Pop superstar Taylor Swift endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential candidacy on Tuesday night shortly after the debate she had with former President Donald Trump, calling the Democratic nominee a “steady-handed, gifted leader.”
Trump reacted to this news just as you expected.
Donald Trump called into “Fox & Friends” Wednesday and made it clear that he likes Brittany Mahomes “much better” than Taylor Swift after the pop star endorsed Kamala Harris for president.
“Well, I actually like Mrs. Mahomes much better, if you want to know the truth. She’s a big Trump fan,” he said.
“I was not a Taylor Swift fan. It was just a question of time. She couldn’t — you couldn’t possibly endorse [President] Biden. But she’s a very liberal person. She seems to always endorse a Democrat, and she’ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace,” he added.

This is a very different response from what Donald Trump stated in June when he called Swift “beautiful.”
He still made it clear that she was liberal but again stuck to the topic of her looks.
“I think she’s beautiful — very beautiful! I find her very beautiful. I think she’s liberal. She probably doesn’t like Trump. I hear she’s very talented,” he said. “I think she’s very beautiful, actually — unusually beautiful!”
Swift had previously been rumored to be a secret Republican during the 2016 election cycle, before she publicly endorsed Tennessee Democratic candidates Phil Bredesen for Senate and Jim Cooper for House of Representatives in 2018.
She went on to support Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in 2020, and even took aim at Donald Trump in the wake of the George Floyd protests that same year.
Donald Trump Previously Praised Brittany Mahomes
Taylor Swift is facing fan criticism after she was seen warmly embracing Brittany Mahomes, who hit back at critics for blasting her for being a Trump supporter.
Last week, Donald Trump thanked Mahomes for “defending” him online amid controversy surrounding her apparent support for his 2024 presidential election campaign.
“I want to thank beautiful Brittany Mahomes for so strongly defending me, and the fact that MAGA is the greatest and most powerful Political Movement in the History of our now Failing Country,” Trump posted from his Truth Social account.
“With Crime and Illegal Immigration totally out of control, INFLATION Ravaging all Americans, and a World that is laughing at the stupidity of our hapless’ leaders,’ it is nice to see someone who loves our Country, and wants to save it from DOOM,” he added. “What a great couple – See you both at the Super Bowl!”
Donald Trump’s post came in response to Mahomes sparking outrage for “liking” a post from Trump titled: “The 2024 GOP Platform,” which outlined his priorities for a second-term administration.
Mahomes appeared to remove her likes from the post following the backlash, but then she liked posts promoting “Trump-Vance 2024.”
She also hit out at critics, saying: “I mean honestly, to be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep-rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood.”Swift, who has previously stayed away from vocalizing her political opinions, has publicly backed Kamala Harris for the 2024 presidential election.
