The White House appeared to troll Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce on Friday by reminding the far-left pop star that Donald Trump is the President of the United States.
Saturday's wedding between Swift and Kelce marked a significant event in the celebrity world, with nearly 1,000 guests expected to attend the ceremony. The White House took a jab at Swift's endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, signing off with a swipe at JD Vance's previous comments about childless women influencing politics.
On Friday, the White House shared an AI-generated image, mocking Swift and Kelce's billboards outside of Madison Square Garden, which read "JUST&T MARRIED." The edited billboards read "TRUMP IS YOUR PRESIDENT," in a clear reference to the current President's stance on Swift's politics.
The White House also appeared to troll Swift with a graphic showing photographs of the President alongside former Presidents George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Ronald Reagan, as well as historic moments throughout America's past. The post was an apparent nod to Swift's "It's Been a Long Time Coming," the official introductory track of her The Eras Tour in 2024.
The White House later shared a video montage, writing, "NEXT ON AMERICA'S ERAS TOUR." The move was seen as a clear jab at Swift's concert tour, which has been a significant event in the music world.
Saturday's wedding ceremony was attended by a number of high-profile guests, including Swift's longtime best friend, Abigail Anderson Berard, and A-listers such as model Karlie Kloss, model Gigi Hadid, and actor Bradley Cooper. The event was also attended by several of Kelce's Chiefs teammates and a number of musicians.
Meanwhile, 10,000 customers in Queens, New York, went without power and air conditioning as temperatures soared above 100 degrees. However, the White House's move was seen as a clear swipe at Swift's privileged status, given the luxurious setting of the wedding and the lack of concern for the power outage in Queens.
The White House's move has sparked a number of reactions on social media, with some praising the President for taking a stand against Swift's politics and others criticizing the move as petty and juvenile.
