Akayla Gardner: Most Experts Say Celebrity Endorsements Don’t Make Much Difference, Unless It’s from Someone Like Beyonce or Taylor Swift

RUSH EXCERPT:
GARDNER: "Democrats finally got their Beyonce moment last night in Houston, Texas. Most experts will tell that you celebrity endorsements don’t typically make that much of a difference. If they would, it would be from someone like Beyonce, like Taylor Swift who have now both endorsed vice president Harris. And much earlier than I think many people expected. Beyonce didn’t endorse Joe Biden in 2020 until November. So now here are these two people with huge fan bases behind her. And something that Beyonce talked going was unity. She talked about the historic nature of vice president Harris’s candidacy as the first woman of color. And she talked about freedom, really the point of that rally last night. Highlighting Texas’s very strict abortion ban. And they had people, some of whom are in vice president’s ads who have these really heartbreaking experiences where they needed emergency care. In some places, people died if not serious consequences. They feel it is an example they can use on the trail."
