Former President Trump’s supporters are going after Taylor Swift amid chatter about whether the superstar could wade into the 2024 election with a coveted endorsement for President Biden.
Conservatives in both traditional media and social media have been launching conspiracy theories against the pop superstar, something that ramped up after The New York Times reported that the Biden campaign was actively hoping for her endorsement.
Trump, who is usually not shy about speaking his opinion, so far has stayed out of the fray, though Rolling Stone reported this week that the former president’s allies are pledging a “holy war” against Swift, especially if she sides with Democrats in November.
Vivek Ramaswamy, a former presidential candidate who has thrown his support behind Trump, is perhaps the most high-profile Republican to go after the singer so far, stoking theories that the NFL is rigging football games for Swift’s Kansas City beau as Democrats look for her endorsement.
“I wonder who’s going to win the Super Bowl next month,” Ramaswamy wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. “And I wonder if there’s a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped-up couple this fall.”

Why is the media circling the wagons in defense of Taylor Swift? What do they know about her, that we don’t know?
Its a win win for them, this allows them to drive maga into attacking Taylor Swift and pissing off the very large number women fans she has.
Unless she continues to plug the dems, what she does now will be pretty much forgotten by election time.
Kansas City voters will revolt after only seeing half the game. Taylor can’t buy this type of publicity.
Swift was Biden’s tool to get young people out to vote. Politicians use celebrities all the time to get out the vote. That is especially true when politicians get desperate.
What’s off is that after decades of fake nude photos and video of pretty much every famous person, the White House only gets concerned when it happened to Swift. That’s just weird. It’s almost like someone whizzed in their punch bowl and spoiled the plan.
I don’t think Trump has said anything at all about Taylor Swift.
She barely got many to vote, I believe that many didn’t care.
Do ya think Taylor Swift fans really want to hear her pitch politics? Any bets on the loud boo’s coming from the crowd when she tries? I seriously doubt she got into the pop music culture to rant about politics to her fans and this could really screw with her popularity leaving her career scarred for good. And really...when the incumbent party is looking to a young n dumb pop sex symbol to shore up votes...they already know that they’re in big big trouble. I’ll be really surprised if she agrees to do more than one photo op and/or open her mouth if at all.
“Why doesn’t he just ignore her? Bringing her up all the time gives he more publicity”
That is what we want because exposing her as a witting/unwitting tool of the deep state opens the eyes of her fans to:
1) Question her message in support of Democrats.
2) Question other social influencers messaging in support of Democrats as simply a political tool.
3) Question the actions of other institutions putting forward similar messaging (i.e. Unions, media, government directed private businesses, etc.)
4) Creates an awareness of her fans that they have been programmed to parrot the message of political party with which they might disagree just because they like her music.
Exactly! This is a case of the media whipping up a tempest of their choosing.
It is very similar to a situation to which my Dad would say: “Let’s you an him fight!”
She is an embarrassment to the NFL fans.she has no sway. This is crowd envy to piss off Trump.Another Bud Lite type fail.
via Laura Ingraham: “shut up and sing”. It’s advice, Taylor.
Nor should he...he is best advised to ignore her, as we all should, at least for now.
Two minutes after the game is over all of this swift will tell young women to vote for Crime Boss Joey stuff will be over.
I don’t give a hoot about TS, and I’m not gonna let anything about her bother me. She’s just an entertainer!
Kindly quote whatever it is that Trump said about Swift please.
