Dwayne Johnson denies ruling out running for US President
(Web Desk) – Actor and professional wrestler Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson says he’s not willing to rule out a career in politics. He says he very well might run for president in the future if "the people" wanted him in politics.
The actor first brought up the idea in 2017, telling fans he would go up against former president Donald Trump in 2020. But now, he’s willing to explore the idea further.
"I would consider a presidential run in the future if that’s what the people wanted," he told a US magazine.
"Truly I mean that, and I’m not flippant in any way with my answer. That would be up to the people... So I would wait, and I would listen," he added.
Dwayne is currently promoting his new show Young Rock, which is set in 2032 and depicts his run for presidency. He admitted that the role has forced him to consider diving into politics in the future.
"I would have my finger on the pulse, my ear to the ground," he said.
