The incident was portrayed as “light-hearted” by Craig Meier, the event spokesman, despite the fact that it probably horrified several Swifties who were watching.
It was a lighthearted and humorous thing. Meier said, “I realize that would have seemed malevolent, but everyone was laughing.
“There were people there, at the time, who joked around that he’s mad because he doesn’t know how to play the guitar.”
According to the auctioneer, it was blatantly political. He continued: “Taylor Swift, it became a political thing, and that was kind of the gist of it,
just a light-hearted bit of a dig at Taylor for coming out politically and entertainers using their influence to influence politics.”
