      history books will be wild in 20 years when they detail how Swifties, KPOP fans and gay furry hackers saved American democracy.

      Taylor Swift’s companies own the trademark for “Swifties”. If she doesn’t file an injunction against the group, then it’s a tacit endorsement of Kamala.

      It sounds silly but people underestimate just how much influence swift has. It blows even my mind. If she can tip the scale in favor of dems this fall, I’m all for it

      She has 3 shows in FL in late Oct, and 3 more in IN (red as hell but close to MI and WI) in early Nov. Would sure be good opportunities to remind her fans to vote…

      – the fear of the rightwing this year is Taylor Swift mobilizing her millions and millions of voting age fans across the US and her making $100 million and higher contribution to defeat an authoritarian minded GOP

      Taylor Swift should speak at the DNC right before Kamala. That lead in wil bring a minimum of an extra 10 million viewers to her acceptance speech.

      Swift is SUPREMELY media savvy. Trust me when I tell you… she is going to directly go FULL BLITZ for Harris as we get closer to the election. And it’s going to be massive for turnout and organization.

      You know that segment in “The Wire” where everyone starts running because “OH FUCK, OMAR COMIN’!”??? That should be the GOP right now.

      Kamala is such a true uniting force, she’s uniting all the stanbases against the GOP!

      Swifties alongside Angels and Hotties and BTS Army, it’s a beautiful scary thing!

      Taylor and her Swifties are about to come riding into this election like Gandalf and the Rohirrim.

      Imagine how pissed Kanye the hater is after reading about this. His attempt at building a movement fizzled out and became a joke pretty fast.

      She needs to do her civic duty and endorse Harris for President in order to help keep the orange narcissist from gaining the powers of the presidency once again.

    20. whatlineisitanyway on

      If Swift were to endorse Harris and ask her fans to mobilize to directly volunteer for her I can only imagine the results.

      i love how this is going all these musical genres allying together to fight admiral dipshit and his cabana boy vance this is fantastic

      Let us all take a moment to remember that just a short time ago, we had the then leading candidate for POTUS (yes it was Trump), talking about driving out the “vermin”, the “radical left”, and a “bloodbath”.

      Now we have news of an organic movement of pop music fans mobilizing behind a very popular candidate for the office. Our hate filled and moronic cartoon villian is rambling about Cheerios and sharks.

      Go ahead- do a little dance!

      I saw on twitter that maga ppl were co-opting Taylor swifts image in a swifties for trump campaign . I hope Taylor comes out with a cease and desist order and then endorses Harris

    26. cluelessminer on

      I have a hunch Swift is waiting for the right moment; probably not until after the debate and and then some when the election is heating up. Someone like her will give a huge blow to Trump if and when she endorses Harris/Walz.

      I doubt she’ll stand around and not saying anything, either.

      I follow them on ig and tiktok! They post fun stuff and the comment section is so positive compared to most political accounts

    31. prybarwindow on

      It would be incredible if they could get her to make a special appearance and perform a couple songs at the DNC.
