‘Swiftie’ VP Pick? Kamala Harris’ Strategy May Involve Taylor Swift, And It Could Affect the Entire Election

The article discusses the excitement among Taylor Swift fans, known as ⁤”Swifties,” regarding⁤ Vice President Kamala Harris’s selection of‍ Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her ‍running mate. Many fans are delighted because Walz is a‍ noted admirer of Swift, having ⁣previously ⁤designated June 23 and June 24, 2023, as “Taylor ⁣Swift Days” in Minnesota.‍ Walz also introduced a law, dubbed​ the “Taylor Swift bill,” aimed at regulating ticket reselling to ⁣protect fans. Social media ‍reactions have been positive, with users expressing enthusiasm over having a “Swiftie dad” as a VP pick. However, there are questions about whether this‌ celebrity connection can​ significantly influence ​the current political landscape, especially in light of pressing national issues like ‍inflation and crime rates. The article ⁢highlights the broader context of celebrity endorsements⁢ in politics and raises doubts about their effectiveness amid significant public ‌concerns.


Some Taylor Swift fans are thrilled that Vice President Kamala Harris chose Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate because the 60-year-old father of two apparently loves the liberal pop star.

After the announcement on Tuesday, Swift fans — known as “Swifties — d social media posts that Walz had made about their beloved icon.

Last year, the left-wing governor proclaimed June 23 and June 24, 2023, as “Taylor Swift Days” in Minnesota.

In November 2022, Walz lamented that he was unable to purchase tickets for Swift’s “Era” world tour.

So in May of this year, the governor enacted the so-called “Taylor Swift bill,” which bans resellers from selling more than one copy of a ticket and requires them to disclose all fees upfront.

The law only applies to events held in Minnesota.

After Walz’s pro-Swift social media posts surfaced, her fans squealed with delight over Harris‘ VP pick.

It’s not certain if Walz’s past fawning will compel Swift to endorse Harris. So far, she hasn’t endorsed any presidential candidate in this election cycle.

However, in 2020, the liberal entertainer endorsed then-candidate Joe Biden.

It’s unclear whether Harris’ decision to select Walz as her running mate will bolster her campaign, since the person who actually won the Democratic nomination was kicked to the curb just 17 days ago.

Another question is, does any celebrity have enough star power to move the needle when the nation is being ravaged by crushing inflation, an unprecedented border crisis and skyrocketing crime?

For reference, the U.S. Army is now trying to recoup some of its $11 million after it partnered with the United Football League and paid Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to write Instagram posts encouraging his 396 million followers to enlist, Military.com reported.

When all was said and done, not a single person enlisted.

As Americans struggle to pay for groceries and worry about terrifying crime waves, does anyone really care what some celebrity thinks about anything?

For this reason, former President Donald Trump must focus on “kitchen-table” issues that affect everyday Americans and not get sidelined by Democratic race-baiting or other stunts that attempt to distract voters.
