Harris-Walz campaign selling Taylor Swift-inspired friendship bracelets after endorsement.
At press time, the bracelets are already sold out. Listed at $20 for a pack of two, the accessories will help raise money for the Harris Victory Fund.
The new merchandise comes amid celebrations across the Democratic party over finally securing Swift’s public approval, with the “Karma” singer’s endorsement having arguably been the most highly anticipated of any celebrity. Swift ended up waiting to speak out until moments after Harris finished debating Republican opponent Donald Trump on ABC News, sharing an outtake from her 2023 TIME Person of the Year photoshoot — featuring her cat Benjamin Button — and writing that she was backing Harris “because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them.”
“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,” the 14-time Grammy winner continued in her message, racking up 8-million-plus “likes” in the span of 12 hours. “I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.”
