Donald Trump is trying to brush off the fact that he shared A.I.-generated images of Taylor Swift endorsing his campaign to his Truth Social account earlier this week, now claiming that he doesn’t know “anything about them.”

When is her tour over?

Edit:

It commenced on March 17, 2023, in Glendale, Arizona, and is set to conclude on December 8, 2024, in Vancouver, consisting of 149 shows that span five continents.

Welp, either she changes her mind or it’ll be too late to do anything.

Maybe she just wants to stay out of it. I think that’s responsible since Meal Team 6/Y’all Qaeda attacking her fans is a real possibility.

For sure, her quotes though seemed to Indicate to me that she wanted to voice her opinion but not until she could do it without affecting her tour

I mean, at the same time, I think it’s entirely rational to fear that Trump will attempt to gin up some stochastic terrorism targeted at not only her, but her audience. In that context, how she’s playing it is kinda just the best possible play.

All I am saying is that if she wants to use her platform to encourage voting for Democrats, she cannot do so in time for it to make any difference in the election, if she waits until her tour is over.

Yeah I think this shows her true colors. She could act now, and likely have a genuine impact. But instead “doing this might hurt concert sales so I’ll wait until the end of the tour which oh btw would be after the election tehe”
