Pop star Taylor Swift requested the removal of another song from a White House TikTok video this week after the account used her 2021 track “I Bet You Think About Me” alongside footage of President Trump, news outlets report.
The Trump team recently posted a video captioned, “We know you think about us,” referencing Ms. Swift’s lyrics. Hours later, the video’s audio was muted and removed, though it remained available in other TikTok clips and as a standalone sound.
Last week, Ms. Swift requested her song “August” be removed from a posted Trump campaign video captioned, “I’m sure Taylor Swift is going to be super excited we used her song.”
Afterward, other songs that had appeared in Team Trump videos posted last fall were also removed.
The Trump administration has repeatedly used popular music in social media videos promoting the president and first lady, including Bad Bunny, who also asked for his music to be removed.
Ms. Swift has not issued a public statement about the posted videos.
