Trump Vs Taylor Swift: With his staff threatening to wage a “holy war” against Taylor Swift, Donald Trump feels that it won’t matter if the megastar endorses Joe Biden because he is “more popular” than the pop sensation.
Because their team was eager for the singer to join the president on stage at a rally after previously endorsing the Democrat in 2020, the former president attempted to downplay suggestions that she was leaning towards supporting Biden.
