Sarah Jessica Parker has a very logical reason for not using her platform to discuss politics.
“I often don’t talk on social media because I don’t think it’s a place that’s deserving of any real complicated conversation. I’m not interested in quick little snippets when it’s dealing with conflict or even elections sometimes,” the And Just Like That star, 60, said during the Monday, July 7, episode of Nicole Wallace’s“The Best People” podcast. “I really was so thoughtful about how I wanted to talk about the election because I think it turns into a distraction from a campaign. It turns into fodder. It’s misunderstood. You have no control over it.”
Parker — who previously endorsed Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election via an October Instagram post — emphasized that there are “so many ways to work toward a more civil society,” adding that past presidents such as Franklin D. Roosevelt were “elected without social media” prior to its existence.
In fact, as Parker pointed out, “Many things happened, right and left, Republicans and Democrats for many, many, many years — many generations were elected without someone having to say something on Instagram.”

Over the years, Parker has felt pressure to “be vocal” as a celebrity with a platform. However, amid an increasingly delicate political climate inundated with divisive issues, she has struggled to become “comfortable being vocal” in her own way.
“I’m not going to talk about stuff that I don’t feel educated on. I’m not going to jump in on really complex areas that I feel are deserving of far more thought, consideration, nuance — which I know no one’s interested in,” she continued. “And I just feel like I want to be helpful. I don’t want to hurt something that matters to me.”
Behind the scenes, Parker is focused on educating herself by learning “what is scary and what is dangerous” in the political sphere while also trying to figure out “the difference between something being said and the reality of it happening.”
