Taylor Swift's endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris for president in her election campaign against former President Donald Trump caused a stir on social media.
This also led to posts targeting Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, in the minutes and hours after Swift made the Instagram post.

Columnist Jemele Hill, a former ESPN personality, mocked Mahomes for it. Hill posted a meme from the children's cartoon show “Arthur.” The meme showed the character Arthur Read with a clenched fist.
Mahomes was caught up in a social media controversy involving Trump. He reportedly “liked” a post last month about the Republican platform for 2024. From there, the controversy grew bigger and bigger as he received massive backlash for it, but he refused to back down.

Their social media activity led many to speculate that there was a rift between Mahomes and Swift, who are regularly seen supporting their significant others at Chiefs games. Last Thursday night, the two did not sit in the same suite, adding to the rumors.
All that was forgotten Sunday when Swift and Mahomes shared a box at the U.S. Open and hugged.
As for Trump, he didn't seem surprised by Swift's support when he appeared on “Fox & Friends” Wednesday morning.
