Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who publicly supported Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election, recently expressed regret over his endorsement due to the divisiveness it generated. In an upcoming interview snippet, Johnson shared his reflections on the endorsement with Will Cain.
Back in 2020, Johnson believed that publicly endorsing a candidate was the right thing to do, considering his significant influence. However, he acknowledged that his actions inadvertently contributed to national polarization, a realization that profoundly affected him.
Given his experience, Johnson has decided to abstain from making any political endorsements in the current election cycle. He emphasized his commitment to fostering unity over division, recognizing the impact of his considerable influence on public opinion.
Johnson also discussed his disillusionment with the current state of the nation, albeit maintaining an optimistic outlook on America’s potential for improvement. He pledged to support whomever the American populace elects, emphasizing trust in the democratic process despite his general skepticism toward politicians.
In the interview, Johnson also touched on the broader cultural climate, noting the challenges posed by various ‘culture wars’ and the importance of authenticity and honesty in public discourse.
Regarding persistent inquiries about his political ambitions, Johnson clarified that he has no plans to pursue a presidential bid. He prioritized his family responsibilities and expressed a desire to contribute to national unity without stepping into the political arena.
