Former Trump administration official Mick Mulvaney said that Joe Biden-backing Hollywood star and Black Lives Matter supporter Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson could be one of former President Donald Trump’s serious Republican primary challengers in 2024.
After being asked by Politico who could mount a serious challenge to Trump in the 2024 GOP primary, Mulvaney said, “It’s a short list,” but oddly included The Rock on that list.
“[Florida Gov. Ron] DeSantis could give him a run for his money. [South Carolina Sen.] Tim Scott can give him a run for his money. Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson could give him a run for his money,” Mulvaney told Politico on Tuesday.
While the Black Adam and Fast and Furious star has openly flirted with the idea of running for president — albeit admitting that he doesn’t “know the first thing about politics” or “policy” — seeing the actor run in a GOP primary is not as realistic.
In 2020, The Rock made headlines after backing Black Lives Matter and hammering President Trump amid violence over the police involved death of George Floyd. “There’s going to be blood,” he said at the time.
“Where is our leader at this time, when our country is down on its knees begging, pleading, hurt, angry, frustrated, in pain? Begging and pleading with its arms out, just wanting to be heard,” the Jumanji star said in an Instagram video. “We must say the words: Black Lives Matter.”

Box-o-Rocks. Without a script these actors are mindless.
Mick Mulvaney would give Trump a run for his money. In that bizarro world where the Rock could take the GOP nomination from Trump.
The Roids as President?
That Chinese puppet couldn’t lead rats to a garbage can.
I think Mick Mulvaney needs to put the cork in the bottle.
This guy must be taking the drugs Alice took on her way down the rabbit hole.
Nonsense.
[[Pro-BLM, Biden Supporter Dwayne Johnson Would Give Trump ‘A Run for His Money’ in GOP Primary]]
Bahahahaha- Yeah sure he could- because conservatives are just right full in love with the violent domestic terrorists BLM /s
Dwayne Johnson will run for President in 2028.
When he does, he will have to take positions on issues, and that will result in his popularity evaporating.
I’d vote for The Undertaker over Rock.
Dittos doubled down.
Former Trump administration official Mick Mulvaney said that Joe Biden-backing Hollywood star and Black Lives Matter supporter Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson could be one of former President Donald Trump’s serious Republican primary challengers in 2024.
With today’s rinos, no doubt. Total sell outs. Have done nothing good for over 20 years.
Hmmmm. This article has convinced me. Convinced me that Dwayne Johnson is probably smarter than Mick Mulvaney. The Rock has no chance as a Republican primary challenger. Neither does Tim Scott. DeSantis has the best chance, but I wouldn’t bet on him if Trump runs again. DeSantis is my pick if Trump doesn’t run.
What a load of hooey.
People act like it’s so easy to just step in and run.
But back in 2015-2016 they gave Trump no chance and said he wasn’t even serious.
Trump had a honed message, unique communication skills, and outstanding talent as an organizer and a leader.
Dwayne the Rock has none of this.
The Rock surprised me on how very PC he is.
So, no, he won’t be taken seriously by many people for any top level political ambitions.
He’s not NBC, not that it matters these days.
He might be able to beat Biden in the Democrat primary.
Ok. The dems arent just in trouble...they’re quaking in their boots.
Is this the Bee?
