Donald Trump has posted a series of AI-generated images on his Truth Social account falsely claiming that Taylor Swift has endorsed him for president.
On Sunday night, Trump shared several screenshots of X posts showing women wearing “Swifties for Trump” shirts. Many of the photos appear to have been doctored, and one screenshot is of a satire news article claiming that the cancellation of Swift’s shows in Vienna due to a thwarted terrorist plot led Swifties to turn to Trump. Another screenshot is of Taylor Swift photoshopped as Uncle Sam next to the message: “Taylor wants you to vote for Donald Trump.”
“I accept!” Trump captioned the post.
Representatives for Swift did not immediately respond to Variety‘s request for comment.
The pop star has yet to put her name behind a presidential candidate for the 2024 election, but endorsed Joe Biden in 2020 and took aim at Trump in a tweet that year following his response to the George Floyd protests.
“After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence? ‘When the looting starts the shooting starts’???” Swift wrote. “We will vote you out in November.”
