BREAKING NEWSTaylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris

Taylor Swift has endorsed Kamala Harris after her debate with Donald Trump, calling the Democratic nominee a steady-handed, gifted leader.

The megastar made her announcement in an Instagram post, which went live minutes after the presidential debate and garned thousands of likes within minutes.

Swift included a photo of her cat, a knock at Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance who mocked childless cat ladies. Harris supporters took the chant to heart and formed groups of cat ladies for Harris. 

The singer said in her post that that she was disturbed by false reports she had endorsed Donald Trump.

I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election, she wrote. 

She signed her post childless cat lady.

Swift has endorsed before. She backed Joe Biden in the 2020 election.  

Like many of you, I watched the debate tonight. If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most. As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country, Swift wrote.

Recently I was made aware that AI of ‘me’ falsely endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential run was posted to his site. It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation. It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth, she added.

She noted that I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.

I’ve done my research, and I’ve made my choice. Your research is all yours to do, and the choice is yours to make. I also want to say, especially to first time voters: Remember that in order to vote, you have to be registered! I also find it’s much easier to vote early. I’ll link where to register and find early voting dates and info in my story, she wrote.

She ended it: With love and hope, Taylor Swift Childless Cat Lady.

She featured her calico cat Benjamin Button. It is her third of three cats.
