It's not just about the sanctity of copyright law anymore—Japan's foreign ministry is apparently worried that the US government is damaging the brands.

    Taylor? Isn’t she a Democrat who Trump has a beef with?

      I’m pretty sure he’s used her music several times and she’s one of the only musicians who have had that happen that hasn’t said a single word against it.

      Edit my mistake, after months or years of using her music several times and her never saying a word about it at all or making any sort of public response, I guess the fact that her complete failure to do that over and over again made it a public joke on the internet finally shamed her into saying something.

      I apologize to all of the Taylor Swift fans I may have insulted. Clearly she is a saint.

        Doesn’t look like she likes it. 3 audio removed from vids: https://www.nme.com/news/music/taylor-swifts-august-removed-from-donald-trump-tiktok-post-that-joked-she-would-be-super-excited-about-its-use-3961488

        He’s trolling her because she doesn’t like him. Wrong end of stick.

          I’m not going to be clicking those, but I do feel fortunate that nothing inside of me compels me to research how Taylor Swift feels about anything.

            So you’re pretty sure of stuff you’re very wrong about and don’t wanna check your facts. It’s very MAGA for someone so anti-Trump.

              No, I just don’t actually care. It wasn’t some deeply thought out treaty, it was a stupid quip.
