Singer Taylor Swift comes under pressure from Biden and Trump
US President Joe Biden is pursuing an endorsement from global pop superstar Taylor Swift ahead of November’s election, the New York Times has claimed. The Democratic leader’s campaign is reportedly seeking to counter flagging polls that show him trailing likely Republican candidate, Donald Trump.
One influential voice the Democrats again intend to harness is that of Swift, arguably the most famous popstar on the planet. Perhaps more specifically, her 280 million Instagram followers are of significant interest, the report claims.
Swift publicly backed Biden and his vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris in 2020, saying that she would “proudly vote” for the Democratic ticket because “under their leadership, I believe America has a chance to start the healing process it so desperately needs.”
Fox News anchor Jeanine Pirro, a vocal backer of Trump, warned Swift not to “get involved in politics.”
“We don’t want to see you there,” Pirro said on the news network’s ‘The Five’ show. “Joe Biden is in a hole with young people, he knows it. And if he thinks Taylor can get him out of that hole, he’s gonna go for it.”
Trump, though, is also no stranger to leaning on popular culture for support. He has previously boasted of backing from the likes of Kanye West and Kid Rock. The latest polling data shows Trump holding an advantage of between 1 and 5 percentage points over Biden in a head-to-head race.
