Leading up to the Super Bowl on Sunday, former United States President Donald Trump sent a message to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce on social media where he argued that they should be supporting him. And it led one of his former aids to mock him for the message.
Alyssa Farah Griffin, who was a former White House Director of Strategic Communications under Donald Trump, called out the former president for the “thirstiest tweet” where Trump posted on Truth Social to claim that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce should support him because he signed the Music Modernization Act that he claims “made her so much money.”
Griffin called the message “the saddest thing I’ve seen.”
“Can I mention my one Super Bowl highlight that we didn’t get to? And I hate to interject politics,” Griffin, a co-host on The View, said during Monday’s show, according to Newsweek. “Donald Trump sent out the thirstiest tweet—er, ‘Truth’—of all time, basically saying, ‘Taylor Swift should like me and I think Travis Kelce should, too.’ It was the funniest thing.
“I was losing my mind over it,” She continued. “[Trump] knows how powerful they both are as an entity, and it was just the saddest thing I’ve seen.”
The worst part is, it’s unlikely that it worked – Swift and Kelce are very unlikely to throw their support behind Trump in the election, regardless of this message.
