“Taylor Swift has chosen to align herself with a political figure and, in doing so, has alienated a large portion of the country music community,” the statement read. “While we respect her right to express her views, we believe that country music should remain a space for entertainment, not political discourse. As such, we have made the difficult decision to revoke her CMA awards.”

The statement concluded with a thinly veiled jab at Swift’s foray into politics: “Taylor Swift was once a shining star in country music. We only wish she had stayed true to her roots and avoided the divisive nature of politics.”
