Trump risks backlash as MAGA world zeroes in on Taylor Swift

Former President Trump’s supporters are going after Taylor Swift amid chatter about whether the superstar could wade into the 2024 election with a coveted endorsement for President Biden.

Conservatives in both traditional media and social media have been launching conspiracy theories against the pop superstar, something that ramped up after The New York Times reported that the Biden campaign was actively hoping for her endorsement.

Trump, who is usually not shy about speaking his opinion, so far has stayed out of the fray, though Rolling Stone reported this week that the former president’s allies are pledging a “holy war” against Swift, especially if she sides with Democrats in November.

Vivek Ramaswamy, a former presidential candidate who has thrown his support behind Trump, is perhaps the most high-profile Republican to go after the singer so far, stoking theories that the NFL is rigging football games for Swift’s Kansas City beau as Democrats look for her endorsement.

“I wonder who’s going to win the Super Bowl next month,” Ramaswamy wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. “And I wonder if there’s a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped-up couple this fall.”

most of her fans are teens girls and not old enough to vote yet. and frankly this is much ado about nothing..

Most of her fans are Millennials, as Swift herself is. Book-ended by a fair amount of Gen-X and Gen-Z, all of whom are old enough to vote.

Preteen girls don't even know who Taylor Swift is.

Hannity has always been an abject idiot… just a parrot regurgitating for the most part whatever the RNC talking points of the day have been…

Smart man. Same here. I listen more to those talking about God and salvation more than anything else. Then the lying on both sides of the media just jumps out.

“Why is the media circling the wagons in defense of Taylor Swift?”

They are baiting us. Ignore her.
