President Donald Trump said he's a fan of actress Sydney Sweeney's much-debated jeans ad campaign ‒ after hearing she's a registered Republican.

What started as a buzzy campaign starring one of Hollywood’s most in-demand actresses quickly spiraled into a sprawling cultural debate.

Sweeney’s ad with American Eagle faced some backlash over its use of the word “genes” instead of “jeans,” resulting in many conservative pundits defending the popular actress. Trump told reporters that he loved the ad after being told Sweeney was a registered Republican.
