SNL opened season 52 by mocking Trump aide Natalie Harp’s devotion in a Gracie Mansion sketch. Harp warned Mayor Zohran Mamdani not to hurt Trump; later, Mamdani got Trump to agree to a $21 billion Queens housing project in exchange for an Instagram follow.
Harp, a 35-year-old White House staffer dubbed “the human printer,” came under media scrutiny this summer over her unusually personal relationship with Trump. Resurfaced letters she wrote him in 2023 included the line: “You are all that matters to me.”
James Austin Johnson played Trump, guest Ramy Youssef played Mamdani and Ashley Padilla played Harp. Trump likened Harp to “the girl from Obsession but blond”; she imitated the character before insisting she was “totally normal.”
