Mr. Trump said there was “no way” Taylor Swift would support Mr. Biden’s election, amid speculation that the President’s campaign wanted to enlist the singer’s support.
“I signed and am responsible for the Music Modernization Act for Taylor Swift and all artists working in music. Joe Biden did not do anything for Taylor and never will,” said the former US President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social on February 11.
Mr Trump’s post referred to the 2018 law he signed addressing copyright issues, which was seen as a turning point for the music industry.
“There is no way she could support Crooked Joe Biden, the worst and most corrupt President in the history of our Country, and betray the man who has made her so much money,” Trump added. “Also, I like her boyfriend Travis, even though he may be a liberal and can’t stand me!”

Travis Kelce, American football superstar, is Taylor Swift ‘s boyfriend . At the time they went public with their relationship, some conservative media outlets spread a conspiracy theory that this was an act to help Taylor perform at the championship match between the Super Bowl and Travis. champion and then both supported Mr. Biden’s re-election. They provide no basis for this hypothesis.
A few hours after Mr. Trump ‘s post , Travis’s Kansas City Chiefs team defeated the San Francisco 49ers to win the Super Bowl.
Questions about the singer’s political views were raised last month after The New York Times reported that aides to President Biden were seeking her endorsement ahead of the November presidential election. The campaign has made several proposals to enlist Swift’s voice, including having Biden attend her concerts.
The singer has not endorsed Biden this election, but she did so in 2020. Taylor Swift’s endorsement is expected to have a significant impact on President Biden’s support. A post on Swift’s Instagram last year is believed to have prompted 35,000 new voter registrations among young Americans.
