[The wrestler turned action star
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson dealt a blow to Joe Biden, saying he would not repeat his endorsement of the president in his looming rematch with Donald Trump. Johnson endorsed Biden in his first contest with Trump four years ago, saluting the former vice-president and senator for his “compassion, heart, drive and soul”. But in an interview with Fox News on Friday, Johnson said: “Am I going to do that again this year? That answer’s no. I realise now going into this election, I will not do that.” Long the subject of rumours about his own political ambitions, Johnson reportedly fielded an approach from No Labels, the centrist group that now says it will not run a candidate against Biden and Trump. Johnson has not disavowed talk of running for office. In 2021, after a poll showed public support, he said: “I don’t think our Founding Fathers EVER envisioned a six-four, bald, tattooed, half-Black, half-Samoan, tequila drinking, pick-up truck driving, fanny pack-wearing guy joining their club – but if it ever happens it’d be my honour to serve you, the people.”] https://www.theguardian.com/film/202...en-endorsement |

I like Dwayne Johnson.
But! He shouldn't be the American President, Trump and Reagan should already be proof enough that Celebrities don't make for good Politicians. And tbh I can't blame him about Biden, it's just for me I think that Trump is even worse, so I'm hoping that Americans see it similar to me in that sense.

You'd find plenty of people who would say that Reagan and Trump were good Presidents
People would say it about Zelensky too Last edited by MTVN; 06-04-2024 at 09:54 AM. |

I saw the interview and what he actually said was he wouldn't endorse Biden this time. There are good reasons for that given he is heavily involved in pro wrestling. It's not smart business to piss off half your audience.
He didn't say anything about not voting for Biden, nor did he say he was now supporting Trump. Having lived through the Reagan administration, he and Maggie Thatcher were responsible for changing the entirety of eastern europe, reforming russia, bringing down the berlin wall, removing the threat of nuclear war and ending the cold war. If that is not a success, i don't know what is Last edited by bitontheslide; 06-04-2024 at 10:08 AM. |

But I don't believe that it's going to be a common result what Arnie pulled off.
