Trump Privately Grouses He's 'More Popular' Than Taylor Swift
rollingstone.com

"Behind the scenes, Trump has reacted to the possibility of Biden and Swift teaming up against him this year not with alarm, but with an instant projection of ego. In recent weeks, the former president has told people in his orbit that no amount of A-list celebrity endorsements will save Biden. Trump has also privately claimed that he is ‘more popular’ than Swift is and that he has more committed fans than she does.”

“Last month, the source close to Trump adds, the ex-president commented to some confidants that it “obviously” made no sense that he was not named Time magazine’s 2023 Person of the Year — an honor that went to none other than Swift in December.”

I mean...he is right on the 'more dedicated fans' part. her fans just scream like idiots and buy merch. His kill for him.

I'm not so sure Taylor's fans wouldn't kill for her... but she seems like a decent person, so I'm also not worried about it.

100% can confirm that my peace loving wife would straight up kill someone threatening Taylor.

I bet if Taylor Swift insinuated that someone should die/pay/suffer, I'm confident there would be a few swifties that take it too far, and kill for her. But she's more responsible than Trump to do something like that.
