"I actually like Mrs. Mahomes much better," Trump began, referring to Brittany Mahomes, the wife of football star Patrick Mahomes, who plays alongside Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift's partner, on the same football team.
"I was not a Taylor Swift fan. It was only a matter of time; she'll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace."
As mentioned, Swift officially confirmed her support for Harris for U.S. president within half an hour after the debate, in a post she uploaded to her Instagram account.
In a post to her 283 million followers late Tuesday, Swift wrote, "As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can." She continued, "I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 presidential election."
Swift praised Harris's leadership qualities, stating, "I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos."
