TAYLOR Swift is ready to back Kamala Harris for the White House, The U.S. Sun understands.
A source close to the superstar singer, 34, claims she will publicly champion Harris in the battle against Donald Trump this November, around “four to six weeks” before the election.
The Cruel Summer singer has a track record of backing the Democratic Party[/caption]President Joe Biden‘s team was desperate to enlist Taylor‘s help when his campaign began to falter earlier this summer.
Taylor backed him in 2020 when he ended Trump’s four-year reign in Washington DC.
The insider claims Taylor is “excited” about the prospect of Harris becoming the first female president in United States history.
The Eras superstar was “very happy” when she succeeded Biden after he pulled out of the race, the sources exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
“Taylor got enthusiastic when Kamala Harris got named VP in 2020, to see a woman getting at such a high political position and being the vice president of Joe Biden, it was massive, and she was happy about it, “the source told The U.S. Sun.
“She was happy to endorse the Biden-Harris duo four years ago.
“Now that Harris is running for president, Taylor is even more excited about the possibility of having Kamala Harris being the next president of the United States of America.”
Taylor sees Kamala as a strong woman, someone who unites people.

Speculation has been rife about when Taylor, who has just finished the European leg of her blockbuster Eras tour, would become involved in this year’s election.
She knows the power of her fame can potentially influence millions, and she is happy to support the Harris and VP Tim Walz ticket.
“Taylor sees Kamala as a strong woman, someone who unites people, who is going to do her best to solve issues that the people have, and who does great running the country,” added the source, who is close to Taylor’s team.
“She will endorse Kamala Harris, and the announcement should be made soon, probably 6 to 4 weeks before the election day.”
The U.S. Sun contacted Taylor’s representatives but has yet to hear back.
DNC highlights…
Taylor’s influence over millions of her fans could help the Democrats.
For example, if some Swifties are voters who remain unsure of their political allegiances, Harris could emerge triumphant on November 5.
Taylor has publicly entered the political discourse in the past.
In 2018, she publicly endorsed Democrat Phil Bredesen for Senate and Jim Cooper for House in Tennessee.
At the time, Taylor called Bredesen’s Republican opponent, Marsha Blackburn, a “Trump in a wig.”
In 2022, the singer ripped the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
“I’m absolutely terrified that this is where we are – that after so many decades of people fighting for women’s rights to their own bodies, today’s decision has stripped us of that,” Taylor wrote on X at the time.
Taylor Swift is gearing up to throw her support behind Kamala Harris and Tim Walz's campaign, a source exclusively disclosed to The U.S. Sun.
The pop superstar has been keeping fans guessing as to who she will endorse in the upcoming November election. But, now, The U.S Sun has learned Taylor will endorse Harris “4 to 6 weeks” before election day.
Taylor Swift’s ties to Democrats:
In 2020, Taylor snapped at then-President Trump after he called George Floyd protestors in Minnesota “thugs” and vowed to send the US military into the city.
“After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence?” Taylor said to Trump on X.
“When the looting starts the shooting starts??? We will vote you out in November.”
But despite the enthusiasm of Democrats who view Taylor’s endorsement as a game-changer in the presidential election, a new survey conducted by The U.S. Sun shows that those beliefs may fall short.
Americans who participated in The U.S. Sun and Talker Research survey cared very little about who Taylor decides to endorse.
A whopping 61% of those surveyed said that Taylor’s endorsement would have absolutely no impact on who they vote for in the presidential election.
An additional 19% voted that her celebrity support would have “not much of an impact,” according to the survey.
And just 20% admitted that a Taylor endorsement would influence their vote.
A full breakdown of the survey showed 7% voted that Taylor’s endorsement would have a “very big impact.”
While, 13% said it would have a “little bit of an impact.”
One-third of millennials surveyed said the singer’s backing would have a big impact on their vote, compared to only 17% of Gen X and 9% of baby boomers.
When quizzed about their favorite political party, 36% of the 1,000 voters polled said they backed the Democrats, while 34% declared their support for the Republicans.
