Perfect. Now she’ll do a voter registration drive.
Also if you’ve been sitting on a donation for Harris between now and the next 24 hours will give Harris another big news cycle bump.

I’m not sure an insult from a 20 minute old account is going to sting very much. Nice try, tho. I’d give your trolling attempt a solid 4/10.
So I’m going to go out on a limb and say this debate went better for Dems. Bold, I know.
Seriously, though. Wow. At least I’ll be able to sleep tonight.
So of course Musk immediately threatens to “give her a child”. Like a normal not weird person.
Um, maybe it’s an attempt at a compliment? Like, it’s just so attractive she speaks up, now he wants to have a family with her? Or maybe he just wants to give her one of his already born children, he has plenty to go around.
Maybe he is threatening to force one of his numerous, unloved, kids on her?
Ahh, who are we kidding. He totally thinks that getting dick from a “real man”, and having his child, will trad pill her. Cause Elon is much more masculine than her huge, pro-athlete, boyfriend.
No.
Don’t give the creep the benefit of the doubt. He’s got this weird ass breeding kink he inherited from his father and has been gross toward women in the past.
He wants to invite her to Epstein island
She’s too old for that.
As a…consumer
She’s too “not a rapist/pedophile” for that
It’s weird and gross.
Even when read as sarcasm, your original comment is still cringe inducing
my queen
“Breaking News” 🤦♂️ Ugggghhhh.
It actually is though. When they use the same header two days from now…
I mean… one of the most influential people on the planet just endorsed a candidate for President. That is pretty breaking news.
More importantly, she was waiting for the best time to do it. I would hate to be the guy who has to tell Trump.
Trump’s left brain cell: “Woman no agree with me so she ugly!”
Trump’s right brain cell: “But woman blonde like Ivanka! I want to sex her!”
bzzrtPOP
[system malfunction]
(Second brain cell added for artistic license)
He’s currently standing awkwardly in the spin room hoping that people will talk to him.
Who would want to talk to a felon and adjudicated rapist? Gross!
I’m sure some reporters talked to him. There are some pretty amusing clips of him just sorta standing around awkwardly.
There is a non-zero chance that some reporter told him about the Taylor Swift endorsement. I truly hope he responded with the grace and elegance he had on display all night 😂
while I personally don’t like when people use clout for things like this, some people don’t realize how big politically she can be. She outright had governments fighting for show exclusivity just so she would choose their country for people to travel to. Her influences has whole damn governments fighting each other.
I’ll take it!!!
There’s always something to complain about
This is not “breaking news” under any circumstances.
Glad she’s supporting kamala and using her influence, but that being said the celebrity worship nonsense is silly. Not breaking news.
Unfortunately celebrity worship is influence, and influence is the key in elections. No influence, no vote. It is power. And the amount of influential power Taylor swift has is absolutely staggering. I wouldn’t be surprised if her endorsing kamala brings in tens if not hundreds of thousands of voters to register.
I’m skeptical that the kinds of people that would be swayed to vote for Kamala solely due to Taylor Swifts endorsement, are the kinds of people who see breaking news on NBC.
It’s not breaking news, which was my OP LOL. She could probably have the intended effect on tik tok and Twitter.
But still, I don’t really care, if it gets more votes against trump I’m all for it.
It ain’t breaking news though LOL. Putin launching a nuke is breaking news.
Well, we are talking about a pop star with absolutely staggering amount of influence and reach, specifically with a young demographic. If she were able to motivate her fan-base to vote, that would be a huge deal.
I mean she is probably the most popular pop star in the world, so I think it is breaking news if it helps the disenfranchised youth vote for Kamala over Trump.
Yeah, the fact that I keep seeing this as breaking, or important, news makes me want to break into a broadcast center and pull a “The Network”.
Dear Trump
We, are never ever ever, getting back together.
Sincerely, The White House
Praise Tay
Her statement was impeccable. She mentioned the AI generated fake image which appeared three weeks ago. This is the response that had to be made by her. She signed it Childless Cat Lady. Perfect.
I’d bet my left testicle all these millionaire and billionaire celebrities are actually voting Republican… they’re just too afraid of the backlash to admit it… lol.
Instead of letting Trump pick the time, she picked the time that hurt him the most.
Been waiting for this since Trump decided to attack her and her fanbase, and misuse her image without her permission.
Go on, you MAGA idiots, start shouting at Taylor Swift. I dare you.
Well of course she did… it’s easy being a Democrat celebrity…
Have a downvote with that salty wine
Agreed. It sure is easy to publicly not be a cunt.
Some folks here really seem to think that her fans don’t have any political opinions without her. This is actually as much about her politically engaged fan base wanting her to use her platform for good, than it is about swaying people who might be very young or unsure about voting.
Lots of swifties are millenials who lean left and liberal and some have criticized her in the past for not speaking up or for leaving her views ambiguous in a way that left room for the right to coopt her image. This is not about silly pop fans needing to be told what to think. People aren’t ignorant. It’s exactly because she’s powerful and very wealthy, that it’s important for her to use her power to be very clear about where she stands. Especially in light of the ai thing and the Brittany Mahomes weirdness.
and some have criticized her in the past for not speaking up or for leaving her views ambiguous in a way that left room for the right to coopt her image.
This seems important to her, especially considering her timing – she mentioned that the right has been circulating deep fakes of her falsely claiming she endorsed trump.
obviously a lot of them are engaged, but the US is famously bad at actually voting, so this might make a significant difference in who votes.
I really hope that it does.
ideally it should, we saw something similar after kamala harris took over biden.
Good news!

NEW: A General Services Administration spox tells NPR that as of 11 a.m. ET today there have been 306,422 visitors to http://vote.gov referred from Taylor Swifts’s URL she shared on Instagram last night
damn holy shit, big if true.
She did it in 2023 and I’m not one for bets. :) https://www.npr.org/2023/09/22/1201183160/taylor-swift-instagram-voter-registration
Heck yeahh
Screw the debate. The real news!

“Billionaire endorses politician” 🙄
lol

If Taylor Swift spearheads voter registration drives in swing states and Pennsylvania specifically, the race could be over.
I don’t imagine most of her fans are of voting age, but the exposure certainly can’t hurt.
I mean…Trump has a 60-something year old retired wrestler, and a 50-something trashrock star for his celebrity endorsements.
One seems more significant than the other, especially for women.
Taylor is 34 and has been popular for over a decade. There are young fans, but she has millions of fans of voting age
Fun fact: Swift’s first album is old enough to vote.
Why would you make me face my mortality in this way
All of my coworkers are Swifties who attend her concerts and constantly play her music. Most of them are in their 30s and 40s. Her audience isn’t as young as you’d think, she’s been making music for decades now.
I’m the same age as Taylor and I see at least one of my peers attending her concerts every week on social media. Her reach right now is insane.
Sure, I get that. I’d just like the obvious sane choice to be made more than a celebrity endorsement. Feels pretty shitty that we’re at this point.
Our last president was a celebrity, and that’s the second actor we’ve had as president alone. What point are you referring to?
