Scooter Braun has drawn the attention of Taylor Swift’s fanbase after seemingly defending the pop star against former president Donald Trump.
On September 15, Trump posted on his Truth Social platform that he "HATES TAYLOR SWIFT!" in response to her support of Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Waltz for the 2024 presidential election.
Braun fired back by sharing a screenshot of Trump’s message on his Instagram Stories, adding, "Shake it off Donald," a reference to Swift’s popular song.
Braun also expressed his political stance, endorsing Kamala Harris for the upcoming election with the message "Kamala 2024." His response to Trump’s attack on Swift comes as a surprise to many, given Braun’s controversial past with Swift over his acquisition of her master recordings.
Fans have taken to social media to question Braun's motives, with some wondering if he’s using Swift’s fame to stay relevant.
Pop Base shared news of Braun’s post on Instagram, which sparked reactions from Swifties. One fan humorously commented, "This is so funny, now he likes Taylor?" while another responded, "We still don't like him. Right??" A third fan confirmed the sentiment, saying, "We still don't like you, Scooter!"
The tension between Braun and Swift has been ongoing, with Swift re-recording her old albums to regain control over her music catalog after Braun’s purchase of her masters. This latest development has only added to the drama surrounding their contentious relationship.
