Donald Trump is trying to brush off the fact that he shared A.I.-generated images of Taylor Swift endorsing his campaign to his Truth Social account earlier this week, now claiming that he doesn’t know “anything about them.”

    This isn’t the first time there was report of Trump using material from someone who got rich in an industry that lords over its supposed “intellectual property rights” and that person either sues Trump or threatens to do so.

    What if Harris wanted to use music from Kid Rock, Ted Nugent, or Kanye ironically?

      He isn’t using her music, though. He’s using her image. I think there is a case here, but it isn’t a copyright case.

        In the US, an image is under copyright unless the owner releases it into the public domain or like; and if you’re referring to trademark, that’s probably worse.
