‘Underestimate us. That will be fun.’ Taylor Swift fans mobilize for Kamala Harris

Taylor Swift has not endorsed anyone in this year’s presidential race. But her army of fans isn’t waiting for her. Swifties know which way she leans.

Swift, currently traveling in Europe with her mammoth Eras Tour, endorsed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in 2020.

Since Sunday, when Biden stepped down from his reelection campaign and Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee, Swifties have flooded social media supporting Harris, enchanted by the prospect of the first female president.

If the mammoth success of Swift’s tour has demonstrated anything, it’s this: When millions of Swifties mobilize, get out of their way.

And by millions we mean her 283 million Instagram followers, 32.8 million TikTok followers and 95 million followers on X.

You are right

It’s not all tenure

She has a broad fan base

Swift is one of those rare musicians that have reached icon status. She's becoming a female version of Elvis Presley.

I hope she remembers to take a stool softener. Elvis might have made it, if he did.

That was just one. Elvis took many, many craps better than any Tail-bird Swift song.
