The Rock May Run for President When He Can Get Around to It
If he does he has promised to bodyslam all debate contestants.
There are a lot of reasons for the half-whimsical popular movement to convince the actor and ex–professional wrestler Dwayne Johnson, a.k.a. The Rock, to run for president. Larger than life both physically and metaphorically, Johnson seems an appealing, well-spoken character, perhaps even underrated as an actor. Like a real superhero, he’s in constant motion, with movie and TV projects galore. And in the Trump era, The Rock’s complete lack of conventional qualifications for the job isn’t so daunting. In some respects, he represents the light side of the entertainment planet while the current president of the United States always represented the dark side. The multiracial Californian turned Floridian also looks and sounds like America would like to look and sound (in contrast to the pasty and inarticulate incumbent) if America were an action figure.
Johnson has done a masterful job in teasing the idea of a political career for himself for quite some time:
So is Dwayne Johnsons political run illegal to speak of?
Only Hitler knows
