Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson certainly needs no introduction when it comes to the pro wrestling world, as he is still regarded as one of the all-time greats. He is now one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood. Being such a huge name with a massive fan following, there are many who want him to become the President of the United States.
Last year, it was revealed in a survey that 46% of voters would push the button to vote for Dwayne Johnson to become POTUS. The Rock even said that it would be an honor to be the President.
A former pro wrestler and current actor becoming the President is certainly not a farfetched concept if we consider the recent trend of U.S. Presidents.
While speaking on “LADbible TV,” The Rock and Kevin Hart addressed whether he would make a good president of the USA. While Hart is certain The Rock can do it, The Rock was more on the realistic side.
“I want to see the crash and burn, baby,” Hart said. “… I think [The Rock] is more than capable of doing whatever he puts his mind to; that’s why I’m over on that side.”
“I said, ‘[I] Disagree,’” Rock said. “Just because I have leadership qualities doesn’t make me necessarily a good presidential candidate.”
The Rock was also considered a serious presidential contender by a former White House Chief Of Staff. However, the likes of Stephen Colbert don’t want The Rock to run for President. We will have to wait and see whether The Rock ends up running for President or not.
