Taylor Swift fans have bad blood with Scooter Braun, and one Democrat hopes this might help him become the next governor of Virginia.

Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe has purchased a series of ads aimed at fans of Swift, tying his Republican opponent, Glenn Youngkin, to the contentious sale of her master recordings, The Verge reports. In 2019, record executive Scooter Braun's company Ithaca Holdings purchased Swift's record label Big Machine Label Group, obtaining control of the singer's masters in a purchase she spoke out against and is controversial among her fans.

Hasn’t politics always been about pandering to pop culture or am I just jaded after years of watching it happen and forgot what it used to be like?

This is actually an incredibly desperate act. His internal
Polling must be bad after the “Parents shouldn’t tell schools what to teach” line.

Yeah, that is great. Taylor Swift will win over those Youngkin voters real easy. Two thumbs up McAuliffe! (I need a Men in Films review gif but I can’t find one.) (/s)

I don’t know why he is worried. The mail-in ballot fraud should guarantee his victory.

“The youth vote” They don’t show up in off years.
Maybe a Natalie Wood add to motivate the dead voters to show up.

This isn’t California. You have to ask for a mail in ballot and I think the request has to notarized.

Taylor Swift is getting old and fat below the waist. A big no no for pop singer.
She cannot sing but makes her money lip syncing and dancing around on stage. No memorable songs but does sell many tickets for her stage show.

Democrat governors made Virginia’s slogan “Virginia is for Gamblers and Pot Heads”

McAuliffe is anti capitalism, that makes sense.
