Donald Trump says he hates Taylor Swift after the pop star endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.
‘I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!’ the former president lamented on his social media website Truth Social on Sunday.
It comes just five days after Swift said in a lengthy Instagram post that she would be voting for Harris in November.
She also encouraged her millions of followers to do their research on the election and register to vote with a link she shared of vote.gov on her Instagram story sharing her grid post.

Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris for president and gets in cheeky jab at Trump and Vance
Hundreds of thousands of people – around 337,000 as of earlier this week – clicked on the link from Swift’s story. It represents a very small percentage of her 284 million followers.
More than 11 million people liked the image Swift posted of herself with one of her three cats named after a fictional character, Benjamin Button.
Swift signed her backing of Harris with: ‘Childless Cat Lady’
It is a reference to Trump’s running mate Sen. J.D. Vance, who said in a 2021 interview with Tucker Carlson that the U.S. is being run by Democrats, corporate oligarchs and ‘a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.’
Swift labeled herself a ‘childless cat lady’ with her lengthy Instagram post on Tuesday revealing her vote for 2024 and posting an image of herself with one of her three cats – Benjamin Button
While some say Swift wading into the political waters of this election could be a huge game changer in November, polling numbers show that her endorsement had little to no influence on the state of the race.

A new ABC News/Ipsos poll released Sunday shows that just 6 percent of Americans say the singer-songwriter’s endorsement makes them more likely to vote for Harris.
Meanwhile, 13 percent say it makes them less likely to back the vice president and 81 percent say it makes no difference.
