Former President Donald Trump has been feeling some bad blood after superstar Taylor Swift gave Vice President Kamala Harris her endorsement last week.

“I hate Taylor Swift!” Mr. Trump wrote in all capital letters in a post on his Truth Social site on Sunday.

The post consisted of just those four words.

Ms. Swift offered up her endorsement to the Democratic nominee after the presidential debate Tuesday night.

“I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos,” she wrote in an Instagram post.

The former president had previously shared photos of “Swifties for Trump” that were created by artificial intelligence. He also posted a caricature of Ms. Swift saying she supported him.

In her endorsement post, the singer said the images “brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for his election as a voter.”

Mr. Trump said of the Harris endorsement in an interview with “Fox & Friends” on Wednesday that Ms. Swift will “pay a price for it in the marketplace.”

He also said he wasn’t a Taylor Swift fan.

The Harris campaign brushed off the Truth Social post in a statement filled with songs by Ms. Swift.

“Donald Trump’s week of whining and spouting conspiracy theories has voters on both sides of the aisle ready to Forget That He Existed. The American people want to be Out of the Woods of the chaos and division of the Trump era, leave behind the Blank Space of Trump’s broken promises, and Begin Again by electing Vice President Harris to ensure America’s future of opportunity is Long Lived,” spokesperson Sarafina Chitika said.
