Donald Trump brushes off Taylor Swift’s Kamala Harris endorsement: ‘I like Mrs. Mahomes much better’
Donald Trump said he likes Brittany Mahomes “much better” than Taylor Swift after the pop star endorsed Kamala Harris for president.
During an interview on “Fox & Friends” Wednesday, the former commander-in-chief, 78, shared his thoughts on Swift, 34, announcing she will vote for the vice president, 59, instead of him in November.
“Well, I actually like Mrs. Mahomes much better, if you want to know the truth. She’s a big Trump fan,” he said.
Trump voiced his disdain for Swift just hours after she took to Instagram to share that she was endorsing Harris and running mate Tim Walz in the 2024 presidential election.
“Like many of you, I watched the debate tonight. If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most,” she captioned a pH๏τo of herself holding her cat.
“As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country.”
The Grammy winner then said she would be voting for Harris because she “fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them” and would lead the country with “calm and not chaos.”
“I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades,” Swift shared.
The “Shake It Off” songstress urged her fans to do their own research before they cast their ballot — and make sure they are registered to vote.
She concluded her message by signing off as “Taylor Swift, Childless Cat Lady,” taking a jab at Trump’s running mate JD Vance’s controversial statement about women who do not have kids.
Trump then publicly thanked the “beautiful” Brittany for “strongly defending” him on social media after she was criticized for seemingly supporting his presidential campaign.
Despite their difference in politics, Swift and Brittany are still good friends. This past Sunday, the ladies and their partners attended the US Open and had dinner together.
