Yup. No politician could, in their wildest dreams, organically drum up the sort of raw popular energy one of her tours generates. You don’t want to generate bad blood with the Swifties.
One potential impact of such celebrity endorsement could be driving registration of new voters. What jumped out at me about the TaylorSwift statement wasn’t who she endorsed - that eas a no brainer - but that she specifically pointed out that you must be registered in order to vote, and linked...
And it cuts both ways. Voting red or blue because everyone in your family back to your great-great-grandpappy makes equal sense.
I'm not so sure. This site claims that her fan base is 45% Millennial (28-43 years old), 21% Gen X (44-59) and 25% Boomers (60-78).
We find ourselves in agreement. The simple say-so of a billionaire entertainer should not be driving how someone votes, and a lot of low-info voters are unfortunately persuaded by such things. But in the end, every vote is equal.
...would a disturbance need to get to for the PM to no-crap need to know immediately? If he were at a high-level conference instead of a TaylorSwift concert, would this have been flagged to his attention and he leave the conference?
Maybe this is at a level where, like the navy does, it...
The CEO has both the legal power and the immediate need to act to protect his brand. The PM, conversely, needs to be adequately briefed on what’s actually going on to determine if a) it’s in his wheelhouse at all, b) anything else being said by other parts of government is consistent, and c)...
I’d suggest that the number of right wingers losing their minds that TaylorSwift is dating a member of the team that won the Super Bowl would suggest that the right cares a lot about “feelings” too.
I wouldn't categorize this as a "wacky pick", but listening to the current babbling of talking heads, one name that came up as a potential VP candidate if Harris leads the ticket was Arizona Senator Mark Kelly.
From a couple of days ago, before President Biden's announcement...
Well, people around here seem to be OK with the polls showing PP well ahead, but you're correct. The only real poll is the election.
Meanwhile, maybe JT needs this?

More or less yes. Now that the superbowl is over it seems to have died down a bit.

Basic premise is that the Super Bowl has been rigged by the pentagon and that TS is a one of their...
...the catalyst for her doing so. If that part didn’t happen, she may have endorsed Harris anyway but now there is a concrete reason for TaylorSwift to pick one candidate over another.
I’m guessing most Swifties, based on their demographics, would be Dem supporters. But, she specifically...
...ticket they were not excepting and will likely be completely unsuitable to deal with the Dem ticket.
I mentioned this months ago about TaylorSwift. She is a brand with hundreds of millions of followers and consumers. That brand has data and trends on all of them. The Democrats will want...
On one hand, I’m not completely sure how this in principle (getting people to register and vote) is different than TaylorSwift posting on her socials after backing Harris and having half a million people register.
On the other hand, I’m not sure how Musk can know that he’s giving money to...
