Taylor Swift’s political momentTaylor Swift receives award onstage during the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards at Prudential Center on Aug. 26, 2019, in Newark, N.J. (Photo by Bennett Raglin/WireImage)Swift shared the stage with her collaborator and co-executive producer Todrick Hall as she won two awards for her song You Need to Calm Down.Swift brought up the cast of the music video to thank fans for supporting the message of the song, which she said was a world “where we are all treated equally under the law, regardless of who we love, regardless of how we identify.”She noted the video prompted a petition for the Equality Act, legislation that would prohibit discrimination based on gender and sexual orientation.She said the petition “basically just says we all deserve equal rights under the law.”“I want to thank everyone that signed that petition because it now has half a million signatures, which is five times the amount that it would need to warrant a response from the White House,” she continued.She then looked down at an imaginary watch on her wrist and implied that the Trump administration is late and should address the petition.The singer praised the cast of the video.“My cast live their lives so authentically. Thank you for being the example that you are. I love you guys so much,” she concluded. “Thank you, MTV, for lifting up this point in this video. We love you.”I appreciate Taylor Swift’s pretty direct message to the White House during her #VMAs speech. pic.twitter.com/I8wwKbRVmP— Alyssa Bailey (@alyssabailey) August 27, 20193.
