Late-night satire of Natalie Harp

Overview

Late-night television hosts have utilized satire to target Natalie Harp, an aide to Donald Trump.

On “The Daily Show,” Jon Stewart used a documentary trailer to mock the relationship between Trump and Harp, characterizing her as a conduit for information fed into the former president’s psyche. Stewart used visual editing to superimpose Trump’s face onto a documentary subject to emphasize his point.

Following this, Jimmy Kimmel featured a sketch on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” portraying a parody version of Harp, referred to as “Natalie 2.0.” The character, played by Molly McNearney, was depicted as an aggressively devoted aide who mirrored Harp’s real-life communications, such as describing Trump as a “guardian and protector.” The segment has since faced online backlash.
