The first presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris took place on Tuesday evening, with many prospective voters tuning in for information on policy, plans and more from both candidates.
It has been a hotly contested election season, to put it mildly, and VP Harris landed a big endorsement at the conclusion of the debate. Pop star Taylor Swift, who had previously endorsed the ticket of Joe Biden and Harris in 2020, took to Instagram to re-up her support for the current Vice President.
In the post, Swift encouraged her fans and followers to research the candidates, referenced former President Trump’s use of unapproved AI images of Swift for his campaign and stated her intention to clear up any misinformation around her stances.
Swift said her reasons for supporting Kamala Harris included the fact that she is a “steady-handed, gifted leader.” The 14-time Grammy winner also praised VP Harris’s selection of Tim Walz as her Vice Presidential pick because he, “has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.”
The The Tortured Poets Department singer then closed with “Childless Cat Lady” under her name, a direct reference to Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance’s repeated comments about the societal group.
Swift closed with another encouragement to learn about the candidates and implored voters to register. She also shared the post to her Instagram story with a link to find how to register to vote.
