U.S.A. – -(Ammoland.com)- “As a political independent & centrist, I’ve voted for both parties in the past,” former WWE star turned movie star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson tweeted Sunday. “In this critical presidential election, I’m endorsing @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris .”
“As a registered independent for years now with centrist ideologies, I do feel that Vice President Biden and Sen. Harris are the best choice to lead our country, and I am endorsing them to become president and vice president,” he declared in a vacuous video smooch session with the candidates.
At this point, it might be appropriate to ask “Who cares?” After all, how is another overprivileged Hollywood lottery winner coming out as a Democrat supporter “news”? It would seem the real news would be for an “A”-lister” to reveal himself to be a Second Amendment-breathing Constitutionalist, but we all know such a heretic would never work in that town again.
The reason Johnson is noteworthy is that he has floated the idea of running for president himself, and preliminary exploration shows a critical mass of thoughtless voters eager to commit citizenship malpractice on his behalf. These deep thinkers would vote for the “people’s champ” over Donald Trump simply because of celebrity worship. Those polled had no clue as to Johnson’s positions on the issues of the day or on the Constitution, but since when could that ever compete with a human stage prop who pretends to be likable and heroic on the screen?
Lest you think he wouldn’t stand a chance on an actual political run, think of names like Schwarzenegger and Ventura, muscle-bound Hollywood bruisers who both successfully exploited their screen personas to gain governorships. Johnson has just gone from talking about politics to sticking his toe in the pool. He has now shown some powerful string-pullers through this audition — and that’s what it was — that he’s ready to join the team and use his popularity to carry the ball toward their goals.
He’s also shown them he speaks their narrative language, emphasizing code phrases like “centrist ideologies” and assigning those to the Biden/Harris ticket. If they’re moderate, what must that make anyone to the “right” of the Democrats but an “extremist,” and we see everyday examples of how that is further conflated into smears of being fascists, and Nazis and racists…
That means Johnson is signaling his followers that Kamala Harris was being “centrist” when she “praised the brilliance’ and ‘impact’ of “Black Lives Matter, gushing “I actually believe that ‘Black Lives Matter’ has been the most significant agent for change within the criminal justice system.” And that means he’s saying it is “centrist” for Harris to defer to BLM’s admitted “trained Marxist” leadership with its ties to communist China.
Then again, we are talking about a guy who “rules the Chinese box office.” You don’t really think the ruling elites believe in the goals of the useful idiot street commies they’re exploiting, do you?
And if Dwayne is “centrist” and Kamala supports BLM, that must mean neither one has a problem with “peaceful protests” that result in riots, looting, arson, assaults, or even coercing solidarity fists from innocent Johnson fans who are just trying to have dinner before going to one of his movies. Hey, he’s got plenty more where they came from.
Here’s what else Johnson’s endorsement de facto deems “centrist”: The Biden/Harris gun-grab agenda. That means he’s on board with banning semiautomatics and standard capacity magazines, scrapping the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, expanding on prior restraints with enhanced registration-enabling “background checks,” adding to “red flag” prohibitions, endorsing state licenses to own a gun and “put[ting] America on the path to ensuring that 100% of firearms sold in America are smart guns.”
And if you oppose those infringements, guess what that makes you.
This guy is another Schwarzenegger in the making, and that’s just as obvious to see now as it was then.

Typical Hollywood know-nothing, do-nothing liberal. He makes money with play guns but it s pussy when it comes to the real thing!
Again another comment that has no merit. Smh
Coming from you; the expert in comments with no merit.
This is why anabolic Steroids Are Bad for your brain.
Look at Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone.
Men who take anabolic steroids may:
Suffer brain damage
Develop breasts
Get painful erections
Have their testicles shrink
Have decreased sperm count
Become infertile
Become impotent.
And also become Liberals.
Just another actor making money off of what he doesn’t support. Typical hollywood.
As somebody else said “don’t be as dumb as a rock”
Good reply!!!
Since the “peaceful protest” subject was brought up, I’m putting my idea out on what characterizes a PEACEFUL protest: No murders or assaults. No throwing of any objects. No providing bricks to protesters. No pointing or brandishiing of weapons (simply letting your carried weapon be seen is OK, where legal). No pushing, hitting, etc. No verbal abuse, such as crude name calling, threats, or loud profanity. No starting fires. No impeding traffic. No trespassing. No vandalism. No fireworks. No intimidation of bystanders. Comply with reasonable, lawful orders from police or other proper authorities. And I’m sure we could add to… Read more »
Agree … a pet beagle would be a far better choice than anyone from the swamp ….
I have Rescue Greyhounds, and they give me no grief about my politics, also the bet of friends!!!!!!!!!!
Also to add to the list, no backpacks, no signs with sticks or poles attached, no skateboards and finally, no umbrellas.
Not sure if the ‘Rock’ moniker applies to what is between his ears or his acting ability.
So much of his movie career has been based on weapons.
We can now see he is a hypocrite.
Look at so many of those action movie stars who made million$ from starring in movies where guns were prominent. The Rock, Stallone, Schwarzenegger, and many more who had utter disdain for 2-A.
Yes, they think they are entitled to have guns but we are not. Such hypocrites!
A version of “We’re the Only Ones”
Not true!! If this was JUST about the 2nd amendment, I’m sure ALL parties have members that support it. I’m voting differently This year because I despise hate of all type of forms. F… Trump!!
Well based on this, I wondering now if we can say …
“Blood Money”
Why not?
Well, It is hard to believe about the “Rock’ but I guess it is true/ Some boys really do have a vagina.
Anybody identifying themselves as “political independent & centrist” is code for having no core values or guiding principles. Add to that his slavish support for BLM, simply confirms who he really is–who all leftists really are. His movies are dead to me. He’s antithetical to the American flag and everything it stands for.
ZERO respect for him now, added to the NO LONGER EXISTS Hollywood SHIT PILE ! Any movie with him in it will no longer grace the screen of my T.V.
I used to enjoy watching Dwayne in his IMAGINARY stories. These antics of supporting ANTI-AMERICANS is UNFORGIVABLE to a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLICAN form of government!!! Dwayne, I hope you already have MILLIONS of dollars from USING GUNS in almost all of your IMAGINARY characters. You have lost me as a purchaser of your stories!!!
He is a product of public education tempered by years among the hollywood crowd. No confusion in the simple fact that he is confused. Calling yourself “independent” and “in the middle” simultaneously means you have no underlying political philosophy. Case in point.
These “So-called Independents” don’t understand when it comes to the Bill of Rights, you are either for it or against it.
Shame on any Gun Owner who votes Democrat.
Shame on “Post Turtles.”
Ever notice the Hollywood lefties don’t come out as total lefties until AFTER they have so much money they never have to work again? Pi$$ing off half your potential audience/revenue stream isn’t too smart.
Pathetic…
Duane, if the democrat hoped-for confiscation starts, YOU come and try to take mine. Don’t send some hapless cop to do your dirty work. IF you have the rocks, that is…
Dude’s a court jester at best, and an unprincipled lout with no core values whatsoever. He’s swingin’ in the wind and saying what the kool kids are saying, so he’ll fit in. Pretty damn pathetic actually.
Old Saying:
“No matter how many times the Bee proves to the Fly that pollen is a healthier, better tasting diet than crap, the Fly refuses to believe it and continues eating crap”.
Thanks for the support!! Trump supporters please stop believing his sh!t!! #Lets Vote Him Out!!
And vote for Sleepy, Slimy Joe? FUGITTTABOUDIT!
That is CHINA Joe. He is owned by the Chinese Communist Party.
I have always been baffled and somewhat amused that anyone would care what a person paid to pretend thinks. The only thing I am confident this guy knows is how to pretend he is something he isn’t, no wonder he’s a democrat! The only weaker mind than his is someone stupid enough to care what he says.
Yep, actions have always spoken louder than words. Understand people by what they do, not what they say.
The Rock has no “stones”. He just pretends to be brave.
Duh-wayne is as dumb as a rock….
What a shame, I thought he had more stones.
Shame on any Gun Owner who votes Democrat.
Not true!! More ARs was bought during Obama administration than ANY other administration including Clown Trump!! I understand Trumpers aren’t the smartest but don’t type and remove all doubt!! I luv my 2nd amendment rights. And I will fight for it with all I have but I WILL NOT stand for your President racist remarks!! Rock I hope the President is “smelling what you’re cooking!”
A Dumbocrat claiming to be pro-gun is like a Nazi claiming to be pro-Jewish. Nice try; no cigar. Grow up.
well hold on to your ar’s ’cause you’re gonna need ’em to fight your way out of socialism if you vote for Joe biden. If he don’t take them first. like Obama wanted to. More ARs were sold under the obama admin because of his ANTI GUN talk and bans…But we realize how stupid democrats are. They can’t recognize the bell of truth when they hear it ring. So carry on being stupid.
Actors should remain neutral when it comes to politics, after all they didn’t get familiar by their political views.
Anyway, there’s another one to add to the list of do not watch.
Why?? They are people that are influenced by politics. This comment makes no sense. Let’s Rock the vote and take out the Russian secret operative!!
And why not the Taiwanese ‘secret operative’? Take your meds BEFORE you post.
The Rock must be stoned.
1700s violence?? Funny. Let’s be better people.
You first.
Never liked him to begin with. And even less now since he’s turned commie. Isn’t is strange how all the gun-totin, shoot ’em up movie stars are anti gun?
EXACTLY, RIGHT ON !! These hollywood liberals are IRRELEVENT !!
Most of the actors will play ANY part for the right price, even if it favorably portrays views they oppose. Maybe he thinks he will be exempt from the firearms confiscations. Or he doesn’t own firearms, just rents them(armed security) How many of them can’t speak without a script?
Edward Norton- American History X comes to mind. He was totally against the part and knew it could destroy his career path, but money got the best of him.
Looks like he’s just another Hollywood liberal who can’t see the forest for the tree’s.
Given the crop of useless twits the major parties regularly put on offer, can you really blame people for voting for Schwarzenegger and Ventura? Any outsider would be worth a second look. Casper The Friendly Ghost would be a better candidate that what the elites of the Dems and Repubs typically bring forward. Both Schwarzenegger and Ventura were actually pretty darn successful and good governors because they brought real-life, non-acting skills to the table. Johnson could probably get elected but would be a total failure because he has nothing beyond name recognition; the term empty suit fits well. Trump cake-waked… Read more »
Ventura and The Terminator were ‘good governors’? Since when?
You’re right at this point who gives a rats ass what Hollywood does
Wow another hypocritical Hollywood elite. Go figure.
I figured as much… he now securely falls into the category of 姧wiþës that I often imagine John Cleese yells at from his castle wall:
” I FAA-RRT in your general dii-rection !!!“
I prefer “Your mother was a hampster and your father smelt of elderberries!
“I wave my private parts at your aunties.”
Monty Python….the best.
Tom selleck has never been shy about his support of the second amendment.
Back in the 90’s he put rosy odummy in her place when she tried her anti-gun crap with him.
Dwayne is an actor. AKA he pretends for a living. No actor is who they pretend to be in real life. They are trained monkeys dancing for money or treats. If you are heartbroken that a person paid to lie for a living is supporting evil, then you need better role models. No Actor has ever done anything for you, this country or anyone other than their own direct family. Stop looking up to these people.
Dwayne is owned by China.
He dances to their tune.
Too bad, I liked him…not any more.
His opinion,as an actor, carries as much worth as his opinion as a wrestler.
Ditto
What’s all the fuss about? After all, he is just “Keeping it real!”
HATE?? Let’s just shoot it straight between the eyes. #LetsKillHATE!!
