It’s hard to believe that Donald Trump and Elon Musk don’t have more important things on their plate.
One is running for president again, and the other is busy managing Twitter and advising the very same presidential hopeful.
Yet instead of focusing on those responsibilities, both seem to be directing their attention—and frustration—towards pop sensation Taylor Swift.
Then, earlier this year, he claimed she got ‘booed out of’ a stadium after a Chiefs game. He even took another dig at her during the Super Bowl.
Now, Trump has taken things even further by targeting her looks.
In a post shared on Truth Social on May 16, Trump wrote: “Has anyone noticed that, since I said ‘I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,’ she’s no longer ‘HOT?'”
Another user followed up with an image of Swift performing, altered with a ‘Pepe the Frog’ meme holding a ruler next to her backside.
And who jumped in to react? None other than Elon Musk—also known online as Kekius Maximus—who replied with a laughing emoji.
It didn’t take long for people to call out Musk for reacting to the post, and many were clearly upset by what they saw as inappropriate behavior.
Another chimed in with: “They need to leave her the f**k alone what’s their obsession with her.”
A third person suggested that Trump and Musk seem so focused on Swift because she’s reached billionaire status like them—and that they can’t stand it.
It’s also worth noting that this isn’t the first time Musk has brought Swift into the conversation.
When Trump was running against Kamala Harris in hopes of becoming the 47th President of the United States, Swift made her political stance public and announced who she would be supporting.
She wrote: “It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation. 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.”
At the end of her message, she signed off as ‘childless cat lady’, taking a jab at JD Vance’s earlier remark about top Democrats being a ‘bunch of childless cat ladies’.
But that wasn’t the end of it. Musk kept the conversation going.
After people accused him of making a ‘Nazi salute’ during Trump’s inauguration, he seemed to use it as another chance to drag Swift into the spotlight.
Over on Reddit, someone posted a video clip from the moment in 2014. It shows Swift clearly blowing a kiss to the audience, not doing a salute.
