Though conservatives have long had “Bad Blood” with Taylor Swift over her support of left-leaning candidates and her push for increased voter registration, it appears the artist has managed to piss off a few more factions of the right: Deep state conspiracy theorists and angry football fans.
Shortly after Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, helped lead the Kansas City Chiefs to victory in Sunday’s AFC Championship game against the Baltimore Ravens, several right-wingers, including former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, began questioning whether this win could have been the work of a political … “Mastermind.”
I wonder who’s going to win the Super Bowl next month. And I wonder if there’s a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped-up couple this fall. Just some wild speculation over here, let’s see how it ages over the next 8 months.

“I wonder who’s going to win the Super Bowl next month,” the entrepreneur speculated in a now-viral post.

“I wonder if there’s a major presidential endorsement coming from an artificially culturally propped-up couple this fall,” he continued of this “wild speculation,” urging his followers to “see how it ages over the next 8 months.”
Apparently Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are faking a relationship in coordination with the NFL rigging the Super Bowl just to try to get Biden a meaningless celebrity endorsement.

As fans questioned whether or not Ramaswamy actually believed this far-fetched theory — “Vivek isn’t dumb, he just doesn’t think much of his audience,” observed writer AG Hamilton in a now-viral reply — others hopped on the bandwagon.
“Taylor Swift is going to the Superbowl her first year being drafted. Anyone else think the NFL is rigged?” asked @MS_Sambo_. “Even though the Biden Administration has the US on the brink of WWIII or a Civil War, MSN wants to put Taylor front and center…”
“The Super Bowl halftime show should just be Taylor Swift wearing a Biden 2024 shirt and laughing,” joked @OhNoSheTwitnt.

While the world will just have to wait and see whether or not the Chiefs will nab their third Super Bowl title in four years or whether Swift will endorse Biden yet again, one thing is certain: As @TheAndrewNadeau so aptly put it, “We can’t get free healthcare but perfectly execute a Riddler-esque conspiracy to ruin a football game.”
