Donald Trump took great delight in declaring that 'Karma' was the girl supporting the Chiefs.

The president reignited his bitter feud with Taylor Swift after the singer was mercilessly booed at the Super Bowl.

Swift was at the Superdome to watch Travis Kelce's doomed bid for immortality.

The billionaire songstress watched her partner secure a second straight Super Bowl triumph in Las Vegas last year.

However, it wasn't to be again, with Swift's former team, the Philadelphia Eagles securing a dominant 40-22 win over the Chiefs.

And the omens weren't good for Tay-Tay early on, with her first appearance during the game not being the Love Story she was expecting.

As her face appeared on the Jumbotron during the national anthem, a chorus of loud boos rang out at the Caesars Superdome.

Swift looked a bit taken aback by the reaction and fans claim she mouthed: “What the f*** is going on?”

The Pennsylvania native outed herself as an Eagles fan during a show but has since thrown her weight behind the Chiefs for understandable reasons - her boyfriend being the star tight end.

Trump, who was also present for the start of the game before leaving at half-time, was quick to roast his celebrity foe online.

In a post on Truth Social, the 78-year-old wrote: "The only one that had a tougher night than the Kansas City Chiefs was Taylor Swift.

"She got BOOED out of the Stadium. MAGA is very unforgiving!"

Swift simply laughed as fans booed her as they would a pantomime villain

Trump also shared two videos online - one of him receiving huge applause, and the other not so subtly of Swift, who publicly supported his presidential rival Kamala Harris' bid for the White House, being booed.

The pair's history of bad blood escalated last year, with Trump declaring 'I hate Taylor Swift' on social media after she endorsed Harris.

Trump had already enjoyed a historic night by becoming the first sitting US President to attend the game.

However, he reportedly left early at halftime - with Swift's Chiefs down 24-0 at halftime en route to a damaging defeat.

It also signalled the end of Swift's luck of watching boyfriend Kelce and the Chiefs enjoy victory.

Kansas City previously had a 19-3 record with their superstar tight end's girlfriend in attendance.

In games she had attended this season before the Super Bowl, the Chiefs had gone a perfect 9-0 to take their record to 18-3 overall.

Their run includes a brilliant playoff performance last year that culminated with a Super Bowl during Swift's first official year as a Chiefs fan.

Yet it wasn't to be in New Orleans, with star quarterback Patrick Mahomes sacked six times and throwing two interceptions on a chastening night.
