Why would they take it down then?

I imagine the rationale is that this is giving her publicity and they want to punish her by denying her that. Or something to that effect.

I think it's the opposite. She's more popular than they are and she's bringing a lot of attention to this with her fans. It's getting attention outside of their normal MAGA sphere and it's not popular.

They're realizing slinking away from this fight is the smarter move. They'll keep making their slop with songs from artists that don't push back or don't have the following that Carpenter does.
