Swift, 34, officially endorsed Harris, 59, in the presidential race onInstagramon Tuesday, Sept. 10. The move was done shortly after Harris and Trumpwrapped their first debate.

“Like many of you, I watched the debate tonight,” the singer began the caption of her post, which included a photo of herself holding a cat. “If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most. As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country.”

Without commenting on Trump’s politics, Swift went on to write, “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.”

Swift continued, “I’ve done my research, and I’ve made my choice. Your research is all yours to do, and the choice is yours to make. 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.”

Trumpresponded to Swift’s endorsementthe following day during an interview withFox & Friends.

“I was not a Taylor Swift fan,” he said on the show. “It was just a question of time. … But she’s a very liberal person. She seems to always endorse a Democrat. And she’ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace.”
