I mean all she does is write songs about picking the wrong people.

Kamala is the right choice for Taylor

u/gd77punk 5d ago

Not sure if you know how on point this is, but it's cutting

I'd also like to note that her endorsement is basically, look what you made me do.

Swift Voted is a play on attack ads against John Kerry. A group called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, put out ads that were lies claiming that John Kerry's combat awards were fake. This became known as "swiftboating."

u/Iron-Octopus 5d ago

And this allowed a draft dodger to prevail over an actual combat veteran.

u/DrDankDankDank 5d ago

I’m still mad about that.

Does this mean boat loving Taylor fans who hate fibbing are Swift Boat Veterans for Truth?

u/TjW0569 5d ago

Given her self-described "cat lady" status, I'd be watching the Swift Voting Veterinarians for Truth.

This is brilliant! And also a reminder I need to mop my floors. Lol

u/Totoro_In_Flow 5d ago

The exact thought I had!

Please don't take this the wrong way - It sounds like a very successful company that sells bidets. 

But great Wordplay, though.

u/martashirt 6d ago

Same! I’m not a tswift fan, but I give her credit for making people register, and remind me to check my voter status. She also gets some points for being a cat person lol

u/Germanofthebored 5d ago

Clean black sweater and a fuzzy cat like that? If she were a real cat person, that sweater would be a fleece. It's all a lie! /s

u/Ihatebeerandpizza 5d ago

Does she eat cats too??

u/martashirt 5d ago

I mean I’m allll for any male or female that “eats” a certain kind of errr ummm “kitty” lmao 😉

u/NoSignificance3817 6d ago

The GOP is making a huge AI-assisted push to purge voters. Make very sure you and yours are registered!

There are houses of conservatives where the liberal voter in the house was the only one purged. It is a targeted push.

u/TennaTelwan 5d ago

Also same! I saw her post on IG with her announcement and promptly checked that I was still registered, which I am, and still am getting an absentee ballot this time too. Then again, I usually either vote early and/or absentee and volunteer that day to help arrange rides for voters.

u/Conscious-Expert1812 5d ago

Imagine a country where people died for a revolution against a king, and a few hundred years later their descendants need to be reminded to register to vote by a celebrity….

u/advertentlyvertical 5d ago

Imagine being the party that supports a felonious rapist traitor and great friend of convicted child sex traffickers for president and still thinking you have any moral leg to stand on.

u/Conscious-Expert1812 5d ago

I think you missed the point! Now get to the ballot box and do as the corporations say! And don’t forget to use your credit card when purchasing from Amazon! The corporations LOVE democrats!!! Credit cards, amazon deliveries, and celebrities!!! Down with those billionaires….oh wait…

u/jlharper 5d ago

You’ll already be registered to vote if you’ve ever voted in the past.

u/GT-FractalxNeo 5d ago

Many Republican districts unregister their voters. It's always worth double checking.
