Donald Trump Declares ‘I Hate Taylor Swift’ After Pop Star’s Kamala Harris Endorsement

Donald Trump isn’t holding back his feelings about Taylor Swift.

On Sunday (Sept. 15), the former president lashed out against the pop superstar on social media, just days after she officially endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

“I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” Trump wrote in all caps on Truth Social.

Following last week’s first presidential debate between Trump and Harris on ABC News, Swift shared her endorsement for the VP with her 238 million Instagram followers (her account had reached 284 million as of Sept. 15).

“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election,” Swift wrote alongside a photo with her cat Benjamin Button. “I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them.”

The “Anti-Hero” singer also expressed her admiration for Harris, calling the VP a “steady-handed, gifted leader” and a “warrior” for causes she holds dear, such as LGBTQ+ rights and women’s reproductive freedoms.

Swift’s endorsement of the Democratic candidates also called out Trump posting fake AI images that had falsely suggested she supported the MAGA leader.

“It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation,” Swift said about the doctored images Trump put up on his Truth Social feed. “It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth.”

The pop star signed her Instagram post as “Childless Cat Lady,” a zinger aimed at Trump’s VP candidate JD Vance, who once used that description to demean Democratic leaders without children.

Swift’s endorsement brought around 400,000 people to the Vote.gov registration website in the following days.

This isn’t the first time the singer-songwriter has spoken up for Democratic candidates. In 2018, she famously broke her silence around politics to endorse Phil Bredesen in his race against Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn, saying Blackburn’s voting record “appals and terrifies me.” Swift also endorsed President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
