‘Pipe Bomb Barbie’ Marjorie Taylor Greene isn’t the only Republican terrified of Taylor Swift

The unleashed might of Taylor Alison Swift could change the shape of American politics forever. At least, that’s what Republicans are increasingly afraid of. The right side of the U.S. political aisle is experiencing growing concern that a Taylor Swift endorsement could stop their top candidate in his tracks as campaigns for the country’s next president ramp up.

Majorie Taylor Greene, in between dodging claims about her involvement with the Jan. 6 insurrection, is most certainly among them. She’s less pressed than former President Donald Trump, who reportedly insists he’s “more popular” than the mega-star, but Greene is still doing everything she can to draw a divide between herself and one of the most awarded musicians in history.

That’s even as Marj continues to grapple with ongoing conspiracy theories about her status as “propensity for absurd conspiracy theories, it’s also somewhat ironic that she finds herself in the midst of one.

It’s also ironic that, even as the Republican party boosts Lauren Boebert as its own personal T-Swift, those on the right are working to drag ignore her influence and even try to convince Swift to jump ship and the conservative movement.

Just like Greene, who — unwilling to take a hard stance against one of the most influential stars on the planet — is still working to create distance between herself and Swift. When asked recently about the ongoing Swift/Kelce conversation, Greene noted that she could “really care less” about Swift and Kelce, and noted that she just watches football for the game. Sure Marj, we believe you. Just like the rest of her Republican colleagues, she’s likely scared of the influence Swift could have on the election and doesn’t want her within a mile of the political sphere.

Swift rarely makes politics a talking point, but she’s previously espoused liberal ideals. She isn’t a fan of telling her followers what to do or how to vote, but she adamantly encourages them to go out and vote for their chosen candidate. If they shift toward the left due to their queen’s own political leanings, that’s their own choice.
