Taylor Swift pens open letter to support Equality Act:'I personally reject the President's stance'
EW ^ | June 1, 2019

Posted on 06/01/2019 5:30:21 PM PDT by SMGFan

Taylor Swift was once apolitical — famously so. That changed in October 2018 when she made a bold and rare move to support Democratic nominees in the midterm elections. At the stroke of midnight on June 1, 2019, which kicked off LGBTQ Pride Month, Swift released an open letter to one of her senators, Tennessee’s Lamar Alexander, in support of the Equality Act and in rejection of President Donald Trump’s stance on the matter.

“I personally reject the President’s stance that his administration, ‘supports equal treatment of all,’ but that the Equality Act, ‘in its current form is filled with poison pills that threaten to undermine parental and conscience rights.’ No. One cannot take the position that one supports a community, while condemning it in the next breath as going against ‘conscience’ or ‘parental rights,'” the 29-year-old “ME!” singer wrote in the letter, which she published to her social media channels. “That statement implies that there is something morally wrong with being anything other than heterosexual and cisgender, which is an incredibly harmful message to send to a nation full of healthy and loving families with same-sex, nonbinary or transgender parents, sons or daughters.”

Making everything a federal law is a huge mistake. Waste of time, resources, disrupts society.

Taylor’s music is for people not old enough to go into the country bars. Brenda Lee and Tanya Tucker were infinitely better in their teens.

This is part of her ill-considered plan to goose sagging sales.

Taylor Swift may be setting the stage to come out of some kind of closet.

People who supported her are starting to feel stabbed in the back.

It was critical for her that she didn’t drink the Hollywood cool-aid...

This is the sort of move that separates the true legends from the pan flashes.

Sorry, Taylor. You screwed up. Stop now. Sing. Take care of your fans.
