Nearly one in five Americans believe Taylor Swift-Biden conspiracy, poll finds
Theory that singer is plotting to help Biden win election has flourished in rightwing media after she started dating Travis Kelce
Just under a fifth of Americans believe Taylor Swift is part of a conspiracy to help Joe Biden win re-election in November, a new poll found.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift
“The supposed Taylor Swift psyop conspiracy has legs among a decent number of Trump supporters,” said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute, in a statement on Tuesday...
...But the game did end with the Chiefs victorious, also supposedly part of Biden’s fiendish plan.
Biden’s social media team gleefully tweeted a “Dark Brandon” meme, showing him with lasers for eyes, and the message: “Just like we drew it up.”
-----------------New article
Taylor Swift is a “Pentagon asset”, an “election interference psyop” who, with unnamed left-leaning forces, has conspired to “rig” the Super Bowl and then endorse Joe Biden in the presidential election...
“They’re gearing up for an operation to use Taylor Swift in the election against everything: against Trump, for Biden, they’re gonna get her and all you know they call them the Swifties they’re going to turn those into voters, you watch.”
Posobiec did not elaborate on who “they” are, but Roseanne Barr, the rightwing former actor who, for unexplained reasons, was also in the video, agreed. ( Roseanne Barr's in on this!)...
...Vivek Ramaswamy, a failed Republican presidential candidate and keen spreader of misinformation, had added his thoughts on Sunday.
“I wonder who’s going to win the Super Bowl next month,” Ramaswamy posted on X, in a reply to a post from Posobiec, who a Southern Poverty Law Center investigation found had “collaborated with white supremacists, neo-fascists and antisemites for years”.
Ramaswamy added: “And I wonder if there’s a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped-up couple this fall. Just some wild speculation over here, let’s see how it ages over the next 8 months.” (BMH likes Ranawamy - future President right there.)

Dope probably likes the theory, but won't admit it. I think conspiracy theories are here to stay, so we might as well have some fun with it.
Elon Musk's new truck is rusting out already as part of a Biden plan to discredit the right winger and bring satellite links to heel.

Much of MAGA world has already been shown to be low information, easily duped and manipulated fools. It's the perfect zombie base that the Republican Party has been working hard to create for years.

There is also a MAGA theory that Swift was attracted to Kelce for the $70k bonus each KC man got for being on the squad going into the Superbowl.
Not dissuading the MAGAts; Swift earned over $2 billion dollars in 2023, and earns about $1,000,000 per show.
She is a major philanthropist, as opposed to the orange rapist clan that defrauds charities.
Also perturbing the orange rapist's cult... Swift comes from a solid family and, unlike the orange rapist, earned her wealth herself.

$70K? For Taylor, that is chump change. Her net worth is over $1B.
I do find it amusing that MAGA is going down this alley. It's a dead-end. She is a philanthropist, and while we can deduce that she mostly votes Democrat, she has almost always stayed out of politics. Apparently, she endorsed a local candidate where she lives (for mayor, I think). That's it. Which is smart. She doesn't want to lose any fans, because fans are her business.
She's not Bono or the Dixie Chicks.

swift is so teflon, she could not only be pro-biden but explicitly anti-trump and easily survive any weak backlash.
(hell, if GOP parents dislike her, it may actually increase her popularity with their kids)
it would be fun to see MAGA flail w/out impact, and see some real influence get exercised in actual votes.

She needs business? (Sorry, couldn't resist!)
I was clandestinely able to find out the name of Bill Gates' first pet and use it as a password to hack into the computer systems of the Deep State. Interesting stuff.
I found that now that the Super Bowl is over and Travis Kelce won't be on TV so much in front of big audiences, Swift is dumping him and will start dating Hunter Biden. The first time they are seen in public will be on a triple date with the Mayourkases and the Faucis.
You heard it here first.
You're welcome.

She didn't campaign for him then but posted a photo of herself with Biden cookies. Frankly, I'd actually be surprised if she doesn't publicly announce she's voting for Biden this time around. And it was be great to see her involved in his campaign.

1poorkid (a "Swifty") showed me a tweet from around 2020 where she blasts Trump for hypocrisy (appeared to be about Jan 6). So she isn't politics-free. But 1poorkid had to go several years back to point out something political from Swift.
I wouldn't care if she came out in support of Biden or not. It might be amusing to see MAGA heads explode. I was just reading this morning that 1 in 3 Reps believe the Swift/NFL psy-op. That's truly sad. I'm not sure if she should ignore, or feed it. It would be fun to play with their minds (what little minds they have...the 1 in 3) and say "it's all true; and we're adding more than fluoride to your water!").
I suspect she'll ignore it.

She endorsed Biden against Trump in 2020.

Like this tweet:
After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence? ‘When the looting starts the shooting starts’??? We will vote you out in November. @realdonaldtrump
10:33 AM · May 29, 2020You fan the flames of white supremacy and racism and "We will vote you out in November" are pretty strong and clear political messages, no?
And again, I wouldn't be surprised to see her campaigning this time around.

Hmmm...seems you are correct. My previous searching only revealed endorsing a few local candidates where she lives. But apparently she did make a social media post about supporting Biden and baking Biden cookies during the VP debate.
Or maybe it's all part of the psy-op against MAGA!!
While doing the above search, apparently Trump feels that Swift "owes" him, and endorsing Biden would be "disloyal". I mean...wow. Now I really want her to endorse Biden. Just to see Trump's reaction. I didn't really care before, but gray matter splattered all over MAGA-TV would have a lot of entertainment value.
May as well poke at the monster. Maybe Tay-Tay and Kelce could go on the road for Biden... ;-)

Yep, that's the post she showed me. Though I didn't note the date at the time. She also told me that Swift encouraged her fans to register to vote, which (no matter who was saying it) I totally support. That's actually politically neutral.
We'll see what she does this time. Is she going to turn into Bono, political rants at every turn? I doubt it. But maybe Trump will inflame her enough to induce her to put out some anti-Trump messages. It's kinda sad, in a way, but an A-list celebrity like her would have a lot of influence. (i.e. just because you're a celebrity doesn't mean you have any sage wisdom; if you do, that is independent of being a celebrity or not)
What's the next step in the psy-op? I misplaced my playbook.
