LAS VEGAS, NEVADA: Ahead of Super Bowl LVIII, Donald Trump took to Truth Social to Travis Kelce by calling him a "liberal" and took credit for his girlfriend, Taylor Swift's success, as per the New York Post.

Bizarre conspiracy theories by the former President's MAGA supporters claimed the couple's romance, which became public in September 2023, was a plot leading to Super Bowl LVIII halftime so that Swift could announce her endorsement for President Joe Biden to 100 million plus viewers.

However, the conspiracy theories are dead as the pop star remained on the stand throughout the game as the Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, February 11, winning their second straight Vince Lombardi Trophy, according to ESPN.

On Truth Social, Trump claimed, "I signed and was responsible for the Music Modernization Act for Taylor Swift and all other Musical Artists." 

Seemingly taking credit for Swift's record-breaking ongoing Eras Tour and resounding success at the Grammys, the ex-POTUS added, "Joe Biden didn't do anything for Taylor, and never will. There's no way she could endorse Crooked Joe Biden, the worst and most corrupt President in the History of our Country, and be disloyal to the man who made her so much money."



 

The Music Modernization Act, enacted during Trump's presidency in 2018, updated copyright laws to provide artists with increased protections amid the rise of digital music distribution.

He further remarked, "Besides that, I like her boyfriend, Travis, even though he may be a Liberal, and probably can't stand me!"

Swift, who backed Biden in 2020, has so far not hinted at a possible endorsement for his reelection bid as the 2024 presidential election is closing into a Biden-Trump rematch.

One wrote, "He’s as obsessed with loyalty as a mob boss," and another remarked, "Taylor made everything she has. Trump inherited everything he has."

A person quipped, "Wonder how long till broke #Trump begs #TaylorSwift for a loan?" while someone else added, "Please have Trump show how he helped anyone other than himself. "

One more wondered, "Republicans have boycotted the NFL for years. Yet they always seem to know exactly what’s going on?"

An individual joked, "He is also the reason for the win of whoever will win the Super Bowl today."
