The morning after his first presidential debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald Trump turned to friendly territory by calling into Fox & Friends. But co-host Steve Doocy still had a question for Trump that he probably wouldn’t like: Did he hear about Taylor Swift endorsing Harris?

Almost immediately following the end of the debate on Tuesday, Swift posted her endorsement of Harris on Instagram, imploring her followers to do their own research and vote; she endorsed President Joe Biden in 2020. She also cited the faked AI images of her that she was supporting Trump, which Trump and his campaign shared.

She seems to always endorse a Democrat. And she’ll probably pay a price for it at the, in the marketplace.

Doubtful

I dunno man. She barely broke a billion dollars on the eras tour after Biden. Surely this will be the one to completely ruin her.

It doesn’t even matter. Even if Taylor Swift never makes another dollar, she’s still set for life.

Fucking clickbait title… He said she would pay IN THE MARKETPLACE. It makes it sound like he’s actually threatening her.

If her MAGA fans don’t like her endorsements that much, they would have stopped supporting her when she endorsed Biden last time.

Also, why do conservatives claim to hate cancel culture but embrace it when anyone opposes them?

“That’s a boycott, not cancelling someone! It’s completely different!”

–Actual response I got to that question a few years ago.

Swifties got mad when Tool unseated her at number 1 IN THE MARKETPLACE. I doubt very much that Swifties are gonna care about the distinction.

Yeah but the title makes it sound like it was a threat, rather than just a statement that she is going to lose money as a result of her statement.

Trump is garbage, but the title is garbage too.

This reeks of IN MINECRAFT, though, and we all know how mentally unstable and trigger-happy some in his cult are. This will almost certainly lead to death threats against her, if not actual plots.

everyone on r/conservative are losing their tiny little minds trying to understand why Swift would endorse a candidate who is promising to take more taxes from her. it’s like they literally can’t comprehend being a decent person who cares about and supports her country and fellow human beings, so it MUST be a conspiracy.

These dimwits have so much information available about WWII and still cannot figure out why it is a bad idea electing a bigoted authoritarian wannabe who already did a little insurrection.

I wouldn’t try to paint Swift as a decent person

But economically, the stability that Harris provides is better for the rich than the tax cuts Trump promises

And market predictions back that up

Not a Swiftie by any means but I do remember hearing she paid out fat bonuses to every employee on her tour the other year and it made me think better of her

Its tricky because she also benefits Everytime she does stuff like that. The motivation is suspect. People are wary of american greed for a reason but her story is barely even started so who knows. People grow and change.

If Trump wants to start canceling musicians that don’t support him, then maybe he should stop playing all their music at his rallies

If she always does this, why would she “pay the price” this time and not the previous times?

Conservatives are not serious people. They are profoundly unintelligent, dangerous authoritarians who lack even basic humanity.
