Links at the source but Hanania pretty much summed it up in his subtitle: Conservatives are losing the "don't be weirdos" contest

In other words, Taylor Swift's almost entirely white fanbase would be natural Republicans regardless of who Swift herself endorses. It goes without saying that if a white Millennial woman is listening to Taylor Swift and not, say, Ice Spice or Cardi B., she's probably more likely to vote Republican than not.

Keep this in mind:

At this point in history will we at last have a Taylor Swift political party? The question needed to be asked before the next Taylor Swift performance aka Superbowl.

I am getting so very sick to death seeing this Taylor Ditz in the news every-single-day as if the Messiah has returned to earth. When did extreme mediocrity warrant absolute constant attenton? “Oh but she makes lots of money” Yeah and so do the Kardashians. They only thing I’ve ever heard coming from her paralyzed looking face besides her lame music is Trump bashing. Is that it? The media promotes her constantly because she has TDS?

The host Jesse Watters suggested the superstar was a Defense Department asset engaging in psychological warfare. He tied Ms. Swift’s political voice with her boyfriend’s Pfizer endorsement to the remarkable success of her Eras tour, which bolstered local economies and landed her on the cover of Time.

That really does sound crazy, and neither Watters nor I can help it if Ms. Swift is the real-life version of Dethklok.

Disproportionate power to rural areas.

No need to read any further.

Sounds legit.

Madonna II, which is what Taylor will look like even sooner.

"more willing to show up"

No need to show up if you can vote by mail or someone else can vote for you by drop box.

> I can’t resist commenting on how the ongoing freakout over the Kansas City Chiefs making the Super Bowl perfectly encapsulates everything that has gone wrong. Taylor Swift may have endorsed Biden in 2020, but as Max Meyer pointed out after attending one of her concerts, everything about her aesthetic and place in the culture is implicitly conservative. Her fans want to be attractive and meet men. They’re not interested in changing their sex or cheering for urban mobs looting the local supermarket. If you simply give them some semblance of normalcy, they’ll be on your side and vote in opposition to the left and what it has becor. But instead of that, they get conspiracy theories about the Super Bowl being rigged so Swift can then endorse Biden, along with whatever this is:

The author of the article is a moron.

The NFL has made the field look like a stock car with "End Racism" and "Stop the Hate" pasted everywhere.
These are messages of a Marxist Cultural Revolution, not conservative America.

And as for Taylor Swift's having an a following which is naturally Republican. ?

“unusual quirk of us picking our head of state through the electoral college”

Yeah. Real unusual. As in, none of the small colonies would have bothered to join the Union if this wasn’t the case.

A quirk, ya know.

Sorry but the avarage American woman voter is about as vapid as Taylor Swift. The result is the election of the demented criminal Biden and his cabal. Also no nation in recorded history has ever appointed or elected so many demented old ladies to positions of real power. Face it, empowering women and homosexuals has led to the destruction of the American nation.

If we’ve really sunk this low then what difference at this point does it make?

Go Niners!
It seems weird to argue that the nominally “San Francisco” 49ers are the conservative choice in this year’s Super Bowl., but it’s actually the case here...

It’s a team led by conservative Christian QB Brock Purday. And though coach Kyle Shanahan keeps his politics close to the vest, longtime observers will remember that the Shanahan family are Republicans. For cryin’ out loud, Mike Shanahan hosted a Trump fundraiser in 2016! And everyone who’s paying attention knows that Mike Shanahan is unofficially on the 49ers staff, constantly dispensing advice to Kyle, per Kyle’s own admission.

And?

Eminem has a fanbase of young white Millennial men. Eminem hates Trump with a red hot passion. His fans voted for Trump almost exclusively.

Bruce Springsteen's fanbase voted for Trump almost exclusively.

Pearl Jam's fanbase voted for Trump almost exclusively.

Rage Against the Machine's fanbase voted for Trump almost exclusively.

Why would Swift's be any different? Indeed, every statewide race she endorsed in Tennessee (where Swift is registered to vote) lost to Republicans.

It doesn't matter who Swift endorses anymore than who Springsteen or Eminem endorses. The young white women who grew up as diehard Taylor Swift fans and are now swooning over the Swift/Kelce romance were more likely than not to have been raised in homes with more traditional family values and they will vote accordingly.

The reason I didn't breakdown the POC vote into various groups by gender, ethnicity or education level is that no matter how I broke it down, it was always 100% blue.

That is just not true at all. Thus the whole argument he puts forth is suspect. Who is this guy anyway? Never heard of him. Is he the kind of "conservative" that supports Nikki Haley & reads the National Review as if it's the gospel handbook for real conservatives?

This was based on 2020 election exit polling. How is it not true?

The “winning play” was entirely staged.

Just a couple years ago, Ms. Swift was sucking face with girls and then whining because George Soros bought her....She’s OWNED.
