“But Trump loves adulation, and he likely wanted Swift’s endorsement—badly enough to claim her support even when she hadn’t given it: In August, Trump shared a collection of images that included a picture of Swift dressed as Uncle Sam. ‘Taylor wants you to vote for Donald Trump,’ the caption read.”
I don’t think Trump posted this and, as is usual, he believed the AI images to be real—he fell victim to the echo chamber he created.
He felt betrayed by reality.

He hates Taylor Swift NOT because she is voting for Harris, but because she won’t toe the line for Trump. That rather than follow the AI meme, she speaks her mind: that she is independent and not within his control.
Trump hates that about women. He hates that they have independent thought.
But, worse, he hates women that are smarter than him.
This is why he hates Harris. This is why he hates Swift. He knows he lost the debate.
But maybe if he yells loud enough people will believe him.
