Most celebrities are leftists. Or pretend to be if they know what’s good for them. Their endorsements or campaigning collectively may move the needle a bit, but they do it mainly by making a candidate look cool.
Obama used celebrity entourages very effectively. Bill Clinton did so to a more limited degree.
In 2020, Trump held a cinematic convention with lots of patriotic backdrops and speeches, while the Democrats went with a Zoom session packed with celebrities. Both conventions spoke well to their own demographics.
Taylor Swift, like most celebrities, already supported Biden in 2020. She’s bound to do it again. How much will that matter?
Not that much.
Her fake curated bestie online presence can’t do anything for Joe Biden. No matter what anyone does, Biden won’t be cool. His only campaign is anti, not pro, running against the threat of Trump. And that’s not really where Taylor Swift is much of an asset unless she decides to shake up her image.
Her fanbase mostly consists of millennial women. The kind who would already vote Democrat because their top two priorities are abortion and social justice. There Taylor Swift might help by boosting voter turnout. Maybe. I won’t sell the idea that Taylor Swift pushing mail-in votes to millennial women could make a difference, but it won’t change the outcome of the election. There will be too much going on for one celebrity to do that.
Most of the obsession with Taylor Swift reflects a hyper-saturated social media feed in which a single issue, event or personality is distorted completely out of proportion and rolled into every other story. That’s what this is. Taylor Swift is trending and so there’s a lot of resulting discussion about her and efforts to extend the trend by combining it with other major topics, like the election, for even more clicks, chatter and eyeballs.
You want to know what’s actually going to change the outcome of the election? Not Taylor Swift, voting rules.
Taylor Swift is a distraction. Secretaries of state, even if they’re in their 60s and can’t carry a tune, will make the difference. So will legal challenges, legislative actions and the other machinery of the election process.
The D-Bags are going to hammer us. There is no recourse to election cheating. None. Reblictards try to pretend there is but there isn’t. We’re fucked.
You are exactly right. There is no way to stop the steal because the Uniparty doesn’t want it stopped. Satan’s minions – oops I mean Democrats – got away with it scot-free in 2020 so why wouldn’t they do it again?
The Republican party is not even pretending to try to stop it. They fear that enforcing election integrity will anger Taylor Swift fans.
We probably are, Jeff, but we have to vote anyway. It’s the only legal avenue of civil disobedience left to us.
Thank you Daniel for speaking truth to power here, unlike so many other conservative journalists. As for me and mine, we couldn’t be more sick of hearing from or about the auto-tune princess. When she espouses that all Christians should support abortion, she doesn’t understand the principles of her own professed “faith”, so anything else she comments on is just as meaningless and probably wrong.
The mere fact that she’s threatening to sue a college student; tracking her private jet (with already publicly available info) and exposing her carbon footprint and climate hypocrisy, makes her the perfect democratic mouthpiece for the Biden administration and proves that “Swifties” aren’t that swift at all.
The faith like the houses and boyfriends is just another Instagram fashion accessory
……..There was Grace Kelly and the Prince of Monaco.
Now there’s Pop Princess Taylor Barbie and Football Prince Kelce Ken. I can see a special edition collector’s two doll set hitting stores should the Chiefs win the Super Bowl……
Colorado cant remove Trump from the Ballot and is Taylor Swift threated to leave all we can say id BYE BYE SPOILED LITTLE BRAT
The Dems and Biden are not worried about some fake “election’. Your ballot has already been filled out and is sitting in a box in a Virginia warehouse, just waiting for “election day”.
Political opinions from Hollyweird actors and singers are ONLY relevant to those that get investment advice from a Voodo Witch Doctor!
This article should be talking about how Congress and the Feral Courts REFUSED to look at the documented election fraud evidence in the 2020 Marxist coup!
I remember Michael Jackson getting the biggest endorsement deal ever to promote L.A. Gear shoes. The shoes flopped and L.A. Gear ended up filing for bankruptcy.
The Republican party is not even pretending to try to stop it. They fear that enforcing election integrity will anger Taylor Swift fans.
I don’t know much about auto-tune Barbie but I do recall reading several years ago that she became outspokenly Leftist simply because she wanted to expand into films and felt it would endear her to the Hollywood community. Don’t know if that’s true and, more importantly, don’t care. I do marvel that, apparently, there are millions of people open to taking political advice from a 34(?) year old singer, who is a billionaire with private jetliner, with no meaningful academic or practical experience beyond songwriting and singing songs usually about dissing and blaming the men for her serial romantic failures. I know that’s the profile of someone from who I take political advice. By this logic, Victor Davis Hanson should have a fabulous new career singing at sold out $3,000 per ticket arena concerts.
