Per Essentially Sports:
This year, two big things had everyone in America buzzing. One, of course, is the NFL, but that happens every year. The second was the U.S. Presidential Election. Now that’s something people couldn’t stop talking about. Everyone was waiting on the edge of their seats to find out who the 47th president would be. And despite all the drama and controversies swirling around, Donald Trump pulled it off and snagged the win. And guess what? After beating Kamala Harris, Trump managed to surpass pop icon Taylor Swift.
ADVERTISEMENTTo be exact, Trump now has 94,754,047 followers on X, while Taylor Swift has 94,731,484. That’s 22,563 more followers than the “Shake It Off” singer! It’s pretty wild considering Swift’s global fanbase, but Trump has certainly made a splash in the social media world.
Taylor Swift has been a digital queen on X for ages. She’s got that cultural dominance, boosted by her world tours and chart-topping albums. She’s not only followed in America, but has millions of fans worldwide.
On the flip side, Trump has been in the spotlight, especially since his 2015 presidential campaign. He won the 2016 election, becoming the 45th President of the United States. A businessman by trade, he became the first U.S. president with no military or government background. And just when you think he can’t get any more unpredictable, here he is, taking down Swift on X. Adding another chapter to his public shenanigans!
Taylor Swift has never been shy about her dislike for Trump. With their differing ideologies, it’s no surprise they’ve had a pretty tense relationship over the years. The whole feud started back in 2018 when Swift publicly backed Democratic Senate candidate Phil Bredesen over Republican Marsha Blackburn. During this election, Taylor Swift was also pretty vocal about supporting Kamala Harris.

Per MARCA:
Donald Trump officially has more followers than Taylor Swift on X.com, formerly Twitter, as the Republican overtakes the Eras Tour star, who opposed him during the 2024 United States Presidential Election.
The 78-year-old has now reached 94,754,047 followers on the Elon Musk-owned social media platform, which beats the 34-year-old’s 94,731,484 by a narrow 22,563 in what could be a small, but symbolic, victory over another political rival.
