    After the first 2024 presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, music icon Taylor Swift gave a detailed endorsement to the vice president in November’s election.

    Plenty of noticeable names liked Swift’s post about the endorsement on Instagram, including Indiana Fever rookie guard Caitlin Clark.

    Ahead of Wednesday night’s game against the Las Vegas Aces, USA Today‘s Christine Brennan asked Clark about that social media approval and if that meant she was supporting Harris in the 2024 presidential election.

    “I have this amazing platform, so I think the biggest thing would be just to encourage people to register to vote,” Clark said in her response. “Continue to educate yourself with the candidates that we have, the policies that they’re supporting.

    “I think that’s the biggest thing you can do, and that’s what I would recommend to every single person that has that opportunity in our country.”

    While that’s not an outright endorsement, you can kind of read between the lines a bit to see how Clark’s response may hint at who she would endorse.

    There is still plenty of time before this year’s election for Clark to make an endorsement so we’ll see soon enough if the WNBA rookie superstar decides to wade into the political waters and be more direct with her approach.
