Moments after the end of the first presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, Taylor Swift issued her endorsement.

“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election,” Swift wrote in a post on Instagram. “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,” Swift added, signing the post “Childless Cat Lady,” a clear dig at Ohio Sen. JD Vance, Trump’s running mate.

Are we surprised? No. Swift has made her political leanings clear, much to the disappointment of some of her fans. In fact, Swift may have clearer political views on some issues than the candidate she endorsed.

Asked why she had changed policy positions on issues like fracking, a buy-back program for assault weapons, and decriminalizing the border, Harris either could not, or would not answer during Tuesday night’s ABC debate.

“I know you say that your values have not changed, so then why have so many of your policy positions changed?,” ABC’s Linsey Davis asked Harris.

“So, my values have not changed,” Harris began. “I’m going to discuss ever one, at least ever point that you’ve made,” she said, before going on to say she would not ban fracking, and then discussing her views on the economy and protecting the vulnerable, social security, and medicare.

“My values have not changed,” Harris said again, without addressing her change is policy on the border or assault weapons.

Trump spent much of the ABC debate on the defensive, appearing to take the bait in nearly every trap Harris laid for him, from his father’s success as a businessman to the size of his campaign rallies.
