Taylor Swift has reportedly had even more of her music removed from TikTok videos posted by President Donald Trump’s social media team this week.

On Wednesday, the 36-year-old singer’s 2021 hit Bet You Think About Me was used in a TikTok featuring a video montage of Trump addressing his supporters.

The post, which was shared to the official White House account, made further reference to Swift’s lyrics in the caption, which read: ‘We know you think about us.’

But just hours later, fans noticed that Swift’s song had been removed from the White House’s video and replaced with muted audio.

The post now also has an onscreen caption that reads: ‘This sound isn’t available.’

Rolling Stone also reported on Wednesday that Swift’s music has disappeared from TikTok videos posted by the White House last fall. 

Taylor Swift has reportedly had even more of her music removed from TikTok videos posted by President Donald Trump’s social media team this week; seen in March

The Daily Mail has reached out to a representative for Swift and the White House for comment but has not yet received a response. 

It comes just days after Swift allegedly disabled a different Team Trump video on TikTok featuring her 2020 song August.

The trolling White House clip that was posted four days ago showed the backs of Trump, 80, who said he ‘hates’ Swift, and First Lady Melania Trump, 56, as they watched fireworks light up the night sky.

The text appearing on the image read: ‘Mood because it’s August and Donald Trump is your president.’

Swift’s song August initially played on the soundtrack, and at the bottom of the post was a message from Team Trump saying: ‘I’m sure @Taylor Swift is going to be super excited we used her song!’ along with the hashtags #taylorswift #maga #august.

By Friday night, the audio was gone and replaced with a message that said: ‘The copyright owner hasn’t made this sound available in your country.’

The song August is from the singer–songwriter’s 2020 Folklore album.

It’s a bittersweet track about a delicate and fleeting summer romance told from the perspective of a fictional teenage girl named Augustine. 

Swift’s fans rejoiced in the comments with one writing: ‘TAYLOR REMOVING THE AUDIO QUEEEEEEN.’ Another echoed: ‘TAYLOR QUEEN SWIFT.’

A third applauded the singer’s actions by saying: ‘TAYLOR REMOVED THE SOUND HAHAHA,’ and a fourth chimed in: ‘She removed it, clocked you guys.’

And yet another Swiftie couldn’t resist teasing: ‘Hahahahaha you messed with the wrong successful woman,’ followed by the taunting words of another fan: ‘I hope taylor swift sues you and wins.’

Trump’s TikTok team responded to the removal by posting another video using Swift’s song Red from her 2012 album of the same name.

It was accompanied by a mock-up photo of the album cover but instead of a close-up portrait of Swift wearing her signature red lipstick was a picture of Trump wearing his signature red MAGA cap and a faux ‘Red (Donald Trump’s Version)’ playlist.

‘Did you know Taylor Swift wrote a whole album about the color of the Republican Party,’ read the needling message.

By Saturday midday, the Red audio track had also been removed from Team Trump’s TikTok by either Swift or someone in her camp.

Swift now owns the copyright of all her songs and recordings, including August and Red. 

She officially regained ownership of her original master recordings in May 2025 after a six-year battle.
