Donald Trump Supports Sydney Sweeney Amid Jeans Ad Backlash Because She’s ‘Republican’

Donald Trump Supports Sydney Sweeney Amid Jeans Ad Backlash — Because She’s ‘Republican’?

Just when the internet thought the Sydney Sweeney denim ad discourse couldn’t get more chaotic, Donald Trump has entered the chat — and this time, he’s not roasting her.

In a surprising turn, the former president is standing behind the actress, calling the backlash against her American Eagle jeans ad “ridiculous,” and even claiming Sydney is being targeted because she’s one of Hollywood’s rare conservatives.

Yes, you read that right:
Trump is defending Sydney Sweeney because she’s ‘Republican’.

🗣️ Trump’s Statement: “She’s Beautiful, She’s Classy… And She’s on Our Side”

During a recent interview on a conservative radio show, Trump was asked about the viral backlash surrounding Sydney’s moody, whisper-filled jeans ad — which has been both mocked and memed across social media.

Instead of joining the criticism (which many expected), Trump said:

“Sydney Sweeney? I think she’s great. She’s beautiful, she’s classy, she represents American values. And the truth is, Hollywood can’t stand that. They don’t like it when someone on our side gets attention.”

He added:

“They’re trying to cancel her because she won’t play their game. I’ve heard she’s Republican — and I support her 100 percent.”

😳 Wait… Sydney Sweeney Is Republican?

This isn’t the first time Sydney’s political leanings have come under the spotlight.

Back in 2022, Sydney trended for days after photos emerged from her mother’s 60th birthday party, which included guests in MAGA hats and Blue Lives Matter gear. At the time, she claimed the party wasn’t political, but that didn’t stop the internet from labeling her a “quiet conservative.”

Now, with Trump openly claiming her as “one of us,” fans are once again divided — and furious.

💬 Internet Explodes: “She’s a Closet Republican?!”

Twitter, TikTok, and Reddit were instantly flooded with reactions:

  • “No wonder that jeans ad gave conservative energy.”

  • “Sydney Sweeney being MAGA explains so much.”

  • “She’s allowed to have her politics, but don’t act shocked when Gen Z turns on her.”

Others defended her:

  • “Why are we punishing women for not screaming their politics 24/7?”

  • “So what if she’s Republican? She’s an actress, not a senator.”

Still, the damage control is getting harder to manage, especially as more people revisit old clips, interviews, and social media posts — looking for “proof” that Sydney secretly aligns with the right.

🤐 Sydney’s Camp Stays Quiet… Again

So far, no response from Sydney Sweeney or her reps. No denial. No clarification. Just complete silence — a strategy that some call smart, while others see it as telling.

But the longer she stays quiet, the more people are drawing their own conclusions — and in 2025, silence speaks volumes.

👖 So What Now? Is Her Brand in Trouble?

Let’s be clear: Sydney Sweeney is still a massive star. But between:

  • The awkwardly received jeans ad,

  • Doja Cat’s public roast,

  • The Tom Brady/Kim K wedding triangle,

  • And now a Trump endorsement,

Her once squeaky-clean, non-political “cool girl” image is cracking.

“You don’t survive Hollywood by being the pretty girl with right-wing rumors and tractor ads,” one PR insider said.
“Unless you lean into it completely… or pivot fast.”

Final Thoughts: Trump’s Support May Have Done More Harm Than Good

Donald Trump might think he’s helping Sydney by claiming her as a Republican darling. But in a politically charged culture where young audiences dominate the internet, this kind of endorsement could be brand poison.

What started as a cringe denim ad has spiraled into something far bigger:
A full-blown culture war.

And whether or not Sydney Sweeney meant to be in the middle of it,
she is now — thanks to Trump.
