Taylor Swift is backing Donald Trump’s newest bid for the White Home, at the least in accordance with the previous president.
Overtly obsessive about the celebrity performer, Trump took to his Reality Social on Sunday to assert the endorsement of Swift.
In response to getting Swift’s supposed surprising seal of approval, Trump declared “I Settle for.” Trump might like the concept of a Swift endorsement, however, like a lot with the ballot sagging candidate, the lengthy sought backing of the Tortured Poets Division songstress is pure fiction.
Whereas a photograph the ex-Celeb Apprentice host posted of a teen carrying an apparently selfmade “Swifties for Trump” t-shirt is actual, an article claiming that Swift followers are turning to Trump after the fear threats that noticed the singer’s Vienna, Austria reveals have been canceled in early August will not be. In truth, the computer-generated photographs on the unique feed of conservative media outlet Amuse blatantly labels the put up as “satire.”
As nicely, an outline of Swift dressed up as Uncle Sam and telling People to vote for the GOP candidate is all AI and pure disinformation:
In a press release to Deadline over Trump’s postings, the previous president’s marketing campaign spokesman Stephen Cheung stated that “Swifties for Trump is an enormous motion that grows larger each single day.” Within the ultimate levels of the European portion of her record-breaking Eras Tour, Swift has not stated something in regards to the Trump postings as of but. The singer is constant her stint at London’s Wembley Stadium tonight and on August 20.
A cookie baking Swift was a supporter of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris within the ultimate weeks of the Covid-19 dampened election of 2020.
This time spherical, Swift has not come out to endorse both the President, who stepped apart from his reelection effort on July 21, or the surging marketing campaign of the Vice President. But, because the numbers within the fan created Swifties for Kamala swell and Swift impressed friendship bracelets are being created for the Democrats’ conference in Chicago this week, hope springs everlasting that the billionaire performer will put her guitar strumming finger on the political scale quickly once more for the Dems – particularly because the VP’s numbers inch forward of Trump in what has been a dramatic however nonetheless very tight race.
In that vein, there have been a variety of rumors and whispers that Swift will reap the benefits of a break in her tour to leap on a airplane to both carry out or just seem on the final night time of the DNC on August 22. Nonetheless, just like the picture of a back-up singer from certainly one of Swift’s current Warsaw, Poland concert events that appeared to point out a waving silhouette of Harris, a DNC go to by the singer to the Windy Metropolis is probably going extra fantasy than truth.
As Trump’s want for the backing of Swift and the Swifties bubbled up once more this weekend, the dimensions of the disinformation swirling across the 2024 election grows. Identical to Trump posted on a pretend Swift endorsement, this previous weekend he additionally posted an AI created picture of Vice President Harris giving a speech with the communist hammer and sickle flag hanging in a Chicago area and an viewers of Maoists standing at consideration earlier than her.
In that fiction round Harris’ ideological leanings, Trump has been joined by the Rupert Murdoch-owned New York Submit. After the VP gave a speech final week outlining her financial proposals, together with controls on worth gouging at supermarkets and extra inexpensive housing incentives, the tabloid blasted her with a entrance web page headline of “KAMUNISM.” The accompanying picture had the Veep at a lectern with a hammer and sickle emblem on it in lieu of the seal of her workplace.
Harris might be giving an actual speech with the true emblem of her workplace on August 22, the final night time of the DNC. Anticipated to endure makes an attempt at counter-programming by Trump and operating mate Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), the Democrats’ return to Chicago begins as we speak with a keynote speech by President Biden and an anticipated full throated and tear crammed tribute to the retiring Commander-in-chief.
