Kamala Harris running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, appeared to be wearing friendship bracelets during his vice presidential debate with Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) on Tuesday.

The subtle fashion statement, which could be seen in quick flashes whenever Walz motioned with his hands, brought to mind pop singer Taylor Swifts endorsement of Vice President Harris on Sept. 10. Swifties, as her fans are called, have notably made and exchanged these beaded friendship bracelets in homage to Swifts 2022 song Youre on Your Own, Kid.

Following Swifts endorsement, the Harris-Walz campaign released its own $20 friendship bracelets, which feature the surnames of the two Democratic candidates. The bracelets quickly sold out, according to Billboard magazine .

Walzs bracelets and a watch accessorized his black suit and blue tie on the CBS News debate stage.

JD Vance wore a navy suit with a hot pink tie.

Both wore U.S. flag pins on their lapels.

In Swifts endorsement of Harris and Walz, she mocked Vances resurfaced childless cat lady remarks and lauded Walz for being a politician who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a womans right to her own body for decades.

I am incredibly grateful to Taylor Swift . I say that as a fellow cat owner, he said.
