Taylor Swift should remember that Republicans buy her music too


To the editor: Basketball great Michael Jordan once said that “Republicans buy sneakers, too,” so he didn’t make much of his political stance. (“Swift beats Trump with Kamala Harris vote,” Sept. 11)

George Strait, the greatest country western singer of all time, is a conservative, but he keeps his politics to himself. After all, Democrats buy his music, too.

Now pop star Taylor Swift has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president. I'd like to remind Swift that her singing career is a business and that Republicans buy her records, too.

To the editor: The fact that Swift and other influencers have such a large role in deciding the future of our country is terrifying. The fact that so many allow themselves to be influenced is even more terrifying.

To the editor: Does Swift have political “arrogance”? And what about the “need to be in the spotlight” all the time?

She's a pop star who needs to be involved in everything. We can't even watch football without her being mentioned. It's very scary that the smallest thing she does or says is considered the last word.

Is this another “we’re more popular than Jesus” moment? Is this what Swift wants?

To the editor: It must be a big news day for Swift's political endorsement to appear on the front page of the LA Times.
