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.

    He's a Saudi bitch. Rakes in millions from Saudi funding. Cancel culture? Ever seen Saudi cancel culture? gui-better or how Saudis chop journalists who expose them up? Or how they did a genocide against Yemen with US suport?

    The crap is he crying about wokeness when he's freaking Maui? He was literally a diversity hire.

      He was literally a diversity hire

      The Rock was more of a nepotism hire as was his initial push as Rocky Maivia. His family had a long history with the WWF. The fans hated him at first for that reason. That's why he turned heel and became the Rock and got over

        Did you know that his dad was

        CW SA

        charged with rape in the 80s (edited because I don't think he was convicted) because I didn't find that out until recently.

        Nepo hires are good for angles and storylines. Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes both had family in the business and both have had story lines involving their family.

          No arguement there. More just a correction to saying he was a diversity hire and cause i felt like talking wrestling lol. Family has always been big in the industry since the territory days and probably before

      youre-welcome I legitimately love Moana, in part because it's the most woke movie Disney has ever made, being that it's about finding strength in your culture's history but not in a fashy white supremacist way.

        Moana is my favourite Disney movie but I don't remember the politics of it, I just remember that awesome crab and his amazing song

        It also felt like a fun mythological adventure which hasn't been that common in movies for a while
