Taylor Swift enthusiasts targeted President Donald Trump’s granddaughter, Kai, accusing her of copying the logo of her NFL superstar fiancé, Travis Kelce.
Kai, the offspring of Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump, who is now involved with Tiger Woods, initiated a fashion line featuring her initials.
During her appearance at the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, Kai strolled out wearing a sweatshirt with her interlocking ‘KT’ initials on the front.
Although the designs are undoubtedly trendy, many sharp-eyed fans quickly noticed the logo’s striking resemblance to the NFL player’s sports apparel line, Tru Kolors, in partnership with American Eagle.
‘Hey, Travis … I believe you already have this brand logo?” one user wrote on X.
‘Her logo looks exactly like yours. Get the lawsuit papers coming!! Yes, I’m mad as hell at their corruption and using the presidency and the people’s house to profit on my dime!’
Kai Trump, the granddaughter of Donald Trump, launched a clothing line with a “KT” logo
Online detectives were quick to compare it to the “TK” logo from the clothing collection that Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce introduced with American Eagle in August.
Kelce launched his collection in August, showcasing the line with various sports figures, including gymnast Sunisa Lee, UConn women’s basketball player Azzi Fudd, and Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith.
That line featured multiple items with an interlocking ‘TK’ – including hats, jackets, and sweatshirts.
After Trump released her all-sweatshirt line, complete with a photoshoot on the grounds of The White House, many were quick to point out the similarities and called her out for copying the three-time Super Bowl champion.
‘You may want to think twice, your logo is already trademarked by American Eagle/Travis Kelce. Of course, you’re a Trump so you think you can do whatever you want with no repercussions,’ read one angry reply on X.
Another comment said, ‘Using our White House to promote your new clothing line is not only a bad idea, but you are also copying Travis’s [sic] Kelce’s logo.’
One user said, ‘wait if i’m travis kelce [im] suing why it look exactly like his.’
‘Ripped off the logo too. Like mother like daughter,’ said another comment.
Neither American Eagle or Kelce have publicly addressed the similarity in the designs.

Kai launched her fashion brand over the weekend, one month after Kelce first dropped his line.
The teenager, who has committed to the University of Miami, is selling the monogrammed sweatshirts for $130 each on her website. They are available in white, black and navy.
Seizing the promotional opportunity, the savvy social media star used the White House as the backdrop to shoot her advertising video.
The news of the three-time Super Bowl winner’s collaboration with the clothing brand just one day after he and superstar girlfriend Swift announced their engagement in an adorable Instagram post.
‘Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,’ the couple wrote in the caption, alongside a series of photos of Kelce popping the question in a romantic, floral setting.
The collection launched in two drops — on Aug. 27 and Sept. 24 — and featured more than 90 pieces priced between $14.95 and $179.95.
Pieces included heavyweight, vintage-inspired tees, cricket sweaters, rugby polos and utility cargos, reimagined varsity jackets, soft chenille pieces and cashmere sets and Bespoke Graphics reflective of the world of AE x Tru Kolors by Travis Kelce.
‘I’ve had to keep my excitement about this collab under wraps for nearly a year. It was an awesome opportunity to team up with an established brand where both sides were excited to truly collaborate on every decision in the design and creative process that brought the ‘AE x TK’ collection to life,’ Kelce said in a press release.
He continued, ‘I started Tru Kolors in 2019 on the foundation of showing up authentically and having fun with style, and we wanted this collab to reflect that same energy.’
This comes after Euphoria actress Sydney Sweeney starred in a controversial ad for the same brand.
