NYT Data: Donald Trump More Popular Than Taylor Swift.

Voters view former President Donald J. Trump more favorably than pop star Taylor Swift, who endorsed the 2024 Democrat Party presidential nominee Kamala Harris after the September 10 presidential debate. According to a survey by Siena College and The New York Times conducted in the immediate days following the debate, only 44 percent of voters view Swift

positively. Meanwhile, 47 percent of voters view former President Trump favorably.Swift is predictably most popular with voters who identify as Democrats, hitting 70 percent. Just 11 percent of Democrats say they view her unfavorably. Among independents, Swift’s favorability rating slides drastically to just 41 percent, while her unfavorable rating jumps to 32 percent. Republican voters are the least likely to view her as favorable, with a rating of just 23 percent. Conversely, 60 percent of Republicans say they view Swift unfavorably.
 
While national Democrats and the Harris campaign have touted Swift’s endorsement for almost two weeks now, it appears that the pop star’s backing has done little to move nationwide and battleground polls. The 2024 presidential race remains essentially a toss-up between Trump and Harris.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
