Speaking to host Will Cain, Johnson revealed that he's not happy with the state of America right now, highlighting "wokeness" and "cancel culture" as contributing to a division in the country that really bugs him.
“I’m not a politician. I’m not into politics," he says. "I care deeply about our country. I’m a patriot, and I believe you are too, as well. And right now, my desire and my priorities are my babies and school drop-offs and pickups — that’s important to me."
He is running.
Man the WWE is really turning out the right-wing crank politicians, first Jesse, then Trump, now the rock. The only good superstar is John Cena
Turns out that living off of Horsemeat Sandwiches and Steroids might mess you up a little
The longer you hang out with Big, Angry, Flushed Men the more likely you are to become one
you're forgetting Kane, mayor of Fort Knox. And there's more than just that as for right wing WWE guys attempting a political turn.
Jesse Ventura is a cut above most of those chumps. He wrote a book called Rebloodlicans Vs Democrips, criticising the 2 party form of government. Pro weed, anti CIA, still mad as fuck about the gulf of tonkin. He's a bit of a 9/11 conspiracy libertarian loon but he's definitely not bankrolled by anyone. And he has beef with Chris Kyle.
You should watch his interview with Piers Morgan. He annihilates him. Practically cuts a wrestling promo on the invasion of Iraq iirc.
Edit: He's now referring to Biden Vs Trump as 'Grift-A-Mania' https://jesseventura.substack.com/p/grift-a-mania-is-upon-us?r=6g9g&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true
The Ultimate Warrior got into politics too. Major homophobe
Lol isn’t the Undertaker also a republican? He and Kane should team up again in politics
god damn I knew he was a walkabout right winger but I didn't realise he's a long time republican donor:

Jesse THE BODY Ventura is the only good libertarian and we will allow him to exist after the revolution. Seems like the kinda guy who is only a libertarian because he grew up in the US surrounded by red scare brainworms. He tried to unionize the WWE. He wanted to meet Fidel. He was against the Iraq war.
This bit he did on that sniper guy is kinda what exemplifies why I like him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPm5KZZMbds Should he mention the racism and fascism and so on? Yeah, but I honestly don't think he knows or comprehends that. But whilst not understanding those things, he still understands that it's fucked up to glorify some yankee chud who shot women and children in a foreign country.
DISCLAIMER I haven't followed him since he talked about wanting to meet Fidel Castro. If he's done something really bad in modern time, then don't tell me.
That's Jesse THE MIND Ventura. Only good vote I ever cast
hes one of those rare libertarians who is actually in the ideology for the social and civil reasons and seems ambivalent to the economic stuff (yes there are some principled libertarians out there, i guess edward snowden is one)
he'd probably be happy with full economic socialism as long as there was a "civil libertarian" society underpinning it. might be why he is intrigued by Castro but i dunno. and it's not much different from most americans probably if you distilled their beliefs in a way that separated them from bourgeois politics and just ask them what they actually want, which would be some variety of economic socialism/social democracy with "live let live everyone do what makes them happy don't bother me"
if (BIG IF) we ever get socialism with american characteristics it's going to be weird as shit
Every Man A Soviet :huey-long-com:
Pretty sure he did explicitly say he didn’t mind socialism which got people upset lol
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
John Cena tried to protect Vince McMahon twice when he was charged with rape. He required one of the Bella twins sigh a 50 something page NDA to live with him. I don't think he's one of the good ones.
nvm then, tbf I don't follow wrestling so I'm uninformed
All good! We all got our blind spots, and if your worst one is professional wrestling you're doing pretty good lol
Holy shit I did not know of that NDA
