Communications aide Natalie Harp, attorney Alina Habba, and attorney Emil Bove return to court during Former President Donald Trump's trial for allegedly covering up hush money payments at Manhattan Criminal Court on May 7, 2024 in New York City. Harp was reportedly responsible for reposting a video to Trump's social media account calling for a "unified reich."

The staffer responsible for posting a video to former President Donald Trump's social media, calling for a "unified Reich" was Natalie Harp - a Californian that those close to Trump refer to as "the human printer," according to a report. 

The video in question was deleted from Trump's social media account but not before outraged observers pointed out that it used language seemingly lifted from Nazi Germany. The 30-second clip shows a mockup of a newspaper article published after a 2024 victory for Trump.

"What's next for America," the fake newspaper text reads - "a unified Reich" and "German industrial strength."

Trump's campaign said that the post was a mistake. 

While the video was posted to Trump's personal social media account, sources close to the campaign say that 32-year-old Harp was actually responsible for the video. The staffer is known for gatekeeping Trump's access to news coverage and social media, as she follows him from Manhattan courtrooms to the campaign trail.

"If you want the [former] president to see something, the best route is Natalie," one staffer told the Bulwark. "Don't underestimate her importance."

Harp gained her "human printer" nickname because she travels with a portable printer, paper and batteries. The 78-year-old politician can more easily read the news through the printed papers that she gives him throughout the day, according to the Bulwark.

While Harp has become increasingly close to Trump since she first joined his team in 2019, higher-ups were quick to diminish her significance to the campaign after she reportedly posted the "unified Reich" video.

"This was not a campaign video, it was created by a random account online and reposted by a junior staffer who clearly did not see the word, while the President was in court," campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
