“HEY @realDonaldTrump SO HAPPY IM GLAD TO BE LIVING RENT FREE in your HEAD,” wrote Gaga.
Lady Gaga is hitting back at President Trump after he mocked Joe Biden for bringing out the pop star on the eve of the 2020 presidential election.
Ahead of Gaga’s performance at Biden’s rally in the battleground state of Pennsylvania on Monday, Trump took to Twitter to slam his Democratic opponent, claiming Gaga’s appearance at Biden’s event is “proof” that the former VP would ban fracking. And Gaga wasn’t having it.

“Just learned that Sleepy Joe Biden is campaigning in Pennsylvania with Lady Gaga, a proud member of ‘Artists Against Fracking,'” wrote Trump in a viral tweet. “This is more proof that he would ban Fracking and skyrocket your energy prices…”
Tim Murtaugh, the Director of Communications of Trump’s re-election campaign, also chimed in, sharing a screenshot of a statement regarding Gaga’s performance.
“Nothing exposes Biden’s disdain for the forgotten working men & women of PA like campaigning with anti-fracking activist Lady Gaga,” he tweeted alongside the screenshot. “This desperate effort to drum up enthusiasm is actually a sharp stick in the eye for 600,000 Pennsylvanians who work in the fracking industry.”

In response, Gaga fired back at both Trump and Murtaugh on social media. Reposting a photo of Murtaugh’s statement and tagging Trump, the “Rain on Me” singer wrote, “HEY TIM HEY @realDonaldTrump SO HAPPY IM GLAD TO BE LIVING RENT FREE in your HEAD. #BidenHarris.”
Gaga also added another comment alongside the screenshot, writing, “Heeeey Donald…#WINNING (also, what is a fracking?) keep your jobs PA…We [love] you.”
Although Trump and his campaign have continued to claim Biden would ban fracking if elected, Biden, along with his running mate Sen. Kamala Harris, have stressed that Biden’s administration would not ban all fracking, per FactCheck.org.
Meanwhile, as for Gaga, the singer was reportedly a member of Artists Against Fracking, a group founded by Yoko Ono in 2012, according to The Hill.
Gaga has been vocal about her support for Biden and has encouraged her fans to get out and vote throughout the election.
