Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris for US president
Taylor Swift, the global megastar, made waves on Tuesday by publicly endorsing Kamala Harris for president of the United States. Breaking her usual silence on US politics, Swift expressed her strong support for Harris on Instagram, calling her a “steady-handed and gifted leader.” The Democratic candidate for the 2024 Presidential Election received praise from Swift, who urged her fans—known as Swifties—to vote for Harris, highlighting her dedication to voting rights and other critical issues.
Swift’s post also took a subtle swipe at Republican figures like JD Vance, who had previously insulted Democratic women. With over two million likes, her message encouraged her loyal fans to stay informed, especially in the age of AI-generated images and rampant political misinformation. Swift, who first spoke out against Donald Trump in 2018, continues to use her platform to advocate for Democratic causes, and her endorsement of Harris could have a significant impact on the upcoming election.
