Astrid Lund - Betty MacDonald fan club organizer: "Taylor Swift is the most popular singer in the world. Donald Trump can only dream of this success. I cannot understand how a woman can vote for this macho man with a criminal record. That remains a mystery to me!"------------------------------------------------ Watson Trump's MAGA supporters are completely freaking out after new Taylor Swift post Article by Anna Von Stefenelli • 1 hour • 3 minutes reading time Donald Trump is shooting himself in the foot with his comments on Taylor Swift. The possible Swift factor in the US election has long been talked about. It refers to the influence of star singer Taylor Swift on the presidential election. Because of her enormous popularity, she could influence a decisive number of voters. A survey by the Redfield & Wilton Strategies Institute found that 18 percent of American voters would be more likely to vote for a candidate they preferred. Swift has held back for a long time. Taylor Swift is the most popular singer in the world. But shortly after the TV debate between the two candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, she finally admitted: she wants to vote for the Democrat Harris. Donald Trump: I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT A brave statement against a star who is considered the most successful singer of our time and enjoys enormous popularity. There is a clever way. This post is now facing strong opposition even from his most loyal MAGA supporters. USA: Swift votes for Harris - and MAGA supporters criticize Trump Just three months ago, Trump had expressed a very different opinion of Taylor Swift. At the time, he praised her in strange-sounding comments and said, according to the "New Republic": "I've heard she's very talented. I think she's actually very beautiful - extraordinarily beautiful." These statements were also viewed critically at the time. Trump's sudden change of opinion now offers room for further criticism. He can hardly deny that Swift's political positioning is the trigger. Even on his own platform, Truth Social, the reactions are predominantly negative. And that in a network that consists largely of Trump supporters. In the comments, several users asked the presidential candidate: "Why are you doing this?" One person wrote: "That won't help you much." Some even speculated whether his account had been hacked. Others advised him not to mess with Swift's huge and dedicated fan base. Trump's reaction to Swift's positioning was initially more cautious. He said in an interview with "Fox News": "She always seems to support a Democrat, and she will probably pay a price for that in the market." Trump is cutting his own throat with hatred against Swift Whether Trump actually believed that his angry statements could harm Swift or that he could possibly poach her Republican fans remains questionable. Such a strategy could prove to be a fallacy and even have negative consequences for him. With his latest attack on Swift, Trump could not only alienate some of his supporters, but also attract the wrath of Swift's dedicated fan base. Attempts by Trump's supporters to use AI images to portray Trump as a sympathetic figure for Swift's fans failed. Trump ultimately even distanced himself from these attempts. One thing is clear: this latest verbal outburst is unlikely to help the former US president and his campaign.
