TL;DR

A Monmouth University survey found that 18% of Americans believe in a conspiracy theory suggesting a covert government effort to use Taylor Swift to help President Biden win re-election. The majority of those who embraced the theory were Republicans, with 83% likely to vote for former President Donald J. Trump in November. This theory also overlapped with 2020 election denial, with 73% of respondents subscribing to both. The speculation arose from Ms. Swift's attendance at the Super Bowl as a fan of the Kansas City Chiefs, prompting anger and wild speculation among online conservatives.
