Trump lashes out: "I hate Taylor Swift"

Trump posts ‘I hate Taylor Swift,’ days after the star’s Harris endorsement

In all caps, the Republican presidential nominee took to Truth Social on Sunday to rage against the singer with 284 million Instagram followers.

Former president Donald Trump took his bitterness over mega-pop star Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris to his social network, declaring in an all-caps tweet on Truth Social on Sunday, “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” The post did not mention Swift’s endorsement following Tuesday’s presidential debate, but Trump’s comment risks angering Swift’s legions of fans.

Within 15 hours of her endorsement of Harris, Swift’s much-anticipated announcement drove about 338,000 visits to Vote.gov, the federal voter registration site the singer linked to on an Instagram Story post. It is unclear how many of her fans registered to vote.

Swift broke her silence on the presidential election minutes after the end of Tuesday’s widely watched debate between Trump and Harris, with Harris the victor in most polls. Swift announced that she planned to vote for the vice president in a lengthy Instagram post signed, “Taylor Swift, Childless Cat Lady,” a reference to past comments by Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance (Ohio), that the country was led by a “bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made.” The comments have reverberated with bipartisan backlash for weeks.
