Back in February, Trump responded to claims that Joe Biden was seeking endorsement from the pop star to swing the next election in a series of strange posts where he claimed he made Swift so much money , and was fond of her boyfriend “ even though he may be a Liberal, and probably can t stand me!
Taylor Swift has announced her endorsement for Vice President Kamala Harris‘ presidential candidacy “ see what she had to say below.
After weeks of silence on the US presidential elections race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, Swift has finally thrown her support for Harris following the two candidates’ debate. Swift’s stance comes just two months ahead of the election.
Swift wrote on an Instagram post today: “I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election. I m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them.”
She continued, sharing her reasoning for supporting Harris: “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.”
Swift also noted that she was recently made aware of the Trump campaign’s use of AI “ which he claims he had no part in “ to falsify her support of the former President and convicted felon’s candidacy: “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.”
The pop megastar also urged fans to do their own research and make their own decisions on who to vote for, while reminding first-time voters to register: “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.”
