Donald Trump is out here telling everyone that Taylor Swift, pop icon and serial cat lady, has jumped on the Trump Train for the 2024 presidential election. Yep, you read that right. According to the former President (and part-time fiction writer), T-Swift has given him her shiny seal of approval.
In a dramatic weekend Truth Social post that had everyone either laughing or crying (we’re not sure which), Trump, age 78 and still as creative as ever, threw up a bunch of photos that seem to belong in a parallel universe. One was an AI-generated masterpiece showing Taylor Swift decked out as Uncle Sam herself, with the text “Taylor wants you to vote for Donald Trump.” Because nothing says “patriotism” like a pop star dressed up as a 4th of July mascot.
But wait, it gets better! Trump didn’t just stop at one fantasy. Oh no, he went all in, posting images of women proudly sporting “Swifties for Trump” T-shirts. The shirts look about as real as a unicorn at a NASCAR race, but hey, details. Trump, never one to let facts get in the way of a good story, gleefully captioned the post with, “I accept!”—as if anyone was nominating him for the Grammy Awards.
In an even more head-scratching twist, one of the screenshots Trump shared comes from an article that is literally labeled as satire. The headline? “Swifties Turning to Trump After ISIS Foiled Taylor Swift Concert.” Because if there’s one thing that gets Swifties riled up, it’s apparently international terrorism and political endorsements.
In case you’re wondering, Taylor Swift has historically supported Joe Biden, even dropping a protest song, “Only the Young,” during the 2020 election. But hey, why let past realities get in the way of a good fantasy?
As of now, Taylor hasn’t said a word about her AI clone’s new political career. She’s probably too busy figuring out how to shake this off.
