President Donald Trump hosted the teen lifeguard and the boy he saved in Santa Cruz in July, but that wasn’t on CNN’s Kristen Holmes’s mind. It was some cockamamie question about Natalie Harp, who has become the subject of gross innuendo from Democrats, specifically Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA), who insinuated that Trump was sleeping with his staff. No, that would be you people, Jon. Your party is the world heavyweight champions of s**ting where you eat, screwing aides, and even raping them allegedly. So, shut it.
Jon Ossoff attempts to clean up his "travel with Natalie" line by claiming it was a commentary about all of President Trump's White House aides in general.

Holmes wasn’t as overt, but questions are arising, and Trump wasn’t having any of it, essentially telling her to shut the hell up. CNN blew a gasket, posting a statement of support. It’s the usual game. It won’t stop Trump from slapping around reporters from this outlet.
President Trump thanks God and the HERO lifeguard Ryder Williams who saved Nathaniel Rai:

.@KristenhCNN is a disgraceful, humiliating embarrassment to her alleged profession.@POTUS hosts a hero lifeguard in the Oval Office and she uses it as an opportunity to take a cheap shot about one of President Trump's staffers.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: Quiet. QUIET! You're very disrespectful in front of this young man. Don't you find her disrespectful? He understands! Quiet. Who are you with?

CNN: I’m with CNN.
TRUMP: Fake News. You’re fake news! You're a loud, boisterous person. You’re fake news! BE QUIET.…
Ossoff, who Trump called Pee-Wee Herman, tried to clean up his remarks last night, but we all knew what he meant.
.@KristenhCNN: Someday, your children will come across your disgusting and inhumane question. They will be sickened and embarrassed to have a parent be so callous and vindictive. It’s quite troubling. https://t.co/EWgPy7mXQP

Natalie Harp is an American success story, both personally and professionally. She survived a usually fatal bone cancer - which she credits to President Trump’s right to try policies - and as a young woman has worked tirelessly at the highest levels in the White House. Cheers to…
