Former President Donald Trump has posted a fake image of pop superstar Taylor Swift on social media asking people to vote for him in the November election.

Republican candidate Trump posted a photo on Truth Social showing Swift dressed in red, white, and blue with a caption reading: "Taylor Swift Wants You To Vote For Donald Trump."

"I accept!" Trump wrote.

Swift has not publicly endorsed a candidate in the 2024 race but has supported Democrats in the past.

The singer backed President Joe Biden and running mate Kamala Harris in 2020. Harris is set to be formally nominated as the 2024 Democratic candidate at the party's national convention in Chicago this week. Swift also criticised Trump in a 2020 documentary.

A spokesperson for Swift did not respond to a request for comment.

Trump also posted photos of young women wearing "Swifties for Trump" shirts, and a satirical article with the headline "Swifties Turning to Trump After ISIS Foiled Taylor Swift Concert." The article was marked "SATIRE" above the headline.

Swift canceled three shows in Vienna this month after authorities said they had foiled a planned attack. Local officials arrested a 19-year-old man who they said was inspired by Islamic State.
