The Taylor Swift timing is genius, really

[EarlG]

The pundits framed this debate as, “Harris isn’t well known, she needs to do more to tell people about herself.”

Swift’s endorsement immediately after the debate received something like 3.5 million likes within an hour. Her message is going to reach millions and millions of people who barely have a passing interest in politics. These people really don’t know who Kamala Harris is.

But in the morning they’ll google her, and the stories that come up will all be about how she dominated Trump, alongside video clips of her smacking him down over and over again.

There couldn’t be a more perfect moment for millions of people to suddenly tune in to the presidential race.

1. The timing was fucking unimpeachable and exactly what the fuck the Harris campaign needed after this big WIN

[ArmedLiberal24]

7. Has she sued tRump over the A.I. nonsense?

Have'nt seen any of her latest legal action concerning agent orange73.

[SoFlaBro]

8. I want TS to drop a fucking building of lawyers on that Orange Fuckstain.

[WheelWalker]

2. Timing matters.

[lpbk2713]

3. Young demographic registrations are up.

Not that she's a bubble gummer but her seal of approval will certainly help.

[Jack Valentino]

4. I disagree. It should have taken up an entire news cycle all on its own,

rather than this one, but Taylor isn't a political operative.

Nonetheless, of course I am glad to see the endorsement!

[EarlG]

6. My counterpoint to your argument is that

winning one news cycle is not as important as timing the announcement so that it has the maximum possible impact on the people that it is intended to reach. Millions of previously disinterested people will be taking their first look at Harris tomorrow morning and the headlines are going to be very positive. It’s the perfect time for these people, a majority of whom will be young women, to be introduced to Harris. I note that the campaign just happened to add all their policy proposals to their website a couple of days ago too.

(Your post does make me wonder whether this was coordinated to the extent that if the debate hadn’t gone so well, Swift would have held off in order to make a bigger splash later on…)

10. Knowing Taylor, she definitely coordinated this

She leaves nothing up to chance and carefully thinks about everything she does publicly. I thought about your question too—would she endorse if Kamala had a bad showing.

[NBachers]

11. I agree with EarlG

[Beetwasher.]

13. You Can Bet You're Ass it Was Coordinated!

And I’m thrilled about that! They know really know they’re doing and executing perfectly. I’m incredibly impressed and invigorated by their competence.

[Skittles]

34. excellent assessment and followup

I'm not a "Swiftie" but I appreciate her endorsement.

[MerryBlooms]

14. It was the purrrfect timing. 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

[H2O Man]

9. I agree.

[Beetwasher.]

12. Taylor Swift Election Interference!!!!

LOL. I’m gonna love Dumpy going after Swift AND Kelce!! LOL! Yup, timed and coordinated, you bet, and there’s nothing wrong with strategizing like this, it’s pure political genius!

[Cha]

16. lol... I just read even Lindsey Graham said TSF's

debate "permanence was a Disaster and he should Fire the Prep crew"... That would be Tulsi Gabbard for one.

[Beetwasher.]

17. They should be calling for him to drop out!!!

I mean WTF? He should be hounded like Biden!!!

[Cha]

18. Yeah, "should" being the key

word... But it's a Cult and he's their Sacred Elephant. But YES the US Media Should be for Real!!

I've seen Stupid tee shirts saying they're "Voting for the Felon".. didn't mention "Rapist" though.

[BlueMTexpat]

26. Anothr bonus! eom

[Cha]

28. Big Schadenfreude!

Aloha, BlueMTexpat

[BlueMTexpat]

32. Bonjour, Cha!

Kamala Harris est magnifique!

[Cha]

36. Oui elle est magnifique!

Okay I Googled..

[COL Mustard]

39. Continuity is important

He needs to retain his campaign staff!!!

[Cha]

45. Yes, Please Proceed!

[COL Mustard]

49. As Napoleon reportedly said

When your enemy is self-destructing, don’t lend him a hand.

[Cha]

15. Mahalo for that Inspiring Analysis, EarlG!

[Hekate]

20. Yes indeedy.

[PortTack]

21. Indeed..perfect!

[multigraincracker]

22. Next debate might be with JD.

[Cha]

29. Vance and Gov Walz are debating

Oct 1 on CBS according to google.

[multigraincracker]

35. Who will he debate if tfg drops out?

That was my shot at humor.

[Cha]

37. Oh Sorry.. I kinda wondered. But I wanted to

look it up and see when their debate was.

No way is TSF dropping out... they'd have to carry him out.

[Captain Zero]

40. Walz should campaign in Springfield OH

Talk to some officials about Trumps lies about immigrant crime there and then RIP THEM A NEW Asshole AT HIS DEBATE over their lies.

[Cha]

46. Sounds like a Plan!

[Hamlette]

23. You think it was her timing?

I think they have a calendar of which days endorsements will come from now through late Oct. And by "they" I mean Harris' ppl

[Captain Zero]

41. Joe Biden said it back when Kinzinger

announced his support.

Of course a Reporter framed a question to him like "Are you concerned more Republicans aren't supporting you openly?

Biden replied something like "not yet, look it's along way to the election and I think YOU are going to see some more as we go along".

The Republicans and celebrities are asking the campaign when do you want my endorsement public?

W. Bush is the BIG ONE. It will land like a turd in a punchbowl at MaraLoco.

[Demobrat]

24. I thought the timing was impeccable.

Talk about adding insult to injury. Kicking a guy when he’s down. Delivering the final blow.

It was a thing of beauty to be studied by future generations.

[Cha]

31. coup de grace

[KS Toronado]

25. Love to see Kamala's poll numbers jump to like 60 vs 40 after tonight.

Be a little harder on election night for him to scream that we're cheating.

[johnnyfins]

27. How is TSF going to start his post?

"The failed Taylor Swift"? Bwahahahahahahhahahahah

[True Dough]

30. We'll see if Mango Mussolini

changes his tune about her looks:

Donald Trump Calls Taylor Swift ‘Unusually Beautiful’ but ‘Liberal’ in New ‘Apprentice’ Book

https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/donald-trump-taylor-swift-beautiful-liberal-apprentice-1236030425/

He's such a turd and has no right to judge other people based on superficial things, but that's so typical of him.

[Demobrat]

38. The overrated singer Taylor Swift

who has to bus people in to her concerts my crowds are bigger you know much bigger than Taylor Swift she has to pay people to come to her shows they leave early at her shows my crowds are bigger they don’t leave early at mine.

[Duncanpup]

33. Taylor Swift is a good person

[malaise]

42. Absolutely

Rec

[Beringia]

43. What kind of Voter follows a Pop star

[Johnny2X2X]

44. 8.8M likes and 1.4M reposts on Instagram

I hope she follows it up with support at some rallies.

[Brainfodder]

47. Even if coordinated to the MAX, thanks!

Have the 600 and others been humbled even?

[Prairie_Seagull]

48. Rather coordinated or not, it was brilliant timing.

Like taking a neon pink highlighter to the whole debate.
