Still Waters Posted September 14 #1 Share Posted September 14 Taylor Swift has just endorsed Kamala Harris – but it’s not just her vote Harris is after, it’s her millions of fans. Weeks before Taylor Swift endorsed Kamala Harris on Instagram, the gears had already begun to turn Swift’s millions of fans into bona-fide Harris voters. Soon after Harris announced her intention to run for president, Irene Kim, 29, who spends as many as 14 hours a day talking to fellow Swifties online and has attended more than five of Taylor Swift’s Eras tour concerts, sprung into action. Along with other mega-fans who supported Harris, they created social media accounts, memes, montages, and newsletters, all in a bid to help their favourite candidate win the election. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3d9dd8v75no 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Wearer of Hats Posted September 14 #5 Share Posted September 14 It’s terribly simple - they paid a shittonne of money to TayTay and she endorses Harris. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpler than that, she is a childless cat lady. and she doesn't want to be Elon Musk breeding stock. either. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, maybe I dreamed it, I can't find another thread on this forum. It could have been on another forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkHunter Posted September 15 #11 Share Posted September 15 Initial polling is suggesting that the Taylor Swift endorsement has backfired. https://www.yahoo.com/news/taylor-swift-endorsement-backfires-kamala-235647265.html From the YouGov poll, with YouGov generally beeing one of the bettee pollsters, it seems the Taylor Swift endorsement got 8% of those polled to be more likely to vote for Kamala Harris but it got 20% to be more likely to not vote for Kamala Harris.

Of course. I was just coming back to this thread to post something I think is true about voters and fans of singers. Just because someone is a fan of one person doesn't mean they are a zombie and will do anything that person does. That is a small percentage of extremists that will vote a certain way just because their idol votes that way. And there are so many "idols"/famous people with no credentials other than their music or movies there is no way the single minded fans will outnumber the non-fans and the thinkers who like a musician or actor. It is not quite idiocracy yet, though it seems it migh be in 20 years considering the lack of skills the young people are taught growing up now.

psyche101 Posted September 15 #13 Share Posted September 15 It's actually a bit silly to suggest it won't have a positive effect. It will be negligible, celebrity endorsements historically are, no reason this should be different. Untill now Trump's vitriol against Taylor is just another negative. He's showing himself to be a bully again and little respect for women again. Donald Trump says "I hate Taylor Swift!" What a childish fool that old fart is. On top of the pet eating idiocy, this should impact his popularity. To thinking people anyway. Although he is already quite the laughing stock of the world right now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a rather creepy down right threating remark he made that doesnt take a jump to wonder does he mean he would rape her? But her man replied something to the effect of making musk into a pretzel. On 9/14/2024 at 9:57 PM, psyche101 said: Nah. She's always been blue. And Trump and Co. have cheesed her off.

Youre right and i come from the music band industry albeit im small potatoes Its as you point out two fold, swift is mega popular across the board and a swell chick where trump is hated across the board and is a known lying sexist racist misogynist uncouth louth convicted felon. Trumps celebrity endorsements are um well we have kid rock And nugent... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psyche101 Posted September 17 #18 Share Posted September 17 I really hope Taylor Swift can sue his ass off over this one. The Trump campaign is ripping off Taylor Swift's merch with new 'Eras' T-shirt drop On Thursday, Trump's campaign dropped a new piece of merch based off of Taylor Swift's Eras tee, escalating the tension after the superstar endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president in a post on Instagram. The shirt, which features a black-and-white picture of Trump against a multicolor collage, goes for $45. It features well-known images of the former president, from his mug shot to a photo taken directly after the assassination attempt. Someone should release a tee shirt with that photo of his stained paints on the golf course. They would sell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk i had to go see the convicted felon rip version, I dont follow laws but i do recall Ferrari / chevy/ sueing and winning over kit car / replica builders on grounds that anything a kit car company was selling that made a person think of the real item was a violation that was in the 80s i have no idea if it stuck. Now psy you know this t shirt rip off is gonna stir a certain gnat into buzzing your ear that it doesnt matter its a rip off doesnt matter its cheddar richard as all hell its lord and master trump doing it so its fine and dandy more power to him to look ridiculous. Make me wanna buy a swift shirt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
