Conservative radio show host Mark Levin described actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as a “self-righteous egomaniac” after his endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
“Self-righteous egomaniac. And why should we care who another actor endorses? What a surprise, he endorses the Democrats,” Levin tweeted Monday. “Well, then, let’s stop thinking for ourselves, no longer worry about the Republic, vote for a mentally incapacitated lifetime political hack, because ‘the Rock’ is stupid enough to do so. Uh, no.”

“By the way, to show you what a clown ‘the Rock’ truly is, he says he’s a centrist and Independent, yet he’s effusive in his support for Kamala Harris, who’s the most leftwing senator in the Senate (left of Sanders!), and was the most vicious and vile hack of the bunch during Brett Kavanaugh‘s confirmation hearings. This should make you even more active in re-electing President Trump,” Levin continued.
Johnson publicly endorsed a candidate for president for the first time this weekend, lauding the former vice president as the “best choice” for the United States.
“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,” Johnson said in a video posted to Instagram on Sunday.
The video then showed him speaking with Biden and Harris, asking them, “How will you earn the respect of the American people once you’re inside the White House?”
“By doing what we say we’re going to do, by keeping our word, by leveling with the American people, by taking responsibility,” Biden responded. “When we fail, acknowledge it. We’re not going to be perfect, but take responsibility.“
“It’s about trust, right? As we know the nature of trust … it’s a reciprocal relationship,” Harris added. “You give and you receive trust. And one of the foundations of trust is truth. You must speak truth. But here’s the reality: Truth can sometimes be difficult to hear, and for that reason, sometimes people don’t speak it. But you cannot have trust if you don’t speak truth. You know that as a parent.”
Johnson added in the post’s caption that he’s been a “centrist for many years, I’ve voted for Democrats in the past and as well as Republican.”
