Dwayne Johnson, popularly known as "The Rock," has shared that in 2022 he was approached by multiple political parties, who inquired about his interest in running for the position of President of the United States. This comes after a 2021 political poll indicated that 46% of Americans would vote for him.

During an interview on Trevor Noah's Spotify What Now? podcast, Johnson expressed his surprise and gratitude at the poll results. "That was an interesting poll that happened, and I was really moved by that. And I was really uh, blown away. I was really honored," he said.

Johnson then revealed that political parties visited him at the end of 2022, one after the other, seeking his potential candidacy. He mentioned that they referred to the poll and their own extensive research as evidence of his popularity and potential success.

However, while Johnson acknowledged that it was a significant opportunity, he made it clear that politics has never been his goal. "Matter of fact, there's a lot of things about politics that I hate," he confessed to Trevor Noah. He emphasized that his role as a father was the primary reason why he had decided against pursuing a political career at this time.

In an interview with CBS Mornings last year, Johnson mentioned his dedication to being a present father. "I love being a daddy, and that's the most important thing to me...especially during this critical time in my daughters' lives," he explained. Johnson's concern for his children's well-being and the possibility of being separated from them played a significant factor in his decision.

It was after Johnson's comments last year about considering a presidential run that the political parties approached him. However, he reiterated his commitment to being a hands-on father and highlighted his desire to be fully present in his children's lives.

The renowned actor and former professional wrestler emphasized the importance of family and noted that he knows what it's like to be in an occupation that took him away from his loved ones. He made it clear that he didn't want the same situation for his daughters.

Johnson's remarks about prioritizing his family made an impact on the parties. Despite their insistence by comparing his situation to that of other politicians, Johnson reiterated that his decision was firm and grounded in his love for his daughters.

While Dwayne Johnson has been flattered by the prospect of a presidential run due to the support shown in the poll, he firmly believes that his priority at this moment is being a devoted father. As he stated in the past, he would wait, listen, and remain attuned to the wishes of the people should circumstances change in the future.

It remains to be seen if Dwayne Johnson's popularity and the potential for his political career will be revisited in the years to come. However, for now, his focus remains on his role as a father and maintaining balance in his personal and professional life.
