Jimmy Kimmel mocks Natalie Harp in late-night sketch

Jimmy Kimmel used a sketch on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ to satirize Natalie Harp, a special assistant to Donald Trump. The segment featured Kimmel’s wife and co-head writer, Molly McNearney, portraying a parody version of Harp referred to as ‘Natalie 2.0.’

In the sketch, McNearney’s character acted as an aggressively devoted and clingy aide, interrupting Kimmel’s monologue while carrying a laptop, briefcase, and golf set. The parody included dialogue mirroring Harp’s real-life communications with Trump, such as calling him a ‘guardian and protector.’ The character also offered to post ‘Truths’ on his behalf and exhibited an obsessive demeanor, eventually shouting at Kimmel that his wife did not deserve him before being escorted offstage.

The segment has drawn attention and online backlash following its depiction of the relationship between Harp and the former president.
