The forces believed to be manipulating America’s corrupt political establishment seem unscrupulous in their approach to voters, whom they apparently detest. President Joe Biden’s reportedly struggling re-election campaign is banking on securing an endorsement from pop megastar Taylor Swift, hoping to ride on her popularity to victory in the 2024 presidential election. Despite Swift’s endorsement in 2020, the Biden campaign’s current focus on her suggests a twofold revelation.
Firstly, it signals a notable desperation stemming from the president’s declining poll numbers, with averages indicating that former President Donald Trump consistently leads Biden nationwide. Polls also highlight issues like inflation and immigration contributing to Biden’s considerable disapproval ratings. Secondly, it underscores an attitude toward the electorate that can be characterized as extreme condescension or worse.
Biden’s approval ratings, as per various polls, paint a grim picture. A December Monmouth poll placed his approval at a mere 34 percent, representing an all-time low in that survey. Disapproval numbers were notably high, driven by concerns such as inflation and immigration. A Pew Research poll in the subsequent month reflected a 33 percent approval rating, with 65 percent disapproval. Notably, disapproval ratings were consistent across ethnic affiliations, indicating widespread dissatisfaction.
Even among traditionally Democratic-leaning groups, such as blacks, the disapproval rating was significant (48-49). Only those with postgraduate credentials gave the president narrowly favorable marks, emphasizing the skepticism prevalent even among educated voters. Gen Z respondents, aged 18 to 29, expressed substantial disapproval, with only a 27 percent approval rating for President Biden.
The Biden campaign’s interest in securing Swift’s endorsement is seen as a response to these challenges. However, there is an additional layer to their desperation, as highlighted by former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. He suggested a conspiracy theory linking Swift’s romantic relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce to a potential major presidential endorsement. Ramaswamy speculated on the Super Bowl outcome and the influence of a culturally propped-up couple.
The relationship between Swift and Kelce, coupled with Kelce’s role as a spokesman for Pfizer and the anticipation of a Chiefs victory in the Super Bowl, has prompted insinuations about potential manipulation by powerful individuals. While such speculations may seem extreme, they reflect a broader distrust in the establishment’s actions, given instances like leaving borders undefended, involvement in international affairs, and manipulating narratives during elections.
Millions of Americans, as per the author, have become aware of what they perceive as the establishment-backed Biden regime’s tyranny, leading to the campaign’s desperation to change the narrative. The narrative change involves resorting to celebrity endorsements, with Swift as a prominent figure. Critics argue that Biden, having aligned himself with open-borders globalists and climate activists, is in need of a gimmick, and Swift fits the bill.
Reports suggest that the Biden campaign is aiming for a celebrity-focused re-election bid, with Swift’s potential endorsement labeled as the “end game.” Critics condemn this strategy as cynical, manipulative, and misguided. A Newsweek poll of 1,500 eligible voters indicated mixed reactions to a Swift endorsement, with 18 percent stating it would make them more likely to vote for her preferred candidate, while 17 percent claimed the opposite effect.
Experts have commented on the growing influence of celebrity power in elections, attributing it to media and social media becoming central to people’s lives. However, the condescending attitude of elites toward younger voters, as exemplified by such strategies, raises questions about the effectiveness of celebrity endorsements.
