“We’ve seen it out of those Republicans who were at the DNC, we’ve seen it out of women who would like to have their own personal lives kept personal, but are forced to go out there cause they nearly died because they can’t get abortion services in a pregnancy,” the Governor of Minnesota continued. “And now you have somebody like Taylor Swift, coming out and making that very clear.”

Walz then gave a shout-out to Taylor’s fans, saying, “This will be the opportunity, Swifties — KamalaHarris.com — get on over there, give us a hand, get things going.”
