MAGA style politics has already infiltrated places like Alberta and Saskatchewan, and it’ll only continue to get worse if the orange s*** stain is re-elected. These are scary times.

Especially if we get a Trump bootlicker in office here in Canada, in Pierre.

How long until they launch their own MAGA football league/grift?

- stand for the anthem
- no DEI
- no woke sponsors
- only (true) female cheerleaders

What am I missing?


Edit: Oh yeah, only snapping from the shotgun allowed (sponsored by the NRA), as going under center is kinda gay and that would equate to grooming.

This is absolutely hilarious!

Donald Trump Reportedly Tells People Close To Him That He's Bigger Than Taylor Swift

Donald Trump’s habit of spreading falsehoods is getting even more extreme.

Now, he’s reportedly claiming he’s more popular than Taylor Swift, according to Rolling Stone.

Trump sources told the magazine that they realize Swift will probably endorse Joe Biden’s reelection since she supported him during the 2020 election.

But Trump is telling people close to him that he doesn’t think Swift’s support will help Biden’s chances, with Rolling Stone reporting that “the former president has told people in his orbit that no amount of A-list celebrity endorsements will save Biden.”

Trump has also reportedly said that he is actually “more popular” than Swift and that his fans are more committed than hers. Consequently, the magazine said he was reportedly bothered when Time magazine picked the singer over him as its Person of the Year, telling confidants it “obviously” made no sense.

This is true, but it is for all the wrong reasons.

1. Swift is going to appear at a concernt in Japan then jet to the game. Because she crosses the date line RWNJs won't understand how she could possibly be in two places that fast (or even backwards in time possibly) and declare her to be a body double or hologram.

2. Nancy Pelosi is a huge SFG fan. No doubt she will be there (probably also Gavin Newsome). Swift will be there for KC. RWNJs will not be able to cheer for either team.

Haven’t you heard? They’ve abandoned the NFL for rigging the Super Bowl for KC.

Can't wait for a rapist to be president again.

He won't be. I will bet money on it.

I don't know what will happen, but I do know that the Democrats going with status Joe is the worst idea possible.

Taylor apparently has more twitter followers than Trump, but I also have to wonder how many people follow Trump just to see what he says.

The Orange Dictator and his orcs would do wise not to start a fight with Swifties. It might not work out for him.

Business Insider: Donald Trump will not win a war against the Swifties

Should he go after her, it may be the biggest mistake of his 2024 campaign thus far, needlessly injecting himself into negative discourse with little perceivable way of succeeding.

That is, of course, because Swift's committed fan base is just as — if not more — supportive of her than the MAGA movement is of him.

Her following also appears to be even larger in the US than Trump's.

A Morning Consult survey from March 2023 estimated that 53% of US adults consider themselves Swift fans, an astoundingly large support base.

To put that into perspective, the 2020 US Census found there are around 258.3 million adults in the country. If that and the aforementioned survey are correct, that means there are nearly 137 million voting-age Swift supporters situated across the US, or approximately 60% of the total number of votes cast in the 2020 presidential election for either Biden or Trump.

Yeah, they're just as brain washed in the detatched, soothing delusion that cult of personality offers.

Holy ####ing hell.

I've never been so happy to be in the minority. That's also disturbingly high for any singular artist. I doubt you could get 53% of people to agree on the same musical genre, much less an artist.

Wow isn't it sad how the media and rag pieces like Business Insider keep distracting everyone from actual election time issues.

[Ozy_Flame]

Welp, politics was already a Frankenstein of celebrity cultism created by Trump, it would stand to reason more celebrity obsessions would impact the same domain.

And it may be sad, but it's reality. Can't turn a blind eye.

You new to politics? People don’t pay attention to the issues anymore. Media just goes with the flow now.
