The White House social media team took time to lash out at a reporter after the journalist pointed out that Donald Trump’s aide Natalie Harp was among the aides following the president to his golf club in Ireland this weekend.
The Rapid Response 47 account, which is often the vessel for the White House to reprimand reporters it claims are being unfair to the president, referred to independent journalist Aaron Rupar as a “sick, deluded freak” after Rupar posted on his X account, “Look who made the trip to Ireland! #TravelWithNatalie”, using a hashtag he has used to document instances where Harp has been spotted close by the president’s side.
