Taylor Swift hosted fans for a secret Lover listening session in Nashville yesterday, and while the singer asked fans not to leak album details from the event, they did say a little about what Swift spoke about between songs. According to one fan's Tumblr, Swift candidly shared what she thinks of the state of U.S. politics under President Donald Trump's administration.

"I was like the world is on fire, and she's like yeah, we're living in a hellscape," the fan, Kristin wrote on Tumblr. Kristin told another fan that she spoke to Swift about "overall stuff and the political environment of the U.S. and also just the world in general and like yeah, we were every much on the same page." Swift did not go all out and outright bash Trump, according to Kristin, but Swift made it clear that she was not a fan of the way things are today.

Swift has only recently become publicly political. Last week, she encouraged her fans to watch the Democratic Primary Debates:

And in June, she started a petition to help garner Senate support for the Equality Act.

"While there’s no information yet as to when the Equality Act will go before the Senate for a vote, we do know this: Politicians need votes to stay in office," Swift wrote. "Votes come from the people. Pressure from massive amounts of people is a major way to push politicians towards positive change. That’s why I’ve created a petition at change.org to urge the Senate to support the Equality Act. Our country’s lack of protection for its own citizens ensures that LGBTQ people must live in fear that their lives could be turned upside down by an employer or landlord who is homophobic or transphobic. The fact that, legally, some people are completely at the mercy of the hatred and bigotry of others is disgusting and unacceptable."
