Taylor Swift is being showered with love despite Donald Trump’s hate.

The former president lashed out at the pop superstar on his Truth Social over the weekend following her recent endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” Trump wrote in all caps.

Trump’s post comes just days after Swift took to social media to voice her support for the Harris campaign. Swift expressed her admiration for Harris, calling her a “steady-handed, gifted leader” and a “warrior” for causes including LGBTQ+ rights and women’s reproductive freedoms. She also called out Trump posting fake AI images that had falsely suggested she supported him.

“It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation,” she said about the doctored images. “It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth.”

Swift signed her Instagram post as “Childless Cat Lady,” aimed at Trump’s VP candidate JD Vance, who used that description to demean Democratic leaders without children. Swift’s endorsement post of the Democratic candidates brought around 400,000 people to the Vote.gov registration website in the following days.

Following Trump’s message of hate, a number of celebrities and politicians alike took to social media to note how much they “love” Taylor Swift, and #ILoveTaylorSwift was trending on X within hours. Some public figures that came forward in support of the “Cruel Summer” singer include “King Swiftie” Flavor Flav, actor Mark Hamill, author Stephen King, actress Mia Farrow and former Republican House Representative Liz Cheney.

Most surprisingly, Scooter Braun took to his Instagram Stories to clap back at Trump’s message. “Shake it off Donald. Kamala 2024,” he wrote, in reference to Swift’s 1989 hit, “Shake It Off.” Braun has a history of “Bad Blood” with Swift, as he acquired Scott Borchetta’s Big Machine Records Label Group and Swift’s catalog for $300 million in 2019. Braun later sold Swift’s masters in 2020, prompting Swift to begin the process of re-recording her first six Big Machine albums.
