Trump vs Taylor Swift. Compare/contrast
I actually think this would make a good "term paper" topic. Both seem to attract large, dedicated followers for seemingly no reason.
Followers of both Trump and Swift feel they can do no wrong, and that their critics are just out to cut them down.
Both Trump and Swift have narcissistic characteristics - a strong desire to be better than others rather than simply doing a good job. Both seem to seek out "revenge". Swift is less direct, but there is a mountain of bitterness in her lyrics.
Both seem to feed off of praise and large crowds of fans.
Followers of both say they strongly relate to that person's message.
Followers of both have been known to be aggressive towards critics.
The main difference I see is that while her type of music is not my style, Swift is actually quite good at what she wants to do (sell records, be famous). Trump is only good at convincing some people he is a good businessman or President, while not actually delivering.
