A TikTok video posted by Donald Trump's campaign account, "Team Trump", had its audio removed after using Taylor Swift's song "August". The video, uploaded four days ago, celebrated Trump's presidency and included a caption that read, "I'm sure @Taylor Swift is going to be super excited we used her song! #taylorswift #maga #august."
The caption was seen as taking aim at Swift, who has openly endorsed Trump's political rivals, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, in the past. According to Variety, the audio was removed, and a message from TikTok read, "The copyright owner hasn’t made this sound available in your country."
Swift's fans responded to the video, with some commenting "TAYLOR REMOVING THE AUDIO" and "TAYLOR QUEEN SWIFT", while another posted a laughing gif and wrote, "SHE DELETED THE SONG", as reported by TheWrap.
