I said this in the other post, but it bears repeating. Why hasn’t Taylor sent him a C&D after he used a AI image of her that endorsed him. She’s usually very protective of her image and goes after people who use her image in bad ways.

[nutella_forever]

Didn’t she go after people selling stuff with her lyrics on Etsy a few years ago?

[willardwright]

She did, and she should go back to this, because now the fourth result I got by putting "Taylor Swift" in the search bar on Etsy is a "Swifties for Trump" hoodie...

[willardwright]

Seriously. I don't believe she's Republican, but if somebody's, say, tracking her jet usage, she's at their throat immediately, but she has no reaction to this? That's... weird.

[skyler_white_yo]

My hot take is that she’s a Republican in private, but will put out whatever political statement she thinks will garner her the most positive response. Hence the Biden cookies in 2020…. Now that she’s dating the NFL, she’s gotta keep those people happy, so she’s not saying anything.

[flyingpigs_live]

I think she's a Republican when it comes to her money, but liberal on social issues.

But she doesn't want to piss off her MAGA fans, because you know some of those white women are.

[genbu_no_miko24]

Yeah I subscribe to the theory that she may not be a trump republican but a republican in general yes. She's a very wealthy, entitled, narcissistic white woman....they favor her a bit more than the Democratic side.

I bet she's liberal on social causes (the ones that benefit her the most btw) and more conservative when it comes to her dinero.

But she never speaks cause she refuses to not be seen in a harmless/fragile yet powerful white woman/america's sweetheart. She's a greedy coward.

Ia. She’s a Never Trump Republican, but a Republican nonetheless

[humannatur3]

ita. i thought the NFL people hated her though?

[henolam]

idt she votes republican. I think she would’ve kept silent if that was the case. kelce isn’t conservative either. neither probably are super left leaning but enough to disagree with the right’s social ideologies

[iznanassi]

what about this unapologetically racist, self-victimizing, capitalistic opportunist from the south who refuses to speak about social issues until long after they're non-issues, but even then her commentary is meaningless, says to you she's not a republican

idk why people give her so much good will

[skyler_white_yo]

She’s from Pennsylvania, but otherwise you are correct.

[iznanassi]

right i confused her family with herself, but it's kind of worse because it implies she's a white flight white lol

[willardwright]

Why so aggressive? I'm hardly a Taylor Swift fan. I just think she wouldn't be baking Biden cookies or trying to make herself some kind of feminist icon if she were Republican. I think it's important for her to look progressive, because a big, vocal part of her fanbase is.

Surely you don't think there are no Democrats (or self-proclaimed apolitical people, or third party voters) who are racist or capitalistic or any other things you mention?

[cheerspinkears]

*sigh* bc as we keep pointing out, this woman who went after small business owners and stay-at-home moms trying to make an extra buck on Etsy by selling unofficial merch, is staying silent about an abashedly evil rapist using her music. That’s why.

[myselfdestruct]

Its sad you had to spell that out to them. At this point, how do people not get what she does? She's pety and nasty.
