Is Donald Trump a Taylor Swift Fan? An Old Video Suggests That’s a ‘Yes’
For some, unearthing old Donald Trump tweets, quotes, and sound bites have become a national pastime. But a video from 2014 is now raising a question: Is Donald Trump a Taylor Swift fan? The answer might be yes.
The interesting, and brief, evidence comes courtesy of first lady Melania Trump, who uploaded the video below to her verified Facebook page on Dec. 21, 2014. The 20-second clip shows her husband driving with their son, Barron, in the passenger seat. It is totally quiet except for one thing — the anthemic pop of Swift’s “Blank Space.”
Swift’s megahit album 1989 had been released two months earlier and was unavoidable on the radio. At the time, Trump had not yet announced his candidacy for president. But he had previously praised Swift on two occasions — via Twitter, of course.

It’s unclear what picture Trump is referring to. But one thing is clear: This isn’t a reciprocated friendship. Swift has never replied to, or mentioned, Trump on Twitter.
