Donald Trump attacks Vice President Kamala Harris for attending a ‘dance party’ with Beyoncé, months after the singer withdrew her campaign song

While former President Donald J. Trump appears to distrust or dislike any celebrity who undoubtedly supports his Democratic presidential opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, there may be one one who seems to annoy him greater than another: Beyoncé.

Even greater than his endorsement of Taylor Swift, which looked as if it would put him on edge as thousands and thousands of Swifties vowed to follow her example in the polls – which caused him to later tweet, “I hate Taylor Swift” – Trump’s venom for the 32-time Grammy winner ran deep and leaked during his rally in Traverse, Michigan on Friday, October 25.

During his speech, which got here later than planned because he kept his supporters and attendees waiting for three hours, Trump told the crowd that Israel was at war and “Do you already know where she is tonight? She’s partying.

He returned to the topic of partygoers several times, joking just over 50 minutes into his hour and 10-minute speech: “The Middle East is like a tinder box. People are being killed on a scale we have never seen before and it is happening right now. … Nobody is in charge. Joe Biden is sleeping. Kamala is at the dance party with Beyoncé.”

Beyhive immediately engaged the X platform, stinging the 45 where it hurts.

“He’s so jealous because the biggest star he can attract is Kid Rock,” one person said he tweeted.

Another agreed writing“He’s so jealous it’s pathetic.”

Third he said“First it was @taylorswift13, now @Beyonce is always attacking women,” she said

“Drumpf is triggered by everything Kamala does,” another person wrote, addition“Why does he say her name Beyance? He’s so infantile.

The reality is that the vp was not at the event, as Trump consistently claimed during the rally.

Harris was in Houston, Texas, where, like Trump, she hosted a rally where Beyoncé endorsed and introduced her. Just days earlier, Eminem endorsed her and introduced former President Barack Obama.

Unlike other rallies that featured artists like Megan Thee Stallion, hometown hero Beyoncé didn’t.

Trump’s ax to crush Beyoncé runs deep because she has banned him from using her music at rallies and promoting his shows.

In 2016, Beyoncé and Jay-Z openly supported Hillary Clinton, appearing at a Clinton rally in Ohio to advertise unity and increase voter turnout. This endorsement clashed with the Trump campaign’s efforts, especially given Beyoncé’s significant influence with younger and minority voters, The New York Times reported.

In the 2020 election, Beyoncé continued to support Trump’s opposition, supporting the winning ticket of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Over the years, the 43-year-old has used her show to advocate for social justice and police reform, topics that contrast with Trump’s campaign stances.

But her political ideologies aren’t the only thing that got under Trump’s skin.

In August 2024, the Trump campaign also faced backlash for allegedly using her 2016 hit “Freedom” without permission in a 13-second campaign video, resulting in Beyoncé’s label and publisher threatening to issue a cease-and-desist , which highlighted her reluctance to even have her music associated with his political message, According to to Rolling Stone.

“Freedom” was Harris’ unofficial anthem, and she or he even began singing it at a rally in Houston after her introduction.

The Oscar-nominated singer is not the only star who has blocked the reality star-turned-politician from using her work. Similarly, Eminem, the estate of Isaac Hayes, Earth, Wind and Fire, Eddy Grant, Elton John, The O’Jays, Bruce Springsteen, Celine Dion, Mick Jagger, Lorde, Sia, Blondie, Sheryl Crow, Green Day, Lionel Richie, Adele, Aerosmith, Pharrell Williams, Prince’s estate, Phil Collins and the list goes on.

This ongoing conflict between Trump’s and Beyoncé’s campaigns highlights each her cultural influence and the constant clash of their political ideologies.
