    If Taylor Swift spearheads voter registration drives in swing states and Pennsylvania specifically, the race could be over.

      I don’t imagine most of her fans are of voting age, but the exposure certainly can’t hurt.

      I mean…Trump has a 60-something year old retired wrestler, and a 50-something trashrock star for his celebrity endorsements.

      One seems more significant than the other, especially for women.

            Listen. And understand. Time is out there. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.

        I’m the same age as Taylor and I see at least one of my peers attending her concerts every week on social media. Her reach right now is insane.

          Sure, I get that. I’d just like the obvious sane choice to be made more than a celebrity endorsement. Feels pretty shitty that we’re at this point.

            Our last president was a celebrity, and that’s the second actor we’ve had as president alone. What point are you referring to?

        Taylor is 34 and has been popular for over a decade. There are young fans, but she has millions of fans of voting age

        All of my coworkers are Swifties who attend her concerts and constantly play her music. Most of them are in their 30s and 40s. Her audience isn’t as young as you’d think, she’s been making music for decades now.
