"Trump supporter"- Fans Are Convinced Kim Kardashian’s Silence on the Election Results Is Tied to Her Bond With Donald Trump’s Daughter
The US election results are finally in. While there is plenty of celebration, there is also a fair share of disappointment among the American public. After the presidential election, many celebrities stepped forward to share their thoughts. However, one influential figure who stayed quiet throughout the election season was Kim Kardashian. The businesswoman and entertainer chose not to endorse either of the presidential candidates. But she might have dropped a hint in her Instagram story that gave away a little more than it probably should have.
Ahead of the election, Kim Kardashian shared a picture of herself snuggled up with Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump’s daughter, to wish her a happy birthday. The 44-year-old captioned it, “No one sweeter than you @ivankatrump”. She followed that up with more cozy photos of the two of them. Needless to say, it did not sit well with fans, even though that was not the first time Kardashian showed her love for Ivanka Trump. And following the election results, Kardashian’s stories with the daughter of the re-elected president have once again resurfaced.

Kim Kardashian and Donald Trump have known each other for years. And they grew even close after Kardashian got married to Ye, aka Kanye West. However, Trump’s relationship with both Kardashian and her ex-husband was a bit of a mixed bag- part love, part tension. Still, Kardashian’s long-standing friendship with Trump’s daughter has led fans to believe they know where the SKIMS mogul’s support might lie.
Fans have taken to X to call out Kim Kardashian over her alleged support for Donald Trump.
Fans suspect Kim Kardashian is quietly backing Donald Trump
After Kim Kardashian’s stories, many felt her decision to showcase Donald Trump’s daughter to her multi-million followers just days before the election was a calculated and political move. Some even speculated that the reason the fashion mogul has kept quiet during and after the election is that she does not want to upset the other side, keeping her Trump endorsement under wraps. Saint West's controversial post for Kamala Harris on YouTube might have further added to this speculation. Fans have now dubbed Kardashian a "Trump supporter".
For some fans, however, it was quite obvious for Kim Kardashian to support Donald Trump, despite the fact that she is socially liberal.

Kim Kardashian believes in the rights that Democrats want, as she herself told the New York Times back in 2021. However, she prefers not to call herself a Democrat or a Republican. Speaking of her friendship with Ivanka Trump, it goes back at least to 2014. Not only are they close, but their business ties run deep too- Ivanka Trump’s brother-in-law is an investor in SKIMS. So, it might not be necessary for the billionaire to support Donald Trump just because she shares a friendly connection with his daughter.
Even though our research did not find any supportive reactions for Kim Kardashian in light of the recent accusations, we acknowledge that she has every right to refrain from associating herself with any political labels or parties and choose not to speak.
