Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson bemoans 'woke culture,' declines to endorse presidential candidate

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is keeping his name off the ballot slip and his lips sealed about his 2024 presidential vote.

In an interview with "Fox & Friends" shared Friday, the wrestler and actor reflected on his 2020 endorsement of President Joe Biden. "What that caused back then was something that tears me up in my guts back then and now, which is division," Johnson said, adding that it's something he won't do this election cycle.

"The takeaway after that, after months and months and months, I started to realize, like, 'Oh man, that caused an incredible amount of division in our country,'" the "Black Adam" star said. "I wouldn't do that, because my goal is to bring our country together. I believe in that, in my DNA. So in the spirit of that, there's going to be no endorsement."

Johnson added: "Not that I'm afraid of it at all, but it's just I realize that (with) this level of influence … I keep my politics to myself, and I think it's between me and the ballot box."

Biden and former President Donald Trump are the presumptive Democrat and Republican nominees, respectively, in the 2024 presidential election this November. Third party candidates include Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Cornel West and Jill Stein.

Whatever happens this election, Johnson said he will support the president. "I do trust the American people. And I trust that whoever they vote for. That's going to be my president, and that's who I'm going to support 100%," he said.

Although Johnson did not reveal which way his vote was swaying, he did share that he wants the country to move away from "woke culture" and "cancel culture" because "that really bugs me."

The "Jumanji" star also stressed that he's not throwing his hat in the election ring. "That's not my intention. I'm not a politician, I'm not into politics. I care deeply about our country. … In the spirit of bringing people together and bringing our country together, I don't know if that's the right move at this point."

Johnson teased running for president in the 2024 election in 2017, telling Variety it was a "realistic consideration."

In 2022, he walked back his comments in an interview with "CBS Sunday Morning." Johnson said a bid for the highest seat in office was "off the table" because it would take him away from his children. The actor is a father to daughters Simone, 22, Jasmine, 8, and Tiana, 5.

"I love our country and everyone in it. I also love being a daddy," he said.

"I know what it was like to be on the road and be so busy that I was absent for a lot of years for my first daughter's growing up," Johnson said, referencing the height of his WWE career. "My number one priority is my daughters. Sure, CEO sounds great, but the number one thing I want to be is daddy."
