It has been rumored for a long time now that Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson would eventually run for President. But is it finally happening now? Joe Biden took over as the POTUS in 2021, as rumors began that ‘The Rock’ would be announcing about his run for the same position later.
However, all such rumors have been cleared, with Johnson finally landing on a decision. Recently, during an interview on CBS Sunday Morning, Johnson stated he will not run for the POTUS anymore because of reasons related to his family. He claimed he wants to spend time with his family and be there for his daughters.

The Rock appeared on CBS Sunday morning and said, “Yes, it’s off the table.” Johnson stated how he knew what it meant to be on the road, and how he missed his elder daughter’s growing up stage because of this, and does not want the same to happen this time.

Covering the really important stories, I see.
Gosh, why do people hate the MSM???

However, some fans were extremely ruthless when addressing this issue and stated how they did not want any inexperienced people coming in as the President.
We dont need anymore inexperienced celebrities with no knowledge of politics or any policy. The only reason Johnson was considered is his fame and popularity. These are not presidential qualities. He is a great entertainer and seems a good man, he would not be a good president.

More like doesn’t want the media to attack the absolute shit out of him, his past, and his family. 4-8 years serving the highest office would be worth missing some events. The media is costing us willing candidates with fresh ideas.

Last I heard he wasn't running because he wasn't interested and the last it was mentioned he said he was joking

He was never gonna run. He's too fragile to want all his dirty laundry exposed.

@TheRock come on man you are the freaking Rock! Go become President. You’ll daughter be ok, she has access to all your funds

As if Hollywood doesn't do the same thing. He's off on shoots, promotional tours, he's starting a football organization, etc etc.
Kind of a cop out reason, imo. He'd probably have more time with his family as president.
