After Donald Trump has entered the Oval Office like a storm and started systematic dismantling the crooked apparatus they have been using for years to practice identity over the political and cultural circles, Taylor Swift’s response to a chorus of boos at the Super Bowl summed up what some leftists are likely to be thinking.

The much-heralded fresh chanteuse wielded so much affect a year ago that, according to a Monmouth surveys, almost one in five Americans believed she was a part of a serious condition effort to help Old Joe Biden win reelection. The New York Times praised Kamala Harris as “one of America’s most famous pop-culture images” and noted that she had” an massive following across the world” when Swift finally endorsed her. Swift’s support, the Times said, “offers Ms. Harris an unrivaled brand supporter and a great chance of excitement to her plan, particularly with the younger voters she has been trying to attract” . ,
As it turned out, the shot of excitement turned out to be a burn, and by Super Bowl Sunday, Swift didn’t seem to be much of a famous pop-culture symbol at all. The song turned to her chum and singer Ice Spice in the VIP field after being caught off guard by the terrible greeting her reputation, according to The New York Post on Monday. What’s going on?’ The” Fortnight” singer, who was present at the game to support Travis Kelce’s boyfriend, was spotted saying on the scoreboard in response to the cheers.
” What’s going on”? Truly. In three terms, Taylor Swift may have written the gravestone of the left’s social identity. Over the past three months, liberals have been perplexed by how fast their fortunes have deteriorated. According to Rich Lowry,” a battle of professional orders issued by President Donald Trump have taken direct purpose at left-wing social priorities and pillars of the media’s social effect.” Popular liberal ideas that have long been rising, including DEI and gender ideology, have received hammer knocks since Trump’s opening, and there’s more to travel”. Many, much more to come, we hope.

And it has all happened in the a blink of an eye. Trump’s extraordinarily active first three weeks have resulted in more than just Taylor Swift blinking their heads in disbelief and muttering,” What’s going on?” Not very very long before, the public’s crazy ideas, including the conviction that some makeup, a wig, and some hormone shots could convert a man into a woman, were viciously enforced. Donald Trump himself was one of the dissidents on the left’s agenda that the social media giants relentlessly and unapologetically silenced.
Many people who knew better accepted the fact that many of the people who knew better were capable of expressing a quiet resignation, appropriately referring to Rachel Levine as a woman and Elliot Page as a man and making out that the Biden regime’s rogue’s gallery of freaks and psychopaths were competent professionals. Two plus two equals five, and if that meant saying otherwise meant that two plus two equals five, and patriots glumly searched small areas of the Internet where they could affirm the truth while looking for ways to maintain their voice in the larger culture while attempting to appease the left’s unappeasable gods.

However, the left’s cultural hegemony has sunk and started to wane. It began well before Trump’s second administration even took over, but things have grown quickly since. Even Taylor Swift herself could have posed her obscene question before the boos started pouring in at the Super Bowl. Back in Sept. 2024, NBC News reported that” about 47 % of Republicans say they view Swift negatively in a poll conducted days after her presidential endorsement, a sharp uptick from the 26 % who reported viewing her negatively in NBC’s Nov. 2023 poll, the last time she was included in the survey. Just 12 % of Republicans report positive attitudes toward the singer, down from 28 % last year”.
They were just Republicans, which probably meant Swift was only interested in their opinions, but it wasn’t even intended for that to change. Back in Oct. 2020, NBC News said that” Swift has previously stayed out of politics, in fear of isolating her audience”. Yet given the left’s cultural ascendancy, endorsing Biden in 2020 was the safest thing she could have done. The patriotic Swifties were trained in that kind of thing and would have carried it patiently, so she wouldn’t have lost any of her audience in the slightest.  ,

By 2024, however, her endorsement of Harris had little impact, and then there she was on Sunday, getting booed at the Super Bowl. ” What’s going on”? The left is losing its edge, that’s what’s going on. And it’s a glorious thing to see.
