(1,430 posts)I think her claim to fame is she tried to cash in on her husbands fame by wearing a bathing suit, but lots of quarterbacks have blond wives so she was nothing special.

(34,959 posts)Maybe she'll console herself in her billion-plus dollars. I'm sure the fact that, unlike him, she's an actual billionaire, galls him as much as her Harris endorsement does.

I was wrong about Taylor's endorsement, she is one very brave person and she will lead an army of young voters to the polls.
TSF feared her and now his fears have become a reality. TSF did all he could to stop this endorsement.
I really, really admire Taylor Swift.

(10,200 posts)So he likes someone much better who nobody would ever have heard of if not for who she married? From what I see, B. Mahomes has no discernible talent other than she posted something pro-Trump.
Taylor Swift meanwhile, is an uber talented singer, writer, producer, etc and all around great entertainer who just might be the most famous person in the world right now. He loved her a couple weeks ago when he stupidly thought she endorsed him (what a moran!!!!) and said positive things about her several times earlier this year including how beautiful she is. But only people who kiss his ass are worthy to him so now she is nothing and her career will tank because she dissed Donald Trump. He may be the most predictable person in human history!!

(8,452 posts)I will never defend the Orange Pile of goo, but his comment is basically saying, "because she endorsed the other person, people will quit supporting her music". Which is a load of shit. Her fans will not make her pay a price "in the marketplace".
Dixie Chicks, the original victims of cancel culture, DID suffer in the marketplace, because the demographic of their fanbase was generally Conservative. And they did pay a price simply because the singer of that band said something like they were ashamed GW Bush was from Texas. THAT. WAS. IT. Totally benign, yet cost them. The same will not happen with Swift.

(1,977 posts)His obsession with Taylor Swift brings to mind reading about that in the Apprentice book.
Variety has an excerpt of it here..

Listen to Donald Trump Gush Over Taylor Swift in Apprentice in Wonderland Audio: I Think Shes Very Beautiful, Actually
By William Earl
Apprentice in Wonderland details many behind-the-scenes stories about Trump while he hosted the popular NBC series and explains how it paved the way to his U.S. presidency. The book recounts Trumps meltdowns on set, an obsession with Debra Messing and much more...
Setoodeh: What do you think about Taylor Swift? One of the most famous people right now.
Trump: Yeah, I think shes beautiful, very beautiful. I find her very beautiful. I think shes liberal. She probably doesnt like Trump, but I hear shes very talented. I think shes very beautiful, actually, unusually beautiful.
Setoodeh: Do you like her music?
Trump: Dont know it well, but she is liberal, or is that just an act?
Setoodeh: Shes liberal.
Trump: Shes legitimately liberal.
Setoodeh: I think so, yeah.
Trump: Its not an act.
Setoodeh: No.
Trump: It surprises me, you know. It surprises me. It surprises me that a country star can be successful being liberal.
Setoodeh: Well, I think shes sort of moved on from country cause now shes more pop.
Trump: I think so. Garth Brooks is liberal.
Setoodeh: Uh huh.
Trump: Explain that, right?
Setoodeh: I dont know how that happened.
Trump: I mean, how did that happen, right? But hes liberal and so, you know, its one of those things. You know, I think shes got a great star quality.
