It's a thin thread they can use to attack a potential popular endorsement of Biden.

Some of them are genuine iterations on the existing meme, but the meme primarily exists to dampen her influence on politics.

That's a really dumb interpretation. The people who would think lesser of her for her jet travel are distinctly NOT the people who would've avoided voting for Biden over Trump or any other R.

It's not about choosing a candidate, especially with Taylor. It's about going out to vote or not.

They were fucking terrified that Taylor and Kelce were gonna endorse Biden at the Super Bowl. It's not a coincidence that the jet thing was picked up at the same time.

And they're afraid they were gonna get out the vote for the young, who are notoriously left-leaning non-voters.

I agree, I think it would be pretty foolish to assume there was nobody behind the memes but the people. Here we all are denouncing Swift when she was actually spreading a good message about getting out to vote.
