Personality of the year 2023 for Time magazine, crowned at the last Grammy Awards as the artist who has won the prestigious award for best album of the year the most times (four in total), Taylor Swift has become an essential personality at the United States and each of its possible positions are closely scrutinized, eight months before a probable revenge between the Democrat Joe Biden and the Republican Donald Trump.

In September, she published a message on Instagram inviting her subscribers to go to the Vote.org platform to register on the electoral lists. The organization recorded more than 35,000 new registrations that day, a jump of 23% compared to the same day a year earlier.

But the singer, who has become a feminist icon for her fans, has often been reluctant to speak out in favor of one side. She was thus widely criticized by Democrats for not having openly supported Hillary Clinton once morest Donald Trump in 2016.

After years of caution, Taylor Swift came out of the woods for the first time in 2018, sponsoring a Democrat once morest a Republican senator with very conservative positions in the state of Tennessee, where the singer spent her youth.

In 2020, Taylor Swift officially announced her support for Joe Biden once morest then-President Donald Trump, accusing the Republican of having “fanned the flames of white supremacism and racism throughout (his) mandate.”
