A fan group of Taylor Swift supporters raised more than $40,000 for Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign following a controversial post from former President Donald Trump. The group, “Swifties for Kamala,” launched a fundraising drive in response to Trump’s post on Truth Social, where he declared, “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” on Sunday morning.

Trump’s criticism of the pop star gave the fan-driven organization an opportunity to boost Harris’ campaign ahead of the November 2024 presidential election. Carly Long, a spokesperson for Swifties for Kamala, said the group quickly mobilized after seeing Trump’s post, using memes and Swift-themed messages to capture attention and drive donations.
“As soon as we saw the post, we knew this was an opportunity. Our team was ready with lyric response ideas and ways to tie in our calls to donate and volunteer,” Long said in a statement. The group incorporated Swift’s iconic lyrics, such as “haters gonna hate,” to rally Swift fans into political action. “We use the memes to catch people’s attention, and then tell them how to turn that emotion into action,” Long added.
Their strategy combines the pop star’s widespread appeal with calls for political engagement, aiming to mobilize Swift’s fan base in support of Harris’ presidential campaign.
This surge of Swiftie-driven political activism is unfolding against the backdrop of the 2024 US presidential election, where Kamala Harris is preparing for a challenging race. Expected to face Donald Trump in a high-stakes contest, Harris has been focusing her campaign on galvanizing younger voters, women, and minorities. Her team is capitalizing on Trump’s divisive rhetoric, with groups like Swifties for Kamala proving to be unexpected allies.
As the 2024 election approaches, fan-led initiatives such as these highlight the increasingly creative and diverse ways supporters are participating in the political process. With Swifties now stepping into the political arena, both campaigns are likely to keep a close eye on their influence.
