 "Did Kim Kardashian take a dig at U.S. President Donald Trump at Venice Film Festival? 'You hear in the news that...'")
Kim Kardashian on Thursday slammed US President Donald Trump’s immigration policies, specifically the ICE raids that have been making headlines for months. She was in Venice on Thursday night, where she was honoured with Diane von Furstenberg’s DVF Awards.
Kardashian was quoted saying, “You hear in the news that it’s about people who have committed crimes and are trying to help the country.” “But then you hear about all the hardworking people who have built this country, and so many of them are being affected. People I know. People my friends know."
She added, “You want to believe there’s a powerful message in protection, but you see that it’s not really happening like that. It’s really tough. I think we have to do what we can to protect the people who have really supported and built our country.”
Trump has wished the pop star and called her a ’terrific person.’ “Well, I wish them a lot of luck,” the President said. “I think he’s a great player, a great guy. I think she’s a terrific person. So, I wish them a lot of luck.”
He earlier made a controversial remark on Swift and said how he couldn’t stand her.
A friendship bracelet, undelivered
It started, fittingly, with a friendship bracelet.
It was way back in July 2023 that Kelce attended Swift’s Eras concert at Arrowhead Stadium, where the Chiefs play.
After, on his “New Heights” podcast with brother Jason Kelce, he professed to being disappointed — well, his word was “butthurt” — that he couldn’t meet Swift and present her with a bracelet with his phone number on it.
