Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is under fire for choosing to stay quiet on politics, with multiple celebrities publicly disparaging him for his choices. “Star Trek” star George Takei commented on The Rock’s stance in a Threads post, writing, “Silence is complicity.”  “So disappointing to find out he is such a coward,” Wil Wheaton chimed in, but appears to have deleted the post afterward. It all started in 2024 when the actor told Fox News that he regrets endorsing Joe Biden in 2020.  “Am I happy with the state of America right now? Well, that answer is no,” Johnson said at the time, The Daily Wire previously reported. “Do I believe we’re going to get better? I believe in that. I’m an optimistic guy.” “The endorsement that I made years ago with Biden was one that I thought was the best decision for me at that time,” he added. “And I thought back then … ‘Hey, I’m in this position where I have some influence,’ … and I felt like that then that it’s my job to exercise my influence and share with [people] this is who I’m going to endorse. Am I going to do that again this year? That answer is no.” Johnson is currently promoting the upcoming live-action remake of “Moana” and mentioned in an interview with Esquire that he doesn’t regret that decision.  “What I have learned through experience is that I need to keep — need, not want — the main thing. And the main thing for me, the thing that in the morning I swing my legs out of bed and I run towards, is creating. It’s art. It’s storytelling. I’ve learned I’m going to keep my politics to myself.” He added, “There are moments when, hey, there’s nothing we can’t talk about. If I’m wrong, I’ll tell you I’m wrong. Or if I feel like I got a leg up and this is the right way to go, I’ll share it with you. Politics is omnipresent and it’s forever. I don’t like it. I hate it at times. I hate the slinging. I hate all the bullsh*t that comes with it.” The Rock previously said he considers himself a centrist and had not made any public endorsements prior to endorsing Biden in 2020.
