Marsha Blackburn responds to Taylor Swift slam
Fox News ^ | October 9, 2018 | Elizabeth Zwirz

Marsha Blackburn, a Republican Senate candidate in Tennessee, responded Tuesday to Taylor Swift’s social media dig against her, and the pop star's announcement that she would be voting for Democrats in the midterm elections.

[snip]

“Of course I support women and I want violence to end against women,” Blackburn said. “I've been very active in abuse shelters and child advocacy centers. I've been advocating for women in equal pay since I was 19 years old and making certain that woman have the opportunity for maximum pay and have a good record on that.”

The congresswoman continued: "We're getting ready the Music Modernization Act that I helped steer through Congress. It's going to be signed on Thursday by the president. I've been very active in that and Taylor Swift will benefit by that." The wide-ranging bill would affect payments to songwriters, copyright performance rights and royalties, among other things.

Taylor may need to pay someone else to write her ‘Righteous Anger Talking Points’ next time. Better yet, stay in your lane, Taylor.

Here's video of Oct 3, 2018 Trump rally in Johnson City Tenn. Millennial Millie gets responses that should hearten all. Folks well informed on issues, incensed by Dem witch hunt of Kavanaugh. Most amazing are the never-voted-before folks as well as walk aways from Dems.

Very determined to make Red Tsunami... 6:25 mins

Taylor Swift Effect:

Man, that's stark.

It's hard to believe she's not shaking her head in disbelief (when I say "she," I mean Taylor Swift).

She makes her stupid pronouncement, and Bredesen's numbers take a dramatic fall, almost instantly. Great move Taylor!

Taylor Swift is so brave.

It takes so much courage today for a celebrity to endorse Democrats to show their support for LGBT rights and that they are against racism.

You are so inspiring.

Forgot to mention that therewere several very articulate hispanic and black voters as well, so much for the media’s only white power myth.

It may be a Tennessee thing. Mel Tillis stuttered when he wasn’t singing. Taylor swift is dumber when she isn’t singing. I’d vote for Marsha or Mel ( if he was running). Can’t cure stupid.
