In his Truth Social post, Donald Trump saved his kinder comments for the male half of the couple he complained about (go figure). “Besides that, I like her boyfriend, Travis, even though he may be Liberal, and probably can’t stand me!” he wrote. But when he referenced Swift, Trump had no such kind words. Instead, he wrote, “There’s no way she could endorse Crooked Joe Biden, the worst and most corrupt President in the History of our Country, and be disloyal to the man who made her so much money.” Some users on X, formerly known as Twitter, noted that Trump’s post reeked of the desperation of a wannabe despot — he doesn’t have that ultimate power yet, so he’s trying to siphon some influence from Swift. “Trump takes credit for Taylor Swift’s success. There has never been a more petty, insecure, small man in the history of American politics. Everywhere he looks he sees himself as a victim,” Ron Filipkowski wrote.
It was also suggested that Trump is unhappy about Swift’s financial success because his bank account is taking a beating — E. Jean Carroll did win a huge sum in her defamation case against him, after all. “Apparently, Donald Trump spent this morning trying to think of people who actually do have $83.3 million,” Mrs. Betty Bowers quipped. If he can’t get a Swift endorsement, perhaps he can get a swift loan instead?
