You know, I’ve been following Owen Wilson for a while, not just for his movies, but also because the guy’s got some interesting takes on things, especially when it comes to politics.
So the other day, I was going down this rabbit hole, trying to piece together what this dude really thinks about the whole political scene. It’s kinda like solving a puzzle, you know?

First off, I started digging through some old interviews and articles. I mean, this is Owen Wilson we’re talking about, the “Wedding Crashers” guy. You wouldn’t think he’d be super vocal about politics, right? But surprise, surprise, the guy’s got opinions.
What I found out pretty quickly is that he’s a Democrat. No shocker there, Hollywood and all that. But it’s not just a casual thing. Apparently, he was all in for Obama back in the day, and it seems like he’s been backing the Democratic nominees ever since.
But here’s where it gets kinda juicy. The man has some pretty strong thoughts about Donald Trump. And when I say strong, I mean, he’s compared Trump to Charlie Sheen. Yeah, you heard that right, Charlie Sheen!
Here’s how I got to that conclusion:
- Started with the basics: I just Googled “Owen Wilson politics” to get a general sense. A bunch of articles popped up, most of them talking about this Trump-Sheen comparison.
- Dived into interviews: I watched a few interviews where he was asked about politics. He didn’t shy away from sharing his views, especially about Trump. He basically said that Trump’s entertaining, in a, well, you know, a Charlie Sheen kind of way. Like, you can’t help but watch the train wreck, I guess.
- Checked out some news sites: I looked at some reliable news outlets, just to make sure I wasn’t getting some twisted version of the story. And yep, they all pretty much confirmed what I’d already found.
So, what’s the takeaway from all this? Well, it seems like Owen Wilson, like a lot of us, is kinda fascinated and maybe a little horrified by the whole Trump phenomenon. He sees him as this larger-than-life character, kinda like Charlie Sheen during his, shall we say, “winning” phase.
And honestly, I kinda get it. It’s hard to look away, even if you don’t agree with the guy’s politics.
But beyond the Trump stuff, it’s clear that Owen Wilson is a pretty staunch liberal. He believes in what the Democratic party stands for, and he’s not afraid to say it. Which, you know, good for him. It’s always interesting to see where celebrities stand on these things.

Anyway, that’s my little deep dive into Owen Wilson’s political world. It was a fun little exploration, and it definitely made me see the guy in a slightly different light.
