It's still Taylor Swift against Kanye West

Swift and West both have an equally dedicated fanbase, many of whom took sides in 2009 when West hijacked Swift's microphone at the MTV Video Music Awards.

The ensuing blood flowed in 2016, after a dispute over West's erasing the song lyrics on Swift with the singer.

Fast forward to today. West has become an important supporter of President Donald Trump, often donning a "Make America Great Again" hat and speaking for his "brother", which, according to West, shares his "dragon energy".

"There are so many times that I talk to a white person about it and they say to themselves," How could you like Trump? He is racist, "said West at a recent appearance in" Saturday Night Live. "" If racism had troubled me, I would have left America a long time ago. "

His position provoked outrage among his supporters, but earned West praise from some conservatives.

At the same time, Swift, who has long escaped public political debate, announced Sunday the candidacy of two Democratic candidates in his country, Tennessee.

The singer spoke of her #MeToo experience as one of the reasons she felt compelled to support her candidates by writing "because of a number of events in my life and around the world during last two years. [publicly voicing her political opinions] now."

"I have always voted and will always vote according to the candidate who will defend and defend the human rights we all deserve in this country," wrote Swift in a post posted on Instagram. "I believe in the fight for LGBTQ rights and for the fact that any form of discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender is FALSE."

"I believe that the systemic racism we still see in this country towards people of color is terrifying, disgusting and widespread," she added. "I can not vote for someone who will not want to fight for the dignity of ALL Americans, no matter what color of skin, sex or people they like."

Last year, Swift won a legal battle against a radio host she accused of fumbling at a meeting in 2013.

After his political affiliation, Swift was criticized by some people who were not happy with his position.

"So disappointed that you decided to do politics," tweeted a person. "I thought you were brilliant when you said, I'm not going to tell people who to vote for, but I will encourage them to vote, with all the divisions in this country you were the only place where politics mattered little."

Conservative blogger Wayne Dupree disputed the discussion.

"For the Conservatives to support and push Kanye West, then turn around and attack Taylor Swift for supporting the Democrats, it's really hilarious," he tweeted. "What happened to the conservative movement?" When I came in 2007, there was a mockery of the politics of actors and musicians. "

Writer Kashana Cauley suggested that the current battle between Swift and West had taken the masses by surprise.

"Someone should probably create a support group for those of us who initially picked the wrong side of the debate between Kanye and Taylor Swift," tweeted Cauley.
