White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre shook off a question Monday about a potential President Biden-Taylor Swift duet to boost the Democrats 2024 campaign citing federal law to do so.
Let me first say, Ive got to be really mindful Im a federal employee, Jean-Pierre laughingly told CNNs John Berman in response to rumors the 81-year-old could make an appearance at one of the pop icons upcoming Eras Tour dates.
As you know, theres something called the Hatch Act, so I certainly can not speak to anything that is related to 2024 in the upcoming election, Jean-Pierre added notably not denying the whispers.
Obviously, there are a lot of, in my shop, in the press office shop, there are a lot of Swifties, if you will, fans of Taylor Swift, she went on. Im just going to leave it there. Im not going to get into the presidents schedule at all from here, as it relates to the 2024 elections.

I watched the interview on the TV set. The article seems to quote her correctly.

But perhaps she will join Joe at a rally, or the convention?
It would be huuuuuge news, and would likely have a significant impact on the race, especially if she continues her voter registration efforts.

I heard she has a show in Tokyo the night before the Superbowl, and is flying in overnight for the game.
So, I'll presume she has multiple dates in the Pac Rim for a while.
