"I will impregnate her" -Elon Musk
"She will be raped by Venezuelans" -David Rubin
"Children's Genitals!" -Megyn Kelly
Weird...
If they didn't want her to voice her opinion they shouldn't have spent a week making fake ai images of her endorsing Trump. They forced her hand; she could either allow her likeness to be appropriated for a political cause she doesn't agree with, or make her true opinion known.
Republicans: Cancel culture is ruining the country!
Also Republicans: You endorsed Harris? Kiss your Republican record sales goodbye!
I must admit that I don't get, why it's such a big deal, that Taylor Swift supports Harris. But seeing the meltdown of the right wing grifters does put a smile on my face.
She has 284 MILLION followers. And the Swifties are also like a cult. Granted a more sensible one. But people will support her through anything. And many of those supporters are gen z and just entered the voting pool. The GOP does not want a huge influx of voters.
I have a good friend that is a Swifty, they are basically another uber fandom with actual irl clout. Apparently she brought over a quarter million potential signups through this.
Elmo basically threatened to rape her... Shitbag.
If only you were exaggerating... but sadly not.
On the flip side, imagine voting for someone because Ben Shapiro is doing so.
Imagine doing or believing anything because of anything that guy said or did. I'm not even sure how anyone can stand listening to him.
The party of rapists, child molesters and murderers is mad at Taylor Swift. She must've done something right. 🤔
It's funny how Taylor Swift mattered when Trump faked her endorsement.
The argument that "you shouldn't vote for someone just because your favorite celebrity endorses them" seemed like a much more credible argument before the 2016 election when the winning candidate essentially won by literally being a celebrity.
Prior to 2016, Trump was probably best known for being the host of a reality TV show, and being a "businessman". Taylor Swift is definitely better known, and you could also make a solid argument that she is a better "businessman" as well.
Trump threatened her for her endorsement. Anyone who thinks he has any redeeming qualities is beyond redemption.
I'm sure MAGAts are having to do mental jumping jacks from approving of a fake endorsement for Trump to now saying that her endorsement for Harris doesn't really matter and that she's a nobody. The whole thing is dumb either way, but if a pop star's endorsement is what it takes to hold off the fascists for at least 4 more years, then so be it.
Celebrities have every right to voice their opinion on national issues.
And, that is not a "zero risk" position.
A recent example is the formerly known: "Dixie Chicks". Research their dilemma.
And in the past, late 1940's, Hollywood had a "Blacklist" which was a very serious shit list which fucked over plenty of people.
Many American celebrities are also citizens with every right to voice their opinion the same as your lawn sign or bumper sticker. Yet, sometimes, it's a really good thing when those celebrities rally their groupies, Swifties, etc.
Like almost always, it boils down to others being jealous of the "power" of other people.
Why the hate They got the endorsment of quality stars like Kid rock, Kanye, Kevin sorbo, Hulk Hogan, Elon musk,
Al fine gentlemen /s
Was anyone on the left that mad when KidRock or Ted Nugent coming out in support of Dump?
No.
In fairness neither kid rock nor ted Nugent are relevant enough to convince any significant number of people to vote.
I can't imagine living in such a weird celebrity country.
Very few people give a shit about celebrities here, let alone what they think, let alone what they think about politics. No one would care for who endorsed who, it very much means absolutely nothing.
The vast majority of us dont give two shits about any of this either. It's just 24hour news cycle slop. Anything for the clicks.
Of course you don't list where "here" is. I'm willing to bet that not only do they care about celebrities about the same as Americans, but also that many of those celebrities they care about are Americans.
not beating the "weird" allegations
Megyn Kelly is nasty ~ Donald Trump
Megyn has that short term GOP memory. These people have no soul.
Republicans would lose 2/3 off their voter base if they listened to Ben Shapiro. Like how many voters have become Republican because they listened to their favorite radio DJ or podcaster.
I half agree with Shapiro. It is stupid to vote for someone because a celebrity or anyone else famous that you like endorses someone.
However, people do, so it does indeed get votes.
It's less stupud to listen to Taylor Swift than it is to Ben Shapiro.
Choose who you listen to wisely. And no, her being a singer has little influence on that decision.
I know you LIBTARDS are going to say SOMETHING about School Shootings and Body Parts Falling Off so let me TELL you that she said CHOPPED OFF you Dumb Marxists! We ONLY care if they get CHOPPED off not SHOT off or MASSACRED off!
