Everyone's favorite childless cat lady,softcore movies Taylor Swift, took to Instagram on Sept. 10 to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris after the presidential debate between Harris and former President Donald Trump.

Swift wrote, "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."

This comes after Trump shared AI-generated images of both Swift and her fans on Truth Social, falsely claiming both the Tortured Poets Department singer and Swifties endorsed his campaign for re-election. (Meanwhile, a cohort of Swift fans created Swifties for Kamala to campaign for the Vice President.) Swift addressed Trump's claims, writing, "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."

In recent weeks, pressure has been mounting for Swift to get political following the AI incident and the photograph she took hugging Trump supporter Brittany Mahomes at the U.S. Open.

In 2020, a month before the presidential election, she endorsed President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris in a V Magazine article. She also posted a photo holding Biden Harris 2020 cookies to social media. But in the past couple of years, Swift has reached unprecedented levels of stardom, leading to questions over whether she would risk her career highs to endorse Harris publicly.

Swift first broke her silence on political issues in 2018 when she endorsed Tennessee U.S. Senate candidate Phil Bredesen, calling his opponent Marsha Blackburn "Trump in a wig." Her decision to talk about politics was a major focus of her 2020 documentary, Miss Americana. It shows her, her father, and her team discuss her choice to come out for Bredesen. On the verge of tears she expresses regret that she didn't use her voice against Trump in 2016. "I can't change that...I need to be on the right side of history," she said in the documentary.

She's since posted several Instagram posts about Black Lives Matter, tweeted about her terror after the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and encouraged her followers to vote, resulting in 35,000 new registrations.

Now, she's taken the opportunity to come out against Trump and for the potential first female president, something "The Man" singer can certainly get behind.
