Honestly the NFL boycott is as real to me as the umpteen boycotts they’ve had against Disney, Bud Light, etc. where it’s all performative horse poo poo said online and in the media. Not a single one of them would cancel their flights to their Vegas or Florida vacations upon learning the pilots were women, just like how not a single NFL fan actually stopped watching the games.

Football is bigger than ever and owns something like eight of the top 10 most watched TV events every year. I still hear people say "I can't watch the games because they kneel at the national anthem" despite that being a thing from eight years ago, but they're such a vocal minority they think their little boycott was huge and remains so.

A lot of the people who are "boycotting" Disney aren't even in Disney's target demographic and they started their crusade against the company around when it got extremely clear their movie division was seemingly unlearning how to make anything worth watching. Instead of realizing there was no real interest in that one movie everyone forgot existed immediately after it came out they just kept shouting "GO WOKE GO BROKE" because there was a same sex kiss, which led to a boycott that worked; in their minds, anyway. They can't accept that stuff isn't good and have to hyperfocus on their grievances so they can feel like they have control and power when they are just living in the same world as us where Disney makes a bunch of bad movies.

Imagine taking credit for someone else’s work at your job and your boss comes to you and says, “hey, you’re trying to take credit for this work but it’s very well documented that, not only did you have nothing to do with it, you actively attempted to stop this work from being done. What’s up with that??”

And you just say “i dunno, i don’t remember, that was like a month ago”

Those people were already voting for Trump anyway. There's no scenario where someone is a huge Taylor Swift fan but also a Trump weirdo who suddenly goes "dang, I'd better vote for BIden" when Swift endorses him. Also Swift is probably not going to endorse any political candidate - why would she?

I really do love the implication though that they place so much weight on ENDORSEMENTS that they think Taylor Swift giving one to Biden is the kiss of death for Trump and an unbeatable psyop. They've become so well trained by Trump passing out his holy FULL AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENTS like gold rings or parade candy, that they cannot even comprehend an election running any other way anymore.

That would be fixing problems and making things better. These are antithetical to the Republican idea of "less government is better government". If it fixes something, that's bad, because 'government' did it. They have to vote against it or another shrieking white hot sphere of pure rage will primary them out of their position by calling them a big-government RINO deep state Soros-funded enemy.

Now when it comes time to hand out those checks and sign for the projects to get started that's obviously a good thing because it's going to their own voters, so they'll stand at the ceremonies and cut political ads showing how much they did for their constituents, but they have to vote against that happening in the first place or they lose a primary election.

Make sense yet?

I mean if her or her staff did what they think may have been done, then the investigation is warranted.

If it happens a lot and she's the only one getting pulled into a show for it, then they need to go after everyone. But we don't know that's the case.
