It's only rock and roll.
And mostly, I like it.
Last week's post-debate endorsement by Taylor Swift of Kamala Harris does not specifically amount to a surprise, but the timing was certainly an insult cherry on top of the injury sundae that was the convicted felon's evening. Not to be outdone, another of rock's queens let her feelings about be known about the possibility of an adjudicated rapist wiinding up in the White House. In case you missed it, Linda Ronstadt is against it.
Which isn't to say that rock and roll as a community has not coalesced in the Harris/Walz camp. The other guys still have Rock in the forom of Kid. And apparently Kanye West, who may or may not be a musician anymore is a MAGAt.
But let's face it: You won't expect to find many of those of the rock set hanging around with a would-be dictator. Sure, you could argue that millionaires would probably benefit from the policies of the potential oligarchy. Some folks wanted to point out how much money Ms. Swift stood to lose because of her choice. Add to that the all-caps post from the former game show host: "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!" I'm not guessing she's going to lose a lot of sleep over it.
Or maybe it's marketing genius. Taylor's never gone bankrupt.
