Trump's past jabs at Swift
Trump's criticism of Swift goes back two years, when he slammed her for endorsing former US Vice President Kamala Harris in the presidential election. He had written on Truth Social: "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!" without providing any further explanation. Just a day before the wedding, the White House also shared an image featuring Trump alongside several former US presidents with the words "America's Eras Tour."
