The View’s Alyssa Farah Griffin has declared Taylor Swift the ‘only person’ who can ‘defeat’ Donald Trump, as she took a subtle swipe at her former boss.

Alyssa, 34, served as the White House Director of Strategic Communications and Assistant in 2020 during Trump’s presidency – but no longer supports the businessman and recently confirmed she would never vote for him.

Speaking on the latest episode of The View: Behind The Table podcast, Alyssa said Taylor, 33, needs ‘to get in the race’ for President.

She was discussing Taylor’s alleged romance with football player Travis Kelce when she made the joke about the Bad Blood hitmaker.

‘This ends in one way, we are all Taylor Swift fans and to be honest, if Donald Trump looks like he’s gonna win, she’s just gonna need to get in the race and defeat him once and for all, because she’s probably the only person who can!’ she laughed.

Taylor cheered on Travis with her celebrity pals in New Jersey on Sunday night 

The pop superstar is no stranger when it comes to wielding her influence. Last month she successfully encouraged thousands to register to vote on National Registration Day after urging her 272 million Instagram followers.

According to the non-profit, non-partisan Vote.org, her plea helped register more than 35,000 first-time voters on the site.

Her blossoming romance with Travis has been a hot topic of conversation on The View – but Whoopi Goldberg and Sara Haines have made it pretty clear that they’re not interested.

‘I had to hold back how excited I was about this topic to not off put other people at the table,’ Alyssa said. ‘I love it!

‘Taylor Swift is like… this is what I like about it: It may be a fling, it may be any sort of thing, but she’s always dated actors or musicians who kind of fit the same bill, so dating a pro athlete is totally different and I think because she’s not always had success in love, going for something outside of the box makes sense.’

She added: ‘I’m here for it! If it’s a way to incorporate people – who maybe don’t follow sports – into the game, I think that’s good for everyone. Taylor deserves love and I love when she gets her girl entourage together.’

Her comments were in stark contrast to Whoopi, who admitted during Monday’s show that she ‘doesn’t care’ about the supposed couple and will continue watching football whether Taylor is ‘participating or not’. 

There’s been plenty of fanfare surrounding Taylor’s appearance at Sunday night’s game, where she watched Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis play from a star-studded suite alongside her celebrity pals – Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner and Hugh Jackman – as his team took on the Jets.

However, Whoopi said she didn’t understand why it was such a big deal and asked the panel: ‘Why is this so extraordinary?’ as she purposefully mispronounced Travis’s last name.

Fellow panelists Alyssa, Ana Navarro, Sunny Hostin, and Sara Haines had a lot to say on the subject – as the latter claimed that Taylor’s latest romance is one big ‘publicity stunt.’

Speaking on an episode of The View: Behind the Table podcast last week, Sara did not hold back and claimed she ‘doesn’t care’ who Taylor dates – and also took an obvious swipe at her ‘expensive concert tickets’. 

The mother-of-three explained that usually she can ‘talk about any topic’ on the ABC program but said she won’t participate when she simply does not care.

Referring to Taylor and Travis, she told Brian: ‘This is a PR stunt, this whole thing, and I’m just not that interested in it because it just feels like you’re giving air to a publicity stunt and she does not need more expensive concert tickets that are hard to get, like she’s good, like we’re good!’
