Taylor Swift's music has been removed from social media videos used by accounts affiliated with President Donald Trump and the White House. A specific instance involved her 2020 Folklore track August, which was featured in a Team Trump TikTok video showing the Trumps watching a fireworks display. The caption read, "Mood because it’s August and Donald Trump is your president."
However, the song was later removed from the post with a message stating, "This sound isn't available." Swift has not publicly commented on the removal. This is not the only Swift song to disappear from Team Trump or White House posts; Father Figure by Taylor Swift's 2025 hit was also taken down. The White House TikTok video featuring The Fate of Ophelia has also been removed.
Trump had previously expressed his dislike for Swift, and tensions between them escalated after she endorsed his opponent, Kamala Harris, in the 2024 presidential election.
