Rolling Stone • • general
Key Points:
- The White House TikTok account posted a video featuring Donald Trump with Taylor Swift's 2021 song "I Bet You Think About Me," accompanied by a caption referencing the song's lyrics, but the audio was later muted and removed.
- This incident follows a recent event where Swift removed her song "August" from a Team Trump TikTok post, leading to her muting other songs used in past Trump campaign videos.
- The Trump administration has been using social media and popular music, including Swift's songs, to create provocative, rage-bait-style clips that portray the president and his wife positively.
- These videos often leverage internet culture and music to downplay or make light of controversial policies and actions taken during Trump's presidency.
