Taylor Swift has, admittedly, been reluctant to publicly voice her political opinions throughout her career. However, on Sunday night, a day after wrapping up the United States leg of her Reputation tour, she took to Instagram to share a lengthy post about the midterm elections in November.

She’s a very nice singer.

As a political thinker, she’s a very nice singer.

Pissin off half your fans is not a good idea. Just sayin’.

It's so awesome that every time anything happens in politics I have Mitt Romney and now Taylor Swift to share their correct thinking and I don't even have to pay for it. Without this, how would I know whom to support?

It's wonderful and I would be nothing without you two, Thanks Mitt and Taylor.

Just noticed this...

https://www.google.com.vn/amp/s/amp.tennessean.com/amp/1562109002

One hour after Taylor Swift threw her much-ballyhood, and increasingly suspect lack of partisanship aside.

There is a poll showing the guy she’s flailing away for...

Behind by eight points.

And she just turned off HALF of her fans.

Bad, bad move, Taylor.

Big goof.

its become very easy for me to simply ignore Hollywood and entertainment people who come out as liberals. Of course, it happens a lot, but thats fine - most of modern TV and entertainment is total trash.

I just treat them like they died.

But Little Miss Sugar Britches will vote for a man who supports Kavanaugh and a man who repeatedly voted against gays.

But she says she supports woman.(Yeah, just liberal wymen)

Maybe Tennessee just ain’t your stat, Miss Taylor

Taylor Swift has been assimilated into the Borg.

>>Taylor Swift has broken her long-held public political silence in an Instagram post encouraging her followers to vote in the November midterm elections and slamming Republican Tennessee representative Marsha Blackburn.

So Taylor Swift is telling women NOT to vote for the vagina? Vote for the Man instead?

Just like in Texas Hispanics are told to vote for the Irish guy with the Mexican nickname instead of the Cuban-American.

She knows who butters her bread, doesn’t she? Very courageous.

She’s been quiet over the years about politics, relying on a generic Get out and vote message. I hope her young fan base tells her, Mom and Dad have more money in their paychecks now due to Republican policies and since we have more more money to buy things instead of when the Democrats taxed us to death, it won’t be your sh$t music we buy.

Who is this intellectual that the hill is hyping? What major accomplishments has she contributed to warrant such a soap box?

Pissin off half your fans is not a good idea. Just sayin’.

I think she's going to retire, or at least go into semi-seclusion for a while.

She's almost 29, has been going non-stop since she was a teenager, and is a multi-millionaire many, many times over. She's also past her peak. At this point, she's not worried about selling albums or concert tickets.

Her fans are about 13 years old, I doubt this will have any impact on anything.

Now if katty parry comes out against Trump, then we have a problem. /s

The problem. Her fans don’t vote or are not old enough to.
