Pop star Taylor Swift has blasted Donald Trump, accusing him of 'stoking the fires of white supremacy'. The singer was reacting to US President's tweet about Minnesota protests following the death of George Floyd.
Trump reportedly called the protesters 'thugs' and suggested they could be shot if the looting continued.

Taking to Twitter, the 30-year-old-singer, expressed her anger and said that Trump would be voted out in the presidential election in November.
Taylor said: "After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence?
