Taylor Swift's Squad Defends Her on Social Media

In the wake of Kim Kardashian's recent takedown, Taylor Swift's squad has #Risen like Katy Perry in a show of support. Only, not at all like Katy Perry because she is clearly Team Kimye.

Behold, tweets from Ruby Rose, Martha Hunt, and Swift Squad Vice President, Selena Gomez.

Take interest in the real problems going on. Spread love. ❤️

And based on what Zendaya's favoriting on Twitter lately, it appears she's no longer a squad member:
