THE INTERNETS. (THECOUNT) — A viral video circulating online features a woman voicing her frustration with Taylor Swift following the pop star’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential race. The woman, who claims to have purchased three tickets to Swift’s Toronto concert in November as a gift for her daughter’s 13th birthday, is now reconsidering attending due to Swift’s political stance.
The woman criticizes Swift for her quick endorsement of Harris after Tuesday night’s debate against Donald Trump, suggesting the singer didn’t approach the debate with an open mind. According to the video, the fan believes that Swift, as a billionaire, is out of touch with the economic struggles faced by working-class Americans. She accuses Harris of policies that will worsen the economy and expresses concern that Swift’s focus is only on issues like LGBTQ+ rights and abortion access.
The woman in the viral clip goes on to criticize Swift for what she perceives as a lack of consideration for the struggles of everyday working Americans. She argues that, as a billionaire, Swift is far removed from the financial hardships many people face, including losing their homes, jobs, and businesses. According to the woman, Swift’s immense wealth allows her to remain insulated from the economic realities that affect average citizens, leading her to endorse political candidates like Kamala Harris without fully understanding the impact on the working class.
The woman further expresses concerns that Harris’s policies will continue to harm the economy, suggesting that the vice president is out of touch with the needs of struggling families. She believes that Harris’s platform, which Swift publicly supports, could lead to more economic difficulties for Americans already grappling with high inflation and job insecurity. The fan’s argument highlights the growing political divide between wealthy public figures and the working class, accusing Swift of being disconnected from the very people she claims to support.
The disgruntled fan also calls Swift’s Christian faith into question, claiming that supporting abortion rights contradicts Christian values. She goes on to say that she’s selling her concert tickets because she doesn’t want to support Swift financially or send the wrong message to her daughter regarding abortion.
Reactions to the video have been divided along political lines, with some conservatives applauding the woman’s stance, while many liberals have mocked her for the contradiction of buying expensive concert tickets while criticizing the economy.
Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris, which she made clear in a social media post following the debate, has sparked a significant reaction from her fanbase, indicating that not all Swifties are happy with the singer’s political involvement.
