I'm pretty certain Taylor Swift probably has enough sway/numbers to take the White House if she wanted to.
Fuck it, I'd vote for her
I mean, she’s managed her image and business this long. I think politics is a good fit for her skillset.
As is the power she’d wield over the Democrat Party. They would worship the ground she walks on (in an attempt for some of that celebrity to rub off).
…But the election would be gruesomely dirty. I can only imagine all the shit that would get thrown at her.
She has little education beyond high school. The president needs to be better educated than she is.
That probably makes her better educated than the current POTUS.
A democratic leader needs to accurately represent their constituents and surround themselves with knowledgeable experts. No matter how well-schooled someone is, no one person can know everything involved in running a country.
As our Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott once said, "No man is a suppository". Lol.
She’ll have a full cabinet, policy crafted by an army, and practical experience under her belt. She’s clearly charismatic. AFAIK she’s not anti science or conspiratorial or anything… So what if she’s not a Harvard Graduate? As much as I’d like an STEM PhD in the White House, compared to most alternatives, I almost view that as a plus.
And again, she will have so much power. It would be like Trump, where she can swing unpopular stances through sheer force of will (like Trump is doing in the current Middle East visit: https://www.axios.com/2025/05/15/trump-israel-syria-policy-reverse-biden )
None of that matters when the person making the final call knows less about how her job works than most of the voters. We need well educated leaders not people you can be almost certain do not know anything about the subjects needed to govern effectively eg the law, economics, history, diplomacy, and what the various parts of the government do.
We should never select anyone that undereducated. It will always end badly because the leader cannot know what they are doing.
Ehh, I agree in principle but have grown cynical.
The American voters clearly don’t care about actual qualifications. The presidency is an attention contest, pure and simple. Truth is relative. Even if we get a highly qualified president in (and I don’t believe that’s possible anymore) they’re going to be totally beholden to Facebook and Twitter politics memes.
I’d rather have someone that can dominate the narrative and wield actual political power to do decent things, even if their decisions aren’t always the best. Like… who else could bring millions into civic engagement?
That would be hilarious if this tweet is the equivalent of the obama press party joke
imagine being 80 and throwing a footstomping toddler tantrum over a pop star teen idol not voting for you
My dad died at the age of 79. Just sayin'.
Looking forward to opening the most expensive bottle of bubbly that I've ever bought sooner rather than later.
And to add, I'm in Australia, an Australian citizen, although English born. Never hated a person so much. Oh hang on, there was this Maggie Thatcher woman once upon a time.
I was a kid that enjoyed our milk break in my younger years. Such a lovely memory. Oh I grew up on a council estate too. Not exactly the kind of person that Maggie looked after really.
I mean, you have rinehart, and you're also the country that foisted Rupert murdoch on the planet.
She’s still the top grossing concert act, top selling pop star, and considered a style icon. Im fairly positive by most metrics Taylor is still hot.
he called the current leader of syria, an attractive man.
And she’s dating a jock in NFL, unlike Trump’s wife who obviously is after his money, sad.
Let the billionaire class fight each other
How is Trump showing up on Bluesky.
Also… is this real?
I think it's a screenshot my friend
As for if it's real, I'm not gonna visit his cesspool to find out
I’m not a fan of Tay Tay, but I would absolutely love to see her crush Tump Tump. In fact, I would become an instant fan if she does.
Wait till you see his tweet about Bruce Springsteen, he's particularly crazy today
The fucking parentheses comments. I just don't get it, I'm at a complete loss for words. What the fuck is going on in the US?
Almost like attention from Trump is a total buzzkill.
That’s the thing about a pig. You wrestle with it, even if you win, you get dirty.
Doesn't POTUS have more important shit to do like read the daily security briefing?
Some people are just large toddlers...
Isn't she tge biggest star in the world? Does old donny not know who Taylor swift is?
