‘You Don’t Get Lower Than That!’ Bill O’Reilly Says He’d ‘Vote for Putin Over Ossoff’ After Natalie Harp Dig

Bill O’Reilly claimed he’d vote for Russian President Vladimir Putin over Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) after he mentioned one of President Donald Trump’s closest aides by name.

During a Sunday rally, Ossoff claimed that Trump had no interest in doing his job as president and would rather “travel with Natalie,” a clear reference to Natalie Harp, the executive assistant to the president.

Harp’s close relationship with Trump has been the subject of scrutiny in the past, as it was previously reported that she sent “devotional letters” to Trump and stays in close proximity to him at all hours.

The comments sparked immediate outrage from the MAGA base, with many accusing Ossoff of implying that Harp and Trump were having an affair.

Discussing the matter on Tuesday’s episode of No Spin News, O’Reilly called Ossoff’s comments a “gutter snipe statement” and added:

You don’t get lower than that. This is the lowest you go. This woman is working for her country, whether you like the Trump administration or not. She has no history of doing anything untoward — none. President Trump actually helped her with a health matter, cancer. And this Ossoff brings her in as someone who should be denigrated and laughed at, and implies there’s something going on here, which would be impossible with the Secret Service cadre there is now surrounding a president at all times. It’s impossible. It’s not like JFK, where the Secret Service guys- he said, “Take a hike,” they took a hike. That doesn’t happen anymore.

To further illustrate his disgust, O’Reilly added that he would vote for Putin before ever supporting Ossoff in an election.

“They’re smear merchants,” he continued. “This Ossoff, I would not vote for — I’d vote for Putin over Ossoff. That’s how bad this guy Ossoff is. Believe me, if I were President Trump, I’d be combing everything that Ossoff’s ever done — ever done — for doing this.”
