Swifties Are Being Criticized For Trump, Bullied By Left-Wing Fans Who Say The Singer Would ‘Hate’ Them

There’s some bad blood leading up to this election.

Taylor Swift fans who are voting for Trump are being slammed by her left-wing admirers, who say the singer would “hate” them for her political choices.

Jenna Piwowarski, the college student who wore a Swifties for Trump T-shirt in Trump’s Truth social post, said she was criticized after posting a TikTok video about the Swifties for Trump movement, which she is now the face of.

“I got literally thousands of comments saying Taylor would hate me, telling me I’m disloyal, I’m a traitor,” she told the Post.

“But I also got some backlash from conservatives. Because they know Taylor Swift is liberal and a lot of them don’t like the message she gives to young girls.”

Piwowarski, 19, whose TikTok posts have been viewed 216,000 times, said the Swifties for Trump movement gained momentum after Trump’s post, which received some 10,100 likes from his 7.63 million followers.

“They posted two pictures of me wearing my Swifties for Trump shirt,” said the political science major at Concordia University in Mequon, Wisconsin. “My picture ended up getting very popular, and the movement became an issue about two weeks ago.

“People come up to me … people call me, DM me, tell me, ‘Listen, I love Taylor Swift. I was scared to admit that I might be interested in Republicanism, but you’ve encouraged me to dig deeper into that and I’m going to vote for Trump.’

Piwowarski revealed that she was contacted by the creator of the Swifties for Trump X account, who “asked me if I could be the face of this movement, since her job doesn’t allow her to participate.”

The creator of the Swifties For Trump X account, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said she has received a lot of criticism on the social media handle, which she created in July and now has 18,800 followers.

“They’re not very constructive, to be honest. Most people just tell us that Taylor will hate us or that we shouldn’t call ourselves Swifties if we support Trump. We’re also accused of being bots or buying followers. I assure you both of these accusations are not true,” she said.

“We’ve been jokingly accused of being @catturd2 [Right-wing X personality Phillip Buchanan] Or Barron Trump Secret. Those were my personal favorites.

Alexis Winters, of Whitestone, Queens, said she has seen Trump supporters lambasted by Trump opponents in Swifty social media groups, who launch scathing attacks and widespread scrutiny.

“It’s crazy,” said Winters, 24. “They’ll be raving about it and posting whole Twitter threads, like, ‘This person supports Trump because they liked this post about this in 2016.’”

Springfield, MO resident Ashley DiFonzo also faces judgment from liberal fans.

“People said to me, ‘Oh, you’re voting for Trump, how can you be a Swiftie?’” DiFonzo, 27, said.

“I think it’s ridiculous to say that just because you’re a fan of Blank, you can’t vote for Blank. I don’t understand that logic.”

Swiftie Melissa Dudley, who lives in Hinesville, Georgia, has two daughters, “one, like me, is a Republican, and one, a very liberal Democrat.”

“My daughter, who is a Swiftie and a Democrat, says she would not be happy if Taylor knew her fans were voting for Trump,” said Dudley, 49. “She believes Taylor is so passionate about her political stance that she thinks her fans should vote Democratic.”

Swift, who has not endorsed any presidential candidate this year, lent her liberal voice to the 2020 election when she spoke out against Trump on X, saying, “After fanning the flames of white supremacy and racism throughout your presidency, you have the courage to pretend moral superiority before threatening violence?”

DiFonzo said he was disappointed by Swift’s anti-Trump posts.

“I think this is spreading misinformation,” he said.

Months later, Swift revealed on Instagram that she would be voting for Biden.

“Honestly, I’m not surprised, a lot of celebrities live in their own little world. They’re not like the rest of us who have to worry about whether or not we’ll be able to afford rent, groceries or gas, and how that will affect who’s president,” DiFonzo said.

Winters said she “began to feel more alienated from” Swift’s political posts ahead of the 2020 election.

“Obviously, I’m still a huge fan of his… but I don’t idolise him in the same way I did before,” she said.

“And it’s not even because she’s a left-winger – I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion – it’s because she feels it’s her duty to preach this to her young fans.”
