Why Taylor Swift's endorsement of Kamala Harris is crucial | DW News

US pop star Taylor Swift endorsed Democratic nominee Kamala Harris for president on Tuesday night in an Instagram post, in a boost to her campaign.

The much awaited endorsement followed the first presidential debate between the sitting vice president and former President and Republican nominee Donald Trump. Swift signed her post "Childless Cat Lady" — a reference to rhetoric used by Trump's running mate JD Vance to describe women who do not have kids.

"I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election," she wrote in the post. "I am voting for Kamala Harris because she fights for the rights and causes I belive need a warrior to champion them." Swift has 238 million followers on Instagram.
