00:00 Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was apparently approached to run for President of the United
00:04 States.
00:05 While appearing on The Daily Show Hosts podcast "What Now?
00:09 With Trevor Noah," The Rock spilled details on a possible political future.
00:14 The conversation started because of a poll completed in 2021 that surveyed over 30,000
00:20 U.S. adults and found 49% of those adults would support Johnson running for President.
00:26 Johnson commented on the results of the poll, saying, "That was an interesting poll that
00:29 happened and I was really moved by that.
00:32 I was really blown away and I was really honored."
00:34 But that wasn't all The Star had to say.
00:37 The Rock also added that he was approached about doing a presidential campaign for real,
00:41 saying, "I'll share this little bit with you.
00:44 At the end of the year in 2022, I got a visit from the parties asking me if I was going
00:48 to run and if I could run."
00:50 However, The Star added that a career in politics was never what he wanted as he shot down the
00:55 concept to focus on his family.
