "You mean Pee-wee Herman?" Trump said.
White House communications director Steven Cheung got even more personal on social media, where he called Ossoff "Jon J***off" and "the biggest cuck loser in politics," using a shortened form of the word cuckold, which is also a slang insult for a weak or submissive man.
"Jon should look deep into his soul and ask himself why he's a miserable person who hates this country. It's because he's a radical, extremist Dumocrat," Cheung said.
Another White House spokesperson, Davis Ingle, also joined in, calling Ossoff a "cringeworthy, feminine theatre kid cosplaying as Barack Obama." "Nobody gives a s*** what this lightweight loser says," Ingle added on social media.
During a Sunday campaign rally in Atlanta, Ossoff assailed Trump's war against Iran and said he "sleeps through his meetings, he golfs, and trades stocks."
"He doesn't want to do the job. He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar," Ossoff added.
The "Natalie" he mentioned is White House aide Natalie Harp, 35, who was nicknamed the "human printer" by colleagues on Trump's 2024 campaign staff because she carried a portable, battery-powered device to make printouts for Trump, who prefers reading information on paper.
Harp, a former far-right cable TV host, has also written devotional letters to Trump, including one that said, "You are all that matters to me," according to the NYT.
Harp's estranged brother, Preston Harp, told The Daily Mail in June that her relationship with Trump was "very unhealthy," and said she likely saw him "as a kind of father figure because he embodies the doctrine of American exceptionalism."
Recent polls have put Ossoff ahead of Republican challenger Rep. Mike Collins by anywhere from four to 13 percentage points in a race that the Cook Political Report rates "Lean Democrat."
