The decades-long feud between Kanye West and Taylor Swift has seen many twists and turns over the years. After the bizarre interruption that Swift suffered from Ye in 2009, the two music moguls made up and fell out multiple times over the years. Now, they have been pitted against each other once again in the most unlikely scenario possible. And the irony is made stronger by the fact that the person who suggested this face-off is none other than Elon Musk’s ex-partner!

According to a post that Grimes shared on X (formerly known as Twitter) earlier today, Taylor Swift would be the perfect candidate to run for the presidency in the USA. What makes this suggestion all the more perplexing is that Elon Musk, who has even called Kanye West an inspiration and favors his endeavors, once supported Ye’s run for the presidency. Now, Grimes has turned the tables on her ex by suggesting that if Swift turned “Republican”, she would be “unbeatable as a candidate.

That is not all. Furthermore, the 35-year-old also feels that the ‘Bad Blood’ singer could essentially “unite the country too! Maybe, the mother of three is simply a Swiftie. It is equally possible she was merely joking and was being sarcastic. This did not stop the shocked X users from ridiculing the statement. However, there were those who felt that there was some truth to her statements.

To those who came across Grimes’ post, the claim for Swift’s presidency mostly sounded outlandish. But back in July, Taylor Swift had actually joined the list of most desired presidents after surpassing even the ‘Graduation’ rapper’s popularity! So, if Kanye West was to really run for the post in 2024, he could have a worthy opponent in the 33-year-old. While some laughed the suggestion away, others couldn’t imagine Swift as a republican.

Then there were those that actually supported this hot take from Grimes.

Meanwhile, some struggled to grasp the bizarre concept. One even called it a “strange” thing to say.
