The White House spokesman on Monday provided an official – and remarkably rude – response to Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) highlighting rumors about President Donald Trump and his close personal aide Natalie Harp.

Stephen Cheung, the White House director of communications, responded to NBC News national political reporter Sahil Kapur’s social media post with a video clip of Ossoff saying that Trump only “wants to build the ballroom and travel with Natalie” instead of focusing on the war he started against Iran.
“Instead of denigrating hard working people serving their country,” Cheung wrote, after making sexually suggestive comments about the senator and intentionally misspelling his last name in an insulting way, adding, “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.”
The official White House response to Ossoff’s innuendo drew gasps and raised new questions about the 80-year-old president’s relationship with his much younger aide.
“It appears that @ossoff touched a nerve by mentioning Trump’s odd relationship with ‘human printer’ Natalie Harp,” observed podcaster Tommy Vietor. “Seems like something that media should explore!”
“Seems like Ossoff hit a nerve with that one,” agreed congressional staffer Aaron Fritschner.

“If this is the crash out Trumps staff are doing right now, then it sounds like the hit dog is hollering,” suggested political commentator Zaid Jilani.
“Can you imagine the press coverage if a Democratic White House employed a disgusting pig monster like this tub of sh-t?” wondered Democratic strategist Adam Parkhomenko.
“I know I’m old now because I really wish we had a politics where the White House Communications Director would be immediately fired for tweeting something like this,” posted former Joe Biden advisor Michael Linden.
“The total lack of substance in Cheung’s tweet is pretty remarkable,” noted former congressional staffer Michael Brodek.
“Extremely telling that Cheung goes straight to ‘cuck loser’ when Jon Ossoff cracks a joke about Trump’s young, single executive assistant who’s been caught at Trump’s bedside at night before,” opined activist Hunter Dunn. “Little buddy’s mad he doesn’t have his own Natalie lol.”
