Taylor Swift has officially endorsed Democratic candidate Kamala Harris for Vice President in the 2024 presidential election.
Swift made the announcement in an Instagram post shortly after the first, and likely only, presidential debate between Harris and Trump on Tuesday night.
“I will be voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz for President in 2024. [Kamala Harris] She is fighting for a right and a cause and I believe it needs a warrior to defend it,” Swift said in the post.
“I believe she is a stable and talented leader and I believe our country can accomplish so much more if it is led with calm rather than chaos,” the post continued. “I am very encouraged and impressed by her choice for running mate.” [Tim Walz]who has stood up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and women’s rights over their own bodies for decades.”
She also urged voters to research the issue and make an informed decision at the polls. The post was signed “Taylor Swift, a childfree cat loving woman,” a reference to past comments made by President Trump’s running mate, J.D. Vance.
Swift’s endorsement comes after Trump shared an AI-generated image last month falsely suggesting he had her endorsement.
