Taylor Swift fans convinced her friendship with Brittany Mahomes is doomed after NFL WAG likes Trump post
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Brittany Mahomes, wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, recently found herself at the center of a social media storm after liking a post by former president Donald Trump on Instagram.
The seemingly innocuous action has ignited a wave of speculation among fans, with many questioning whether this could spell the end of her budding friendship with pop icon Taylor Swift.
Brittany Mahomes liking Donald Trump's post sparks fear of rift with Taylor Swift
Over the past year, Brittany Mahomes and Taylor Swift have become notably close, often seen together during NFL games as Swift dates Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. However, with Swift’s well-known liberal views and public condemnation of Trump in 2020—when she accused him of "stoking white supremacy"—fans are now wondering if the friendship can survive this political clash.
Taylor Swift has not yet declared her support for any presidential candidate in the 2024 race. However, recently Trump shared AI-generated images of Taylor Swift and her fans supporting him. After facing severe backlash for falsely claiming Swift's endorsement, the former president said he doesn’t know “anything about” the images.
Social media erupted with opinions, with one user on X (formerly Twitter) stating, "Well it looks like Brittany can forget posting up with Taylor Swift in the skyboxes from now on. Could seriously strain their TikTok relationship."

Someone just signed her pink slip out of Taylor's Girl Squad! She turned a whisper about her "FRIIIIIED CHICKEN!!" response into a shout!👀😵💫https://t.co/dIGdkVvwwV https://t.co/zcDrjT0XAG pic.twitter.com/2NagW8w99M
The users did not hold back their views. One commented, "As I said before: this is important because Swifties are the ones giving her likes, views, and clicks. Brittany benefits a lot from her friendship with Taylor. This has a lot to do with Swifties who need to distance themselves from Brittany."
Another quipped, "Brittany just lost her box privileges with Taylor swift and her devil worshiper squad."

Brittany Mahomes fires back at trolls over backlash after liking Donald Trump's post
Brittany Mahomes faced backlash online after liking a post by former president Donald Trump. The backlash prompted Brittany to address the situation head-on.
The incident began when eagle-eyed Instagram users noticed Brittany liking a Trump post that outlined 16 of his policies, which covered various topics from immigration to the economy. The post quickly drew attention, especially from those critical of Trump’s political stance, leading to a wave of liberal outrage online.
In response to the criticism, Brittany took to her Instagram Story, where she addressed her detractors directly.
“I mean honestly, to be a hater as an adult you have to have some deep-rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood,” she wrote. Brittany further expressed her disbelief at the negativity, adding, “There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.”
Brittany’s reaction comes amid a broader context of NFL personalities engaging with Trump, including recent sightings of the former president with Raiders players and past controversies involving NFL stars like Joe Burrow and Nick Bosa.
