Arnold Schwarzenegger announced he will be voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 presidential election.
The former Republican governor of California shared his shock endorsement on X Wednesday.
'I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians,' the actor wrote.
Despite that, the Terminator star, 77, said that it's time for the country 'to move forward,' and that 'the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.'
'We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that,' Schwarzenegger said.
'He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.'
In his lengthy announcement, Schwarzenegger added: 'Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results.
'Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.
'It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand,' he said, adding that he wants 'to tune out.'
He then touched on the controversial comment made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at the Madison Square Garden Trump rally Sunday, where he referred to Puerto Rico as 'an island of garbage'.
Schwarzenegger said: 'To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world

Who did the maid endorse?
The Bushies now have no place to go but to grovel to the Democrats and hope they accept them.
My shocked face......😴
“NO WAY FORWARD!”. quemala/waltz.
Years ago, there was a bit of a movement to amend the Constitution to make Arnold eligible to run for U.S. president. Thank goodness that idea went nowhere.
A Nazi supporting a fascist. Welcome to the new Democrat Party.
Arnold has more than likely been after that since Willie dumped her. He has a thing for Hispanic women. Jamaicans will do. House maids or Mayor’s hos. Doesn’t matter.
I never believed his Republican label in California. Too closely associated with Democrats and Kennedys.
The girly-man speaks!
Trump: “I’ll Be Back!”
Roid Brain Rot
He should go to hell. What a fool.
Maybe he's on a list somewhere.
His choice of women, as his endorsements are a bit off!
I seem to recall another Austrian who led another country, what was his name......Shickel-something......
What a stupid bastard.
Arnold helped kill the GOP in California - he was no Ronald Reagan.
I’m glad. We are learning who our opponents, no our enemies, are, and have been, surreptitiously, for a long time.
He’s always been a pussy, and always had more bulk than brains. Another Hollywood idiot…if Hollywood and everyone who is a part of it suddenly disappeared, the IQ of the nation as a whole would go up 10 points.
