Trump’s elated he won the respect of one major celeb who reached out: ‘I never thought he liked me’

October 22, 2024 | | Print Article

Former President Donald J. Trump revealed that he’s won over one of the biggest stars in Hollywood and the wrestling world, leaving the door open for him to get a late endorsement from Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

During an interview with pro wrestling legend The Undertaker on the latest edition of the “Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway” podcast, the GOP nominee discussed his relationship with the superstar actor/wrestler who has a massive following.

“You know he was great. I never thought he liked me,” he said. “And I felt badly because I think he’s a terrific guy,” telling the host that The Rock called UFC boss Dana White to express his admiration for Trump’s defiant reaction after a sniper nearly killed him at a July rally in Butler, PA.

“And then Dana White said, when I was shot, took a shot to the ear, you may have heard about it, Rock called Dana and said I want to have his number, I want to have his number,” Trump added. “What he did is sort of incredible. He considered it bravery…”

“It was very nice actually, The Rock. You might mention that I said that,” he said.

When he was hit by a bullet fired by would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks, Trump stood with blood streaming down his face and thrust a fist into the air, imploring Americans to “Fight! Fight! Fight!” in an iconic image that was so powerful, the corrupt media and Big Tech quickly acted to censor it.

While The Rock has yet to publicly come out in support of Trump, if he did, the endorsement could rival that of left-wing pop diva Taylor Swift, the “Childless Cat Lady.” She bestowed her support and that of her cult-like following of “Swifties” on Democrat nominee Kamala Harris.

He boasts a massive 395 million fans on Instagram, exceeding the high-profile Kansas City Chiefs fan’s 283 million.

“Whether you love Donald, don’t love Donald, it doesn’t matter. They tried to assassinate him. There’s no room for that. Despite it being who we were in that moment, I still believe in my core that is not who we are as a country. So him standing up at that moment, we wanted to see that,” Johnson said at a recent conference.

“He used to come watch me wrestle all the time at Madison Square Garden. It was great. First time I saw him, he said ‘Let me see the eyebrows,’” The Rock recalled.
