Taylor Swift & Trump: A political tale more tangled than anything anyone’s talking about

Will Taylor Swift end 2024 as triumphantly as she began it — by tipping the presidential election? Frida Ghitis: Swift’s politics are simply too ordinary to make her a force for change.

She's the most famous woman in America today because, perhaps uniquely, she combines antithetical dreams and aspirations, Ghitis says.

Ghitis asks: What happens when the two halves of Swiftism , feminist and feminine, are pulled apart by progressives?.

Across the developed world, women are moving left while men are going right. But it’s hard to see a place for the well-defined femininity of Taylor Swift in the future progressives are building. For now, the Swifties lean left — tomorrow , when the consequences of progressive politics sink in, they may come to a new appreciation for the right.
