Out in the Open

He doesn’t want to do the job. He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the emir of Qatar.  –  Jon Ossoff

One thing that never ceases to amuse me is the inability of vanilla squares to see something so obvious it’s practically dancing on their noses, because their understanding of human sexuality is so limited and ignorant that they completely lack the ability to recognize a kink relationship when they see it.  Case in point the mad emperor’s aide Natalie Harp, who has been in the news lately because the epigram above cast light upon their relationship, which Trump’s followers and enemies alike seem confused and embarrassed by.  Harp first came into the public eye in 2019, when she credited Trump for saving her from cancer; she joined his losing 2020 campaign and soon unsettled his other aides (and the Secret Service) with her obsessive, slavish devotion, following him around with a portable printer so she could print out laudatory articles for him to read.  For one of his New York court appearances in October 2023, his other staffers tried to ditch her by leaving no seat for her in a motorcade; she rode along in a vehicle’s trunk, like a piece of cargo.  During his 2024 campaign, they tried to keep her away from staying with him at his golf club by denying her a room; she responded by sleeping in the women’s locker room all summer.  When she accompanies him out on the golf course, he does not let her ride in his golf cart but forces her to trot along behind like a dog; she has written apology letters to him for being unable to keep up.  She has access to his “Truth Social” account and was responsible for the infamous tweet depicting the Obamas as apes.  And she writes him love letters which include phrases like “You are all that matters to me“, and signs them, “With all my heart, Natalie“.

Many on social media are implying that she is essentially the mad emperor’s favorite concubine, and of course his followers insist that their relationship is “chaste” and “spiritual”.  And both sides are right, and both are wrong.  Because any kinky person knows a D/s relationship when we see it, and it’s blatantly obvious that this is the psychosexual dynamic involved here (though neither of them probably recognizes it for what it is).  It’s not “chaste” in any way; it’s deeply sexual.  But not all sex involves genitalia or orgasm, despite the inability of squares to grasp that.
