'Now I Love Her ad', Trump Praises Actress Sweeney

UNITED STATES, FLORIDA, AUG 4 – Donald Trump praised Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad amid backlash over alleged white supremacy links, noting a 20% sales increase for the brand, and highlighted her Republican voter registration.

  • On Sunday evening, President Donald Trump told reporters he finds Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad `fantastic` after learning she’s a Republican, before boarding Air Force One.
  • Last month, the American Eagle ad campaign faced backlash over its jeans-genes wordplay, amid criticism it promoted eugenics and white supremacy, while Sweeney is a registered Republican in Florida.
  • Amid swirling criticism, American Eagle defended its campaign this Saturday, stating the slogan refers only to jeans and dismissing allegations of eugenics or Nazi themes.
  • Following Trump’s post, American Eagle shares jumped by 20 per cent after he called the ad `HOTTEST` on Truth Social, noting jeans were `flying off the shelves`.
  • Following polarizing comments, the White House highlights a culture war over cancel culture, with Vice President JD Vance urging critics to label supporters as Nazis.
