    “Political endorsement can backfire”

    You think she doesn’t know this? Girl stayed as neutral as she possibly could for YEARS.

    Her hand was forced; Trump put her in a position where if she didn’t pick a side, then that would be an implicit but very clear endorsement of him. And as she definitely didn’t want to endorse him… well, the rest is history.

        I assume that’s what they were referencing. Trump has mentioned Taylor several times in the past, and none resulted in a response like this.

        She may not have publicly endorsed anyone if Trump had not retweeted that clearly fake shit implying that Swift was endorsing him. Not responding at all to something so egregious would be seen by many as an implicit endorsement.
