PA GOP, Independents sour on Taylor Swift, turn to Trump after Kamala endorsement

According to the New York Post, around 61 percent of Pennsylvania Republicans do not approve of the pop star while only 16 percent of them do. Independents fair a little better in the signer's favor, but not by much, as only 23 percent of them in the Keystone state approve of Swift while 45 percent disapprove. Swift waded into the presidential campaign last month when she said she would endorse Harris for the White House.

Additionally, the Democratic National Committee has launched a Swift-themed "I will vote" campaign in order to reach younger voters, a bloc that often does not make it to the polls in high numbers. Church attendees also do not approve of Swift; only 29 percent of them are fans of the artist while 48 percent disapprove. Among white voters overall, she has a 35 percent approval and a 40 percent disapproval rating.

The poor approval in the wake of the left-leaning endorsement seems like something a round of "Shake it Off" would not be able to shake up enough. Swift said she is voting for Harris “because she fights for the rights and causes, I believe need a warrior to champion them” — “a steady-handed, gifted leader."

Swift also commented on Walz at the time of the endorsement that she is "so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate Tim Walz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades."

In the case of Trump, however, the GOP nominee leads with independents 37 to 32 percent, with around 24 percent undecided, and is leading the way with members of the Republican Party.

To add insult to injury, the endorsement did not even appear to help Harris, polling revealed. Only eight percent of respondents to a YouGov poll right after said they were more likely to vote for the Democratic nominee while 20 percent said they were less likely to vote for Harris because of Swift's endorsement.
