Trump praises Sydney Sweeney's ad - after hearing she's a Republican
"She's a registered Republican?" Trump said. "Oh, now I love her ad. Is that right? You'd be surprised at how many people are Republicans. That's one I wouldn't have known, but I'm glad you told me that. If Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican, I think her ad is fantastic." More: Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle jeans ad sparks controversy: Here's why Over the weekend, Buzzfeed News first reported Sweeney's party affiliation. A person named Sydney B. Sweeney registered as Republican in Monroe County, Florida in June 2024, according to public voting records. Sweeney's middle name is Bernice. USA TODAY was unable to verify whether it's the same Sweeney. Trump, in an Aug. 4 post on Truth Social, his social media app, heaped additional praise on the actress. "Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!" Trump said. The American Eagle ad campaign featuring the "Euphoria" actress relies on a play on words - "jeans" and "genes"- to describe the 27-year-old Sweeney. The slogan: "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans." In one of several videos for the campaign, Sweeney, clad in a denim-on-denim fit, says: "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color." "My jeans are blue," she continues in the ad, with jeans doing double duty as the camera pans across her true blue denim fit and her blue eyes. Critics have said the jeans campaign amounts to a dog whistle for eugenics and a glorification of whiteness. More: White House calls Sydney Sweeney ad outrage 'cancel culture run amok' White House communications director Steven Cheung last week slammed the negative reaction to Sweeney's ad as "cancel culture run amok." "This warped, moronic and dense liberal thinking is a big reason why Americans voted the way they did in 2024," Chueng wrote on X July 29, in response to an MSNBC op-ed that said it was "fair" to condemn Sweeney's ad. He added that people are "tired of this" and using a profanity. Trump, in his same Aug. 4 social media post, slammed luxury automobile company Jaguar for its "stupid, and seriously WOKE advertisement" that featured men wearing colorful skirts in a new company rebrand. Adrian Mardell, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover, stepped down following criticism of the ad and plummeting car sales. "THAT IS A TOTAL DISASTER!" Trump said of Jaguar. "The CEO just resigned in disgrace, and the company is in absolute turmoil. Who wants to buy a Jaguar after looking at that disgraceful ad." Trump then took a shot at an A-list celebrity: "Woke singer" Taylor Swift - one of the biggest stars in the world - claiming she's "NO LONGER HOT" since he made clear "that I can't stand her (HATE!)." "The tide has seriously turned -- Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be," Trump said. Reach Joey Garrison on X @joeygarrison.

Donald Trump wades into Sydney Sweeney ad debate
Donald Trump has waded into the debate surrounding Sydney Sweeney's jeans ad. The American Eagle ad, which features the 27-year-old actress, who starred in the HBO series Euphoria and White Lotus, has the tagline "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans". It has sparked a debate in the US over race and Western beauty standards. In a since-corrected Truth Social post, the US president initially misspelt Sweeney's first name, saying: "It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying of the shelves.' Go get 'em Sidney." Most of the criticism has centred on videos using the word "genes" instead of "jeans", with one in which Sweeney says: "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair colour, personality and even eye colour. My jeans are blue." Critics argued the play on words potentially promotes eugenics, a discredited theory that believed humanity could be improved through the selective breeding of certain traits. But others have defended the ad, saying the critics are reading too much into its message. The video appeared on American Eagle's Facebook page and other social media channels, but is not part of the ad campaign. In a statement on Instagram on Friday, American Eagle Outfitters said the campaign "is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone." Stocks in American Eagle Outfitters jumped by 23.3% after Mr Trump's intervention. Trump knows all publicity is good publicity US correspondent @marthakelner They say all publicity is good publicity, and Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad is certainly notching up the column inches, especially now Donald Trump has intervened. The US president must have been breathlessly excited when he found out Sweeney was a registered Republican because he wrote a Truth Social post in support of her before deleting it twice and reposting three times to correct various spelling and grammatical errors. He clearly could not wait to get involved in the discourse. "Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the HOTTEST ad out there,' he wrote. "Go get 'em Sydney!" In any other era, the president weighing in so heavily on one side of a pop culture issue would've been unusual. But the current president knows people are talking about the ad around their dinner tables and at parties right now. By injecting himself into the discussion, they will now be talking about him too. In his Truth Social post, which he reposted three times to fix various typos, Mr Trump compared the ad with "woke" ones "on the other side of the ledger" - as he criticised other companies, as well as hitting out at Taylor Swift. "The tide has seriously turned - Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be," he wrote.
