Will You Vote For The Rock In 2024?

Earlier in the year, The Rock spoke with GQ Magazine about rumors concerning him making a run for President of the United States. “I think that it’s a real possibility,” admitting that he’s given a run a lot of thought since last year.

“A year ago it started coming up more and more,” Rock said. “There was a real sense of earnestness, which made me go home and think, ‘Let me really rethink my answer and make sure I am giving an answer that is truthful and also respectful.’ I didn’t want to be flippant—’We’ll have three days off for a weekend! No taxes!'”

This week, Variety published an article talking with Dwayne Johnson about if this is still something he’s considering, and it sounds like he is, in 2024. The reason for the wait is due to his current movie schedule, which at this point will keep him busy into 2021.

“I couldn’t do both.” Rock said. “Realistically, as we go into 2018, when you look at my slate as we’re developing and shooting into 2019 and 2020, the slate goes deep into 2021, so it feels like the realistic consideration would be 2024.”

All I can say is, anyone in this position who thinks they can shake things up ‘one man’ style clearly doesn’t understand that democracy does not exist.  Step out of line and the real decision makers will wrap your car around a tree, Mr. Maivia.

Anyone remember when Hulk Hogan wanted to do the same thing?

[Hogan] “I had to come to the crossroads here. I’ve accomplished everything I’ve wanted to do in wrestling. My family is secure. I’ve had a great career. I wanted to come on [The Tonight Show] and officially announce my retirement…”

“All good things must come to an end. I had a great career. The fans have been great. I love you guys and thanks for sticking with me. And this really helps me segue into being the next president of the United States.”
