Carter took to his Twitter to tell his fans that he no longer supports Trump; Twitter is the same platform that he used to endorse Trump for president in February, citing in a [now-deleted tweet](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/aaron-carter-donald-trump%5Fus%5F56d20d72e4b0871f60eba585 "undefined") that Donald Trump would be “someone who leads.” However, in April, Carter tweeted once again to say that he would not be voting for Donald Trump, writing that “it’s just something I can’t take part in. Too many reasons.” > [](https://twitter.com/aaroncarter/status/726135181384409088) Now, Carter tweeted again on Monday night, telling fans he no longer supports Trump and retweeting a statement by former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. > [](https://twitter.com/aaroncarter/status/785658225488072704) > [](https://twitter.com/Schwarzenegger/status/784803865723965440) Banks took back her support of Trump in a series of Facebook posts where she also noted that she “deeply regret\[s\] mixing music and politics as I am now finding it nearly impossible to keep up with the election and the media frenzy,” and that she “made a major mistake endorsing” Trump as “women’s rights are important and we must protect them.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4526589/aaron-carter-azealia-banks-on-donald-trump/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4526589/aaron-carter-azealia-banks-on-donald-trump/"},"headline":"Aaron Carter and Azealia Banks Withdraw Support for Donald Trump","datePublished":"2016-10-11T17:30:07.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:37:31.283Z","description":"The artists took to the Internet to let their fans know","url":"https://time.com/4526589/aaron-carter-azealia-banks-on-donald-trump/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Entertainment","Music","celebrity","Election 2016","Culture"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt09c16640bf72ff79/6988a98cf887dc1ae6e97c1c/aaron-carter-not-voting-for-trump.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt09c16640bf72ff79/6988a98cf887dc1ae6e97c1c/aaron-carter-not-voting-for-trump.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Fashion Tails - Adopt A New Attitude - Arrivals","caption":"Fashion Tails - Adopt A New Attitude - Arrivals","creditText":"Rodin Eckenroth—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4526589/aaron-carter-azealia-banks-on-donald-trump/","name":"Aaron Carter and Azealia Banks Withdraw Support for Donald Trump"}}]}] ```
