Former US President, Donald Trump took to social media to express his displeasure with pop star, Taylor Swift, on Sunday, September 15, following reports that her endorsement of his rival, Kamala Harris, had little impact on voters.
He posted; “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT” on his TRUTH social media platform.
Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris immediately following the US presidential debates spurred hundreds of thousands to register to vote at a federal site.
However, the poll, which was unveiled on Sunday morning and was the first major survey to assess Swift’s influence, revealed that 81% of respondents felt the endorsement had no impact on their decision to vote for Harris.
Furthermore, the endorsement failed to significantly sway Harris among the key demographic expected to be influenced: Only 8% of women under 30 reported feeling more inclined to support Harris, while 13% expressed a decreased likelihood of voting for her. The majority, 78%, stated that the endorsement had no bearing on their voting decision.
Only 6% said it made them more likely to vote for Harris, while 13% said it made them less likely to—though ABC News noted that those who responded negatively to the question were “overwhelmingly Trump supporters”
The poll had 3,276 adult respondents, was conducted online from Sept. 11 to 13 and had a margin of error of about two points.
Trump dismissed Swift’s endorsement of Harris shortly after the debate, saying he was not a fan of hers and adding she was a “very liberal person” who “seems to always endorse a Democrat and she’ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace.”
Trump’s VP pick, Vance, also dismissed the endorsement, saying he didn’t think Americans would be influenced by a “billionaire celebrity” who he accused of being “disconnected from the interests and the problems of most Americans.”
