Was Taylor Swift dropped from music services Spotify and iTunes after endorsing two Democrats in the Tennessee midterm elections? No, that's not true: the claim was made up by a liberal satire page on Facebook looking to troll conservatives and Trump supporters into sharing fake news. It is not real.
The story originated from a post with a meme image published on October 9, 2018 by a Facebook page named "America's Last Line Of Defense " (archived here) with following text:
SO MUCH HAPPENS ON HOLIDAYS!!
The caption on the meme read:
In response to Taylor Swift's anti-Republican remarks,
Spotify & iTunes have dropped all of her songs from their playlists.
This will cost her $millions.
However Swift is definitely still available on iTunes and also on Spotify:
Which makes sense since the Facebook page that originally published the meme has an "Info" tab that reads like this:
Info
Nothing on this page is real. It is a collection of the satirical whimsies of liberal trolls masquerading as conservatives. You have been warned.

Use the force and the truth shall reveal itself. Just not here. Ever.
