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.
No, but common misperception. During the 2000 election, the WWE did a JUST VOTE campaign and sent The Rock to both conventions. He said he was there for bipartisan reasons but the GOP gave him a more plum spot at their event (introducing Dick Cheney) so many people perceived him as a Republican after that even though Biden in 2020 was his first ever official public endorsement.
Also, funny story about that campaign. The WWE actually was doing a bipartisan "Rock Tha Vote" campaign in 2000 until the night before the election. Then Jerry Lawler went on Monday Night Raw and went on a diatribe against Gore/Lieberman because Vince McMahon told him to.
