Donald Trump’s decision on Sunday morning to announce to the world in all-caps on his Truth Social platform, “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT” stunned both his critics and some of his supporters, with some of his MAGA fans lamenting his antagonizing her millions of avid fans.The Trump post, which came in the middle of him lashing out at wealthy Kamala Harris donors as “stupid” and then attacking the New York Times, obviously set off an avalanche of social media commentary.
According to Lawfare senior editor Anna Bower, “Going after Taylor Swift is a genuinely bad campaign strategy. Taylor doesn’t get mad, she gets even,” before citing a Swift song with the line, “I don’t start sh-t, but I can tell you how it ends.

Leightner asked, “I wonder if his account got hacked,” to which another commenter added, “That’s what I was wondering.”Leightner later added, “The less he talks about someone, the less the news reports about them. He’s actually calling attention to her and giving her more press. Im disappointed President Trump even said this. It makes him look like he’s 13 – and I Iove the man! Trump 2024!”
