Harris campaign mocks Trump after his ‘I hate Taylor Swift’ post
Vice President Harris’s campaign mocked former President Trump in a release Sunday after he expressed his dislike for pop superstar Taylor Swift on Truth Social.
“We’re pretty sure it’s Safe (& Sound) to say Donald Trump’s week has him Down Bad,” Harris’s campaign said Sunday in a release from spokesperson Sarafina Chitika on the social platform X, referencing multiple Swift songs.
“Mr. Not-at-all Fine has spent this week working through his feelings, whining about his Champagne Problems, and spending exactly none of his time addressing the issues facing the American people,” Harris’s campaign continued. “His rambling, yelling, and constant conspiracy theories have many asking if The Man is ‘too emotional’ to be president.”
The release included a Sunday post from Trump about the “Is It Over Now?” singer in which he said “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” Swift endorsed Vice President Harris earlier this week following a debate between her and Trump, saying on Instagram that she believes the vice president “is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos.”
“Donald Trump’s week of whining and spouting conspiracy theories has voters on both sides of the aisle ready to Forget That He Existed,” Chitika said, again referencing multiple Swift songs. “The American people want to be Out of the Woods of the chaos and division of the Trump era, leave behind the Blank Space of Trump’s broken promises, and Begin Again by electing Vice President Harris to ensure America’s future of opportunity is Long Lived.”
On Wednesday, Trump brushed off Swift’s endorsement of Harris in an interview on “Fox & Friends.”
“I was not a Taylor Swift fan,” Trump said.
“It was just a question of time. She couldn’t possibly endorse Biden. … But she’s a very liberal person,” the former president continued. “She seems to always endorse a Democrat, and she’ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace.”
In an email to The Hill, Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung sent a link to a post on X by the “Trump War Room” account that appeared to reference a recent ABC News/Ipsos poll in which 6 percent of respondents said Swift’s public backing of Harris results in them being “more likely to vote for Harris for president.”
