This conspiracy theory has been circulating in the United States for several weeks. Some supporters of Donald Trump believe that everything that is happening around Swift is connected with the election campaign of Biden. She thinks that all her appearances are related to convincing as many young voters as possible that Biden must win.

Nearly twenty percent of Americans believe the Biden administration is conducting a covert operation with singer Taylor Swift
The Super Bowl victory of the Kansas City Chiefs, in which her current partner Travis Kelce plays, was also part of some kind of conspiracy, they said. He believes that everything is carefully planned and managed by the Biden administration.
Monmouth University researched how many people believe these theories on a sample of 900 people in the two weeks preceding the Super Bowl.
Eighteen percent of people actually think Swift is working with the US government on the campaign, the poll found. Over seventy percent of these believers are Republicans. A large number of them also believe that the 2020 election, in which Biden won against Trump, was rigged.

She is one of the richest and most successful women. A few days ago, she became a record holder when she became the only artist to win four Grammys for best album. Time magazine named her the person of last year. Having Swift on your side in the campaign is definitely a good thing.
After all, even in 2020, Swift supported Biden in his candidacy. The difference, however, is that the mentioned conspiracy theory unequivocally emphasizes that it is some kind of covert operation. This gives people the feeling of something nefarious, a bit manipulative, that it is not a normal expression of support for a candidate. However, nothing of the sort is happening.
So far, Swift has not even indirectly commented on the presidential election. It’s probably too early for that, given that the primaries haven’t even ended yet. Naturally, celebrities also join the supporters of the candidates.
In 2020, in addition to Swift, Biden was also supported by actor Tom Hanks, singer Cardi B, actress Barbara Streisand and actor George Clooney. On the contrary, for Trump there was, for example, the singer Kid Rock, the actor John Voight or Dennis White.
