Travis kelce is privately fuming over donald trump’s latest post
Travis Kelce, boyfriend of pop icon Taylor Swift, is “livid” following Donald Trump’s offensive comments posted on Truth Social Friday.
“Has anyone noticed that, since I said ‘I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,’ she’s no longer ‘HOT?’” Trump wrote on May 16.
According to a Daily Mail source, Kelce is deeply upset but cannot speak publicly without fueling further controversy around the issue.
The insideerrevealed: “Travis is livid that the President of the United States is talking negatively about Taylor. He is so mad that he is going to use it as motivation during training for the season ahead, especially if Trump continues talking.”
Moreover, the source also mentioned, “Since Travis can’t say anything publicly because that would just open another can of worms, he has to figure out ways to get it out of his system because he would love to protect Taylor and stick up for her. But keeping quiet is the move he has to do right now.”
Donald Trump has repeatedly mocked Taylor Swift’s politics and image
Trump’s disdain for Swift appears tied to her political support for Democrats, especially her endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris.
Back in February 2025, Trump trolled Swift after she was booed at the Super Bowl, posting videos comparing their crowd reactions.
Trump reposted a video captioned, “Trump gets massive cheers… Taylor Swift gets booed,” boasting about the moment on social media.
Earlier, before the Super Bowl, Trump attacked Swift again, suggesting she owed her success to him, not Joe Biden.
“She’d be disloyal to the man who made her so much money,” Trump wrote in February 2024.
In contrast, Trump has praised Brittany Mahomes—wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes—who supported him during the 2024 election campaign.
Musicians and fans defend Taylor Swift after Trump’s attacks
Tino Gagliardi, president of the American Federation of Musicians, defended Swift and Bruce Springsteen in a strong public statement Friday.
“Springsteen and Swift are brilliant musicians and role models. Their music is impactful and culturally meaningful,” Gagliardi said.
He emphasized that artists have the right to freedom of expression.
Additionally, he condemned Trump’s repeated verbal attacks on outspoken musicians. Swift’s Eras Tour was highlighted as a symbol of cultural resilience. Springsteen’s Born in the USA also represented artistic freedom.
Trump’s stance on Swift shifted from admiration to hostility
In June 2024, Trump gave mixed praise in an interview, saying, “She’s beautiful. Very beautiful. But I hear she’s very liberal.”
He once admired Swift. That changed after she began publicly criticizing his presidency.
Their feud intensified in 2020 when Swift accused Trump of stoking racial violence and vowed to help unseat him in elections.
Since then, Trump has attacked Swift regularly, focusing on her popularity, political endorsements, and public appearances to stir his base.
