Dwayne Johnson was gravely aggrieved by the current President-elect during his first term as POTUS. He believed that the state of the 2017 political administration was marred by missteps and disappointments only a few weeks after Donald Trump moved into the White House. But the problems ran deep.
It was not simply the Trump administration’s mismanagement, erratic choices, and dogmatic ideologies that scared half of the population. There were aspects of Trump’s leadership skills that Johnson did not view as competent enough for the most powerful country on the planet.
Dwayne Johnson and his many disappointments
In 2016, the world got a reality check whenDonald J. Trump, billionaire business magnate and media personality, was elected into office as the 45th President of the United States following Barack Obama. His arrival marked a horrifying era of chaos and a decline in rational sensibilities.
Trump’s conservative preachings and policies including the anti-immigration stance, dismantling the US Department of Education, firing “radical left accreditors” and those who investigate him (including FBI director James Comey), cutting federal funding for schools teaching critical race theory, barring transgender female athletes from participating in school sports and otherdivisive initiativeshave laid down the grounds for a dismal PR problem.
Dwayne Johnsonstands at the tip of the spear that pokes and prods at all the flaws in the Trump administration, making it difficult for the people to turn a blind eye or be lenient with his misgivings. The Rock has spoken up more than once against the President-elect insomuch that the actor even began to seriously consider running for office after witnessing thechaos that Trump was leaving in his wake.
The Rock called out Donald Trump’s leadership skills
When Donald Trump was first elected as President, aGQprofileon Dwayne Johnson in 2017 highlighted just how worried, anxious, and disappointed the actor was in his country’s political affairs. It made him realize that he wanted to see a change at the highest levels of the administration:“I’d like to see a better leadership. I’d like to see a greater leadership.”
According to Dwayne Johnson, Trump was unworthy of the honor of being called a great leader for numerous reasons, one of which was his inability to accept people’s disagreements and improve upon them. Johnson claims,“We all have issues, and we all gotta work our shit out. And I feel like one of the qualities of a great leader is not shutting people out.”
Although all of it sounds promising enough on paper, the reality is bleak enough to leave the masses disgruntled. In turn, Johnson offers a better view of the future, a vision of a better administration and a country finally at peace with its Commander-in-Chief:
Personally, I feel that if I were president, poise would be important. Leadership would be important. Taking responsibility for everybody. [If I didn’t agree with someone] on something, I wouldn’t shut them out. I would actually include them. The first thing we’d do is we’d come and sit down and we’d talk about it.
Dwayne Johnson has come a long waysince his days at the WWE arena. Now he honors his legacy as the People’s Champion by applying all his learnings and trade secrets from his pro-wrestling days to his career as a professional actor. Listening to his audience always seems to pay off. Currently, Johnson is the third-richest actor on the planet, after Tyler Perry and Jerry Seinfeld with a net worth of $890 million (according toGeeks for Geeks).
