Taylor Swift Endorses Kamala Harris, Sparking Celebrity Support and Social Media Frenzy

Pop megastar Taylor Swift has taken a political stand, endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for president. Her Instagram post quickly garnered nearly 9 million likes and support from celebrities including Jennifer Aniston and U.S. basketball star Caitlin Clark.

In the wake of Harris's debate against Republican rival Donald Trump, Swift informed her 283 million followers that Harris and her running mate Tim Walz had her vote in the upcoming election. Swift praised Harris as a 'steady-handed, gifted leader,' capable of leading the nation with calm instead of chaos. Supermodel Karlie Kloss also liked the post.

Swift's endorsement also highlighted her admiration for Walz, the Minnesota governor, for standing up for LGBTQ+ rights and women's autonomy. The Harris-Walz campaign soon introduced Swift-inspired merchandise. However, Trump dismissed Swift's endorsement, labeling her 'very liberal' and suggesting her market appeal might suffer.
