Taylor Swift is the biggest celebrity on the planet right now.
Democrats have been begging her to get involved in helping Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.
And now Democrats are rejoicing after Taylor Swift finally boosted Kamala Harris in this major way.
Swifties for Harris make an impact
Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign did nothing to dispel the notion it was a DEI effort by running racially segregated Zoom calls, such as “white dudes for Kamala.”
Now, the campaign is branching out into pop culture.
Taylor Swift fans are the latest target.
The campaign organized a “Swifties for Kamala” call that attracted celebrities, tens of thousands of supporters, and raised six figures.
“More than 34,000 people joined the Swifties for Kamala call, raising more than $122,000, according to its organizers. The call featured appearances from singer Carole King and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), a way to win Eras Tour tickets — and plenty of allusions to Swift lyrics,” the Washington Post reported.
It naturally turned into a woke identity politics struggle session.
“I am looking forward to the era of the first woman president,” Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) declared, “Swifties, you can get this done.”
Singer Carole King appeared on the call and sang the chorus of Swift’s hit single, Shake It Off.
“I see her as sort of my musical and songwriting granddaughter,” King said, noting that she was friends with Swift. “We have a lovely relationship, and I’m so proud of her.”
Polls show voter enthusiasm amongst Democrats has surged since the coup against Biden.

Much of Democrats’ enthusiasm came from younger voters who were checked out due to Biden’s age and senility.
This is the Taylor Swift fan demographic.
Will Taylor Swift endorse Kamala Harris
I spoke to @vmagazine about why I’ll be voting for Joe Biden for president. So apt that it’s come out on the night of the VP debate. Gonna be watching and supporting @KamalaHarris by yelling at the tv a lot. And I also have custom cookies 🍪💪😘

Swift endorsed President Joe Biden in 2020.
It’s practically a foregone conclusion that she will endorse Kamala at some point.
But the bigger question is whether or not Swift will appear at any rallies and hold free concerts for Kamala like other musical acts, such as Meagan Three Stallion, already have.
Swifts’ Eras Tour returns to the United States this fall.
It’s not far-fetched to see Swift appearing at a mega rally for Kamala, where Democrats will have loads of ballot drop boxes for the thousands of concert goers to “vote.”
Kamala outsourcing her get-out-of the-vote operations to Taylor Swift would be a perfect fit for a campaign that outsourced every aspect of the candidate’s images to the media and Hollywood.
