    Why do people currently give a shit about Taylor Swift’s opinion if they used to be unaware of her?

    The goal is the spread her influence and encourage more Americans to follow her. Particularly women, who are more likely to support Swift and Democrats anyway

    I don’t think any of this, if true, is bad btw. It’s how “free and fair” elections have always worked in the United States, or at least for the past 60 years. And it’s worth it if it means Trump does not win

    Doesn’t mean we should pretend that our government doesn’t regularly do things like this though
