Could Taylor Swift tilt Florida blue? It’s Democrats’ wildest dream.
Could Taylor Swift tilt Florida blue? It’s Democrats’ wildest dream.
“People care about her. People understand the importance of her. She is a youth icon," said one Florida Democrat.
“Florida Democrats don’t know why Taylor Swift is naming an upcoming song on her new album ‘Florida!!!’ or the reason she chose to hold three concerts in Miami less than a month before the November elections,” Politico reports.
“But their excitement around the news is less about ‘why?’ and more about leveraging Swift’s celebrity status to fill the blank space for beleaguered voters tired of losing to Republicans.

Meh. Imagine having such a weak political stance that you need to rely on artists to do your political campaigns. The dems need to pick themselves up if they want some real gains, not these half assed attempts.
Imagine having such a fucking weak-minded electorate that some trendy twat (or a career criminal who spray paints his face orange) sways the course of politics.
Yeah. It’s sad honestly
Celebrities have endorsed and platformed for candidates since we’ve been holding elections. This isn’t a sign of a weak campaign. It’s a sign of anything that will help.
Yeah. But claiming that "It's the democrats' wildest dream" makes it sound like they're relying on this shit instead of actually properly going in the offensive and attacking the GOP for the shit they do. The dems just sit around and hope shit falls out of the sky half the time
Nobody said they were relying on it.
Then what the heck are they doing. Because to me it looks like all the democrats are doing is laying a red carpet for republican populist/extremist propaganda all the damn time. They never go in the offensive, they just do weak ass defensive damage control.
