Trump believes it won’t matter if Taylor Swift endorses Biden because he is ‘more popular’ than megastar – as MAGA machine declares a preemptive ‘holy war’ on star in case she backs Democrat president

Donald Trump has told aides it doesn’t matter if Taylor Swift supports Joe Biden – because he’s “more popular” than them anyway.

The 77-year-old commented on reports that the pop megastar was preparing to endorse Biden, and that Biden’s campaign was desperate for her to appear on stage with the president at a rally. Swift endorsed Biden in 2020.

He is said to believe even the pop megastar won’t be able to rob him of a victory in November, despite Dems hoping Swift could dramatically sway the vote.

The New York Times reported Monday that Swift is a key name on Biden aides’ “wish lists of potential surrogates.”

Trump too, according to Rolling stonesaid it was wrong for Swift to be named Time magazine’s Person of the Year in December 2023 because the award “clearly” should have gone to him.

Swift’s political influence is sought after by all parties, but for years she remained openly neutral.

She was born in Pennsylvania, but moved to Nashville as a young girl to pursue music. Initially, she was loathe to say anything that would alienate her traditionally Republican country music fan base.

But in 2018, she spoke out against Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn, saying her voting record “dismays and frightens me.”

Trump – who called her “fantastic” and “amazing” in 2012 – was angered by Swift’s comments.

“You know, Marsha Blackburn is doing very well in Tennessee, she’s leading substantially now,” Trump said. ‘She’s a wonderful woman.

“I’m sure Taylor Swift doesn’t know anything about her. And let’s just say I like Taylor’s music about 25 percent less now.”

Swift subsequently endorsed Biden, and last year a single Instagram post of hers led to 35,000 new voter registrations.

A poll this month from Redfield & Wilton Strategies found that 18 percent of voters said they were “more likely” or “significantly more likely” to vote for a candidate supported by Swift.

A source close to Trump told Rolling Stone that MAGA insiders were preparing to launch a “holy war” against the 34-year-old.

The prospect of Swift endorsing Biden again has conservative commentators confused: Chris Cillizza, a political commentator for CNN until 2022, posted a video of Fox News hosts expressing anger and concern about the idea, writing: “They are really scared of Taylor Swift, aren’t you?’

In the clip, Judge Jeanine told Swift to stay out of politics, saying, “We don’t want to see you there.”

Tomi Lahren implored her to “stick to the music,” while Maria Bartiromo asked what her positions were on foreign or economic policy. One guest says Swift is “basically Biden’s vice president.”

Still, Trump campaign senior adviser Jason Miller downplayed the importance of a Swift endorsement.

“Joe Biden may be counting on Taylor Swift to save him, but voters look at these sky-high inflation numbers and say, ‘We’re never getting back together,’” Miller said.

Megyn Kelly criticized conservatives on Tuesday for worrying that Swift would influence the 2024 presidential election.

Kelly has previously criticized Swift for refusing to laugh at a joke aimed at her during the Golden Globes and for attending a comedy show to benefit pro-Palestinian charities.

However, recent reports that the Biden campaign has a nod from the singer at the top of their 2024 endorsement list have led some conservatives to believe she will brainwash Americans into voting Democratic.

Kelly labeled it a conspiracy theory, noting that “people on the right that I like and respect are pushing this.”

‘I don’t know why people are so afraid of her. She has power, she has influence, she told people to vote and about 35,000 of them did. But registering to vote is not the same as actually voting,” she said on The Megyn Kelly Show.

She noted that other celebrities, such as George Clooney, have pushed for candidates in the past and been unsuccessful.

Kelly did admit that Swift would likely lean left in 2024 — as she did publicly in 2020 — just like her Pfizer and Bud Light pitchman friend Kelce, but that it didn’t matter.

‘Why do people live in fear of this?’ she wondered, noting that she “doesn’t happen to be among the ‘vast majority of people’ who find Swift interesting.”

“If she’s smart, she’ll stay apolitical, which is better for her,” Kelly said.

“She won’t be the most popular person in America if she continues to antagonize half the country that votes Republican, but whatever.”
