Days after Donald Trump shared AI-generated images of Taylor Swift and her fans supporting him, the former president is claiming he doesn’t know “anything about” the images.
When Fox Business asked him whether he was worried that Swift would sue him, Trump responded: “I don’t know anything about them other than somebody else generated them. I didn’t generate them.”
Some of the images that Trump posted on Truth Social depicted women wearing t-shirts that said “Swifties for Trump,” and another showed Swift as Uncle Sam with the words “Taylor wants you to vote for Donald Trump.”
“I accept!” Trump wrote.
To be fair, two of the images were real, but the others were not. One of the images said “satire” on it in red.
In the interview, Trump maintained his innocence. “These were all made up by other people. AI is always very dangerous in that way,” he said.
“It’s happening with me too. They’re having me speak. I speak perfectly, absolutely perfectly on AI, and I’m like endorsing other products and things. It’s a little bit dangerous out there,” he added.
Although she has not commented on the 2024 race, Swift endorsed President Joe Biden in 2020. “Gonna be watching and supporting @KamalaHarris by yelling at the tv a lot,” she posted on X the night of the VP debate.
Trump seems to be fixated on Swift. In January, Rolling Stone reported that Trump allies had declared a “holy war” against the pop star, and that Trump was privately saying he was “more popular” than her.
In June, Trump reportedly spent a good chunk of time in a meeting on Capitol Hill complaining about the singer. “Why would she endorse this dope,” Trump said, referring to Biden, according to CNN. “He doesn’t know how to get off a stage.”
Trump has also said of Swift: “I think she’s beautiful — very beautiful! I find her very beautiful. I think she’s liberal. She probably doesn’t like Trump. I hear she’s very talented,” he said. “I think she’s very beautiful, actually — unusually beautiful!”
In 2020, Swift made a post on X directed at Trump: “After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence?”
