When I manually colorize the capitals of words the kerning breaks. Is there a way to preserve this without manually adding in negative spaces?

2Please use “real” sample code instead of external images. Nobody wants to retype your code to reproduce your results. – Ingmar Nov 14 '21 at 14:05

Compiling your document with LuaLaTeX instead of pdfLaTeX and loading the luacolor package solves the kerning issue.
If you need to load the xcolor package as well, you should load xcolor before luacolor. E.g., if you need to load xcolor with the option table, you should run \usepackage[table]{xcolor} before running \usepackage{luacolor}.
% !TEX TS-program = lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{luacolor}
\begin{document}
\begin{tabular}{ll}
\verb+{\color{red}W}onder+ & {\color{red}W}onder \\
\verb+\textcolor{red}{W}onder+ & \textcolor{red}{W}onder \\
\verb+Wonder+ & Wonder \\
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
