Vance questioned the influence of the interpreter in the political sphereensuring that “we admire Taylor Swift’s music, but I don’t think that the majority of Americans, whether they are fans of her music or not, would be influenced by a millionaire celebrity who is fundamentally disconnected from the interests and problems of the majority of Americans.”
