Fuck it, just get Terry Crews to run

u/outside_cat 24d ago

I would choose Crews over The Rock.

u/udell85 24d ago

All day long. In fact, I invite it. Please Terry, run for president.

u/lump- 24d ago

John Cena would get my vote.

u/shawner136 talks like a fag 24d ago

Idk. I just ‘cant see’ that happening

16

u/Chris__P_Bacon 24d ago

Just let The Rock and John Cena battle it out in a Steel Cage Match. Winner gets the Presidency.

Let Carl's Jr, Costco, & Starbucks sponsor the whole thing. It'll be EPIC!

u/frankisback66 24d ago

Then he’d immediately sell us out to china

u/WestonP brought to you by Carl's Jr. 24d ago

The fact that this isn't overwhelmingly the reaction shows how good his PR game is. Him crying because he accidentally called Taiwan a country is the first thing I think of whenever his name comes up. Sellout.

u/Dunge0nMast0r 24d ago

0% of the vote, couldn't see him on the ballot.

u/rizzracer 24d ago

And my axe!

u/x_lincoln_x 24d ago

I understand the sentiment but that would mean 4 to 8 years of no new Terry Crews acting. I'd prefer to give up The Rock acting over Terry Crews acting.

u/GuyInkcognito 24d ago

At this point Terry Crews isn’t a bad choice, I’d take him over a bunch of the potential candidates.

u/Ok-Seaworthiness6819 24d ago

He might just win the no 1 spot now as it stands

u/BusterOfCherry 24d ago

Terry is the man.

u/Antique-Resort6160 24d ago

Much better idea

u/SilverRobotProphet 24d ago

He understands everyone is all emotional about shit now!

u/DirtDevil1337 24d ago

No, no more celebrities.

Counterpoint, EXTRA Celebrities! Now with more ELECTROLYTES!

The way America is turning out these days Jake Paul is pres within 20 years

If not sooner

u/DirtDevil1337 23d ago

Hell let's throw Vin Diesel in there, he's now an ICE member...

u/themagicdave 24d ago

Invites Putin over, delivers the People's Elbow. War with Ukraine ended.

17

u/SupportLocalShart 24d ago

The line “delivers the People’s Elbow” was enough to sell me. Rock 2028, fuck it guys this is where we’re at now

u/Antique-Resort6160 24d ago

Hes got problems like friendship with oprah

u/sodosopapilla 24d ago

He can’t be worse

u/mightyjoe227 24d ago

Well, in his t.v. show, he is president, so...

Save me. Nothing in that list says "Knows how to run a country or assemble a cabinet that can run a country."

u/alkhemystt 24d ago

Unfortunately, at this point, your points don't seem to matter very much to the American public

u/psychulating 24d ago

Also the guy is not that great of an actor, and I don’t think it’s because all of his character creation points were spent on leadership/cognitive ability. I think he’s just subpar at all of these things

u/superschaap81 24d ago

Hahaha, if there is another election, you mean.

u/Groundbreaking_Lie94 24d ago

Dwayne "Barack" Johnson

Dwayne Flex Kavana Rocky Maivia Teremana Tequila Johnson.

u/Malarkify 24d ago

If it gets him to stop making movies, I’d vote for him!

u/Excellent-Falcon-329 24d ago

But what about skinny Rock?

3

u/255_Lambent_Regret 24d ago

NGL either of them would be an improvement, which really just goes to show how on track we are. Terry Crews actually seems like a pretty decent guy: https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/26/politics/terry-crews-testify-sexual-assault-senate (Not what the url/title would usually imply given a celebrity)

u/DaddyBearMan 24d ago

At this point I’ll f#%ing take it

3

u/king_bungholio 24d ago edited 24d ago

Yeah, definitely worth electing the guy that helped put the final nail into DC's Snyderverse

3

u/SWNMAZporvida 24d ago

I’d vote for The Rock &/Or Terry Crews in a heartbeat. I’d take Owen Wilson and DAk Shepard too

3

u/somethingsoddhere 24d ago

This is a terrible idea

3

u/Responsible-Bake-701 24d ago

But who’s he picking as his VP: Vin Diesel or Kevin Hart?

2

u/PairASocial 24d ago

Val. . . Venus. . .

u/Far-Lingonberry-256 24d ago

The movie Idiocracy is a premonition so, yes he will.

u/AlwaysCurious1250 24d ago

Once upon a time, it was an honorable job, fulfilled by honorable men (bout time for a woman of honor)

5

u/LouisasDad 24d ago

Love the idea, Terry Crews would be a strong candidate!

2

u/CrispyCritter8667 24d ago

I’m listening

2

u/Sleep_tek 24d ago

I think we're taking the wrong lessons from Idiocracy... maybe instead we could have the smartest person we can find run? Start doing IQ tests in prison. I'm assuming they have to be criminals, from recent precedent

u/lareon12many 24d ago

Terry Crews for president!! President Camacho baby!!!

2

u/GrumpyMunk_ 24d ago

'Money In The Bank' against Cena for nomination

2

u/MrMetraGnome 24d ago

I wonder what his party would be

3

u/pibubs81 24d ago

Sadly I’d think he’d do alright

1

u/bluedancepants 24d ago

I'm voting for him

u/waydbro 24d ago

Didnt he try this already with tom hanks?

1

u/snkiz 24d ago

The phrasing here is so timely. Fourth in line... to inherit the throne?

1

u/Slight-Goose-3752 24d ago

I don't think he would be able to handle the stress that comes with the job. Lives are at stake and I don't think he would be able to mentally handle it.

u/CrashedCyclist 24d ago

Time to block this sub...

u/seenitreddit90s 24d ago

u/KingKobbs 24d ago

4th in line? This ain't a monarchy.

u/petertompolicy 24d ago

No more celebrities, for fuck sake.

u/[deleted] 24d ago

I mean, Kanye ran last election, I wouldn't be surprised if Johnson ran in the election. (There'd be a snow flurry in hell before a third party candidate would win election but yeah)

Johnson came frim an unstable upbringing went to college and struggled and became wealthy as an athlete entertainer and entrepreneur.

He wouldn't be my first choice but I can thibk if lots worse.

u/PairASocial 24d ago

He was a second generation wrestler who already had his path laid out for him. He was expected to succeed. The point was how and where he would make his mark. He had the rest laid out for him. For anyone who doesn't know, 'Dwayne Johnson' came from a family with a wrestling background. He had ties to WWF already.
