I don't know a whole lot about Taylor Swift, but from what I have heard with her endorsing Kamala and I guess a local candidate in the past, my guess about her politics is that she is left-leaning, but she is at the level of wealth where she personally really doesn't have to worry about it any of it. They completely block abortion access and she or a loved one needs an abortion? Not a problem for her, she can afford to go wherever needed to get one. ICE deporting people? It won't be her. Healthcare prices through the ceiling? Billionaire, not a problem. Economy is shit? Billionaire, not a problem. LGBT rights removed/challenged? Doesn't affect her, because even if she IS secretly queer, she has the money to do what she wants and doesn't have to worry about repercussions. Job losses? Again, doesn't affect her. Being at that level of wealth and power, she doesn't really have a personal stake in politics, and so it's easier for her to overlook the politics of people she is friends with. Whereas if you're in a situation where your life is actively worse because you've lost reproductive rights or health insurance or your job or are worried about being deported or harassed, it's much more difficult to look at someone who supports Trump and say "Oh it's ok it's just a difference of opinion, we can still be friends."

I figure this is how most mega-rich people are. Celebrity or not. Some of them might care, but at the same time, they know these things are never actually going to touch them. They aren't going to be homeless, they aren't going to be deported, they aren't going to die of a treatable disease, they aren't going to go hungry. So even if they are liberal they can tolerate their rightwing friends because they are dealing with politics on a theoretical level instead of a real life level.

"they are dealing with politics on a theoretical level instead of a real life level."
