Is this Taylor Swift “paying the price” for taking a stand? Because it kind of seems like her fans being punished by parents with whacked out priorities.
A mom is going viral for her attack on the Blank Space artist. In retaliation for her endorsement of Kamala Harris — something we thought was a very measured, reasonable explanation of her views — this woman is going apes**t!
The woman claimed in her video to be a mother of a 13-year-old Tay superfan. But the Donald Trump fan said instead of taking her daughter to the very special Eras Tour show in November, she would be selling the tickets out from under the poor kid! She proudly jabbed at the pop star:
“I have three tickets for the Toronto show November 15 that I was going to take my 13-year-old, she turns 13 that day. It was going to be a special gift because she’s been a Taylor Swift fan forever. I was going to take her to this concert, but now my tickets are up for sale. Because I don’t want to spend another dollar supporting you and your private planes and your non-Christian beliefs.”
Oof. This is so sad for this little girl! WTF?? What’s this lady’s problem? Well…

First, she said Taylor clearly didn’t have an open mind going into the debate — since she had her full response ready to go the instant it was over. Well, to be fair, it’s not like Trump is an unknown quantity. Why should she have gone into the debate with a blank slate, Trump was convicted of fraud, found legally liable for sexual abuse, impeached for blackmailing Ukraine, barred from running charity, etc etc etc long before the debate. The fact Taylor even waited until after the debate to release it shows she at least waited to see if her previous assessment was confirmed. Right?
She added:
“Kamala lied to everyone on that stage. And those of us that know, know.”
WTF does that even mean?
She also said Taylor should shut up because she’s a “billionaire” and therefore clearly out of touch, with no idea about economics for regular people. We mean, sure, who would back the opinions of a billionaire celebrity with a private jet?
The mom’s main attack seemed to be about Taylor saying she was in favor of LGBTQ+ rights and women’s reproductive rights. Or, as this compassionate scholar put it, “killing babies.”
It’s funny how progressives and Democrats are always the ones blamed for being exclusionary and divisive, but look at how toxic this is! She’s taking away her daughter’s special gift, probably the thing that would have made her year, and throwing it away because Trump — that paragon of Christian values — has convinced her anyone who disagrees is THE ENEMY.
But who’s getting hurt? Not some enemy. A 13-year-old kid.
Not only is the poor girl not going to the concert, she’s getting the concert put in front of her and then snatched away. And that’s even worse! That kid is going to be scarred. This sucks, lady.
