In a bizarre twist, former President Donald Trump claims he narrowly avoided an “assassination attempt” while golfing. The alleged culprit? None other than NFL star Travis Kelce, who was spotted lurking in the bushes. The motive behind this peculiar scene seems to stem from Trump’s recent Truth Social post declaring, “I hate Taylor Swift.”
The Incident: From Golf to Conspiracy
According to Trump’s Truth Social post, the alleged “attempt” occurred while he was playing golf at his Florida course. “I was having the best game, the best! And then I spot someone in the bushes. It was a clear assassination attempt,” Trump wrote.
And who did Trump claim was in the foliage? None other than Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs star and current boyfriend of Taylor Swift. “It’s that football player dating Taylor Swift. I think we all know why he was there,” Trump added.
The Provocation: “I Hate Taylor Swift”
Hours before the incident, Trump posted the now-viral message, “I hate Taylor Swift,” on Truth Social. The post quickly attracted attention, with Swift’s loyal fanbase—Swifties—rushing to her defense. While no one is sure what prompted Trump’s attack on the pop star, the aftermath was immediate. Not long after, reports emerged that Kelce had been seen lurking near the 12th hole where Trump was golfing.
Coincidence? Trump didn’t think so.
Travis Kelce in the Bushes
Eyewitnesses claim to have seen a man, resembling Kelce, hiding behind some bushes on the course. “He was in full camo gear,” one source stated. “It definitely looked like Travis Kelce. What he was doing there, we have no idea.”
Although there’s no evidence of a genuine assassination attempt, the sighting sparked wild theories online. Some speculated Kelce was simply trying to surprise Swift by practicing his golf swing, while others believed he was seeking revenge for Trump’s attack on his girlfriend.
Social Media Erupts: Assassination Attempt or Just Kelce Being Kelce?
Unsurprisingly, social media lit up with reactions to the strange story. “So, let me get this straight. Trump disses Taylor Swift, and now Travis Kelce is trying to assassinate him?!” one Twitter user joked. Another posted, “If Travis Kelce was planning an assassination, would it be with a football or just a very long pass?”
Swifties, of course, had a field day, creating memes of Kelce as a secret agent sent to protect Swift’s honor. Meanwhile, Trump supporters were more perplexed, unsure whether to be concerned about the football star or to laugh off the whole thing.
Trump’s Response: “Kelce Won’t Get Me Next Time”
Trump, however, remained unfazed. In a follow-up post, he claimed he would be prepared in the future. “Kelce won’t get the drop on me again. I’ll be ready next time—maybe with a football helmet,” he quipped.
Despite the absurdity of the situation, the rumor of Kelce plotting an attack has become an instant internet sensation. Memes of Kelce as a spy, complete with football gear, continue to flood social media.
What’s Next for Trump and Kelce?
As the story continues to unfold, many are left wondering: was this just a case of bad timing, or did Kelce really have revenge on his mind? While Trump insists the incident was a clear assassination attempt, Kelce has yet to comment, adding more mystery to the drama.
One thing is for sure—whether Kelce was practicing his swing or plotting a bold defense of Taylor Swift, this story has given the internet the content it never knew it needed.
