The United States presidential elections are slated to take place in 2024 with current President Joe Biden currently busy planning his re-election campaign. According to some reports, singer-songwriter Taylor Swift is being considered a cornerstone of Biden’s campaign. Swift has a considerable influence on the younger generation of voters, and her endorsement is being viewed as an important asset to Biden’s camp.
However, as the reports of Biden’s campaign relying on Swift’s fame to affect the elections poured on the internet, fans of the singer quickly became alarmed. The Swifties took to social media platforms to voice their opinions of the supposed plan to involve Swift in Bide’s re-election campaign. Moreover, the hilarious fan reactions started a meme fest on social media. Here is what fans are saying about the absurd Taylor Swift-Joe Biden collaboration you did not expect to see.
New Report Indicates Taylor Swift’s Role in Joe Biden’s Election Plan
US President Joe Biden is up for re-election when his term expires later this year in November. Meanwhile, Biden will face competition from former President and Republican Party member Donald Trump. A report from the New York Times revealed some of the planned moves for Biden’s campaign against Trump. The report hinted that Biden was looking at capitalizing on social media and celebrity fame to power his re-election campaign.
Biden is reportedly looking for an endorsement from singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, who has one of the biggest social media presences in the world. An Instagram post from the Blank Space hitmaker caused a surge in new voter registrations in September 2023 with 35,252 new registrations on National Voter Registration Day. As a result, Swift certainly has the power to impact the political space.
In a poll conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies (via Marca), Swift was likely to affect the upcoming elections to a significant degree. As per the poll’s results, 18 percent of voters were likely to vote for a candidate endorsed by Swift. The Twelve-time Grammy Award-winning singer previously endorsed Biden and Kamala Harris during the 2020 Presidential elections. Hence, Biden’s team would be expecting similar support in the upcoming elections.
Swifties Troll Biden’s Election Plan on Social Media
The reports of Taylor Swift’s potential involvement in Biden’s campaign caught the eyes of fans on social media. While it is common for candidates to seek endorsements from celebrities, one aspect of the report from the New York Times drew criticism from fans. The report stated that there were plans for Biden to appear on Swift’s Eras Tour.
Taylor Swift, aka Swifties, could not hold back their amusement over Biden’s plans, which sparked a string of hilarious social media comments. Here is what fans are saying about Biden appearing at Swift’s concert on X.

She's bigger and more popular than a politician, she's the one who should run for it!

The real question is, is it a good strategy for Taylor, not sure…

As the tweets suggest, most fans did not think it was a good idea for Biden to appear at one of Swift’s concerts. Moreover, some fans opined that supporting Biden would not be in Swift’s best interest. At the same time, a section of fans also jokingly suggested that Swift herself could run as presidential candidate.
