George Santos forecasts Taylor Swift’s endorsement mistake
A Playful Jab at Pop and Politics
Over the weekend, former lawmaker George Santos couldn’t resist making a playful jab at pop icon Taylor Swift’s political choices. His light-hearted prediction stirred up Twitter—a realm where celebrity endorsements and political commentary intertwine with the tap of a tweet.
I see @taylorswift13 endorsing @JoeBiden for president. I mean I see how this makes sense since 95% of her songs are about choosing the wrong guy.
I guess we can all expect a Taylor Swift revenge song on Biden in 2025…
🤣🤣🤣

In what appeared to be a lighthearted tone, Santos suggested that the songstress’s track record in love songs might translate to a similar outcome in her presidential endorsements. His tweet teases a future where today’s political backing becomes tomorrow’s chart-topping ‘revenge song’—a quip playing on Swift’s reputation for turning past relationships into musical hits.
Swift’s Political Voice
While Santos jests, Taylor Swift’s voice in politics is anything but laughable. History remembers her 2020 endorsement of Joe Biden over then-incumbent Donald Trump. Swift’s engagement with politics has since broadened, reaching from the online world to real-world activism.
Last year, her appeal to fans sparked an impressive result:
- An influx of 35,252 voter registrations.
- Over 150,000 visits to the registration site.
- A 115% increase in registrations among first-time voters, particularly those aged 18.
The ripple effects of her call to action were undeniable. Yet as the 2024 race inches closer, Swift has kept her political cards close to her chest, withholding any early endorsements.
Santos’s Political Maneuvering
On the flip side of the coin, George Santos himself is navigating the treacherous waters of political endorsements—or the notable absence of them. Despite setting sail as the president of United for Trump during the 2020 campaign, Santos has not extended his support to any candidate for the upcoming presidential race.
After a turbulent exit from Congress, Santos is back on the campaign path, digging his heels into New York’s political landscape. Yet, his campaign sails appear to be lacking the wind of public endorsements as he seeks to reclaim a spot on the ballot.
While Santos’s own political horizon may seem overcast, his Twitter comment mirrors the often tongue-in-cheek nature of political discourse today—a reminder that in the ever-intersecting worlds of pop culture and politics, there’s room for a chorus line or a punchline, depending on the day.
