If you know anything about Twitter, just about any post can go viral.
Tweets about bagels or cookies can get hundreds of thousands of likes. One easy way to get a viral tweet is by commenting on something that is controversial
If you’ve been keeping up with Taylor Swift (shady pun intended) then you know that 2016 was a rocky year for her in terms of losing fans, from her squad to the media. Especially after that Kim and Kanye drama!
She released new music in 2017, dropping her album, Reputation, in November. Ever since she started teasing new music over the summer, she’s been in headlines constantly.
Well, one Twitter user is either a really big Taylor Swift fan or they are a bit of a troll. Meaning, they wanted to stir the pot and see what kind of reactions they could get!
This Twitter user asked everyone to share a “badder bitch” that Taylor Swift
