The push for Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson 2020 has officially begun
If you think about it, in the grand scheme of the cosmos, 2020 is just around the corner. So what better time than now to register a political committee with the Federal Election Commission to Draft The Rock?
A recent Public Policy Polling survey actually showed that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would beat President Trump in the 2020 election, 42 percent to 37 percent. But "three and a half years is a long ways away," a less cosmically-minded Johnson told Jimmy Fallon recently. "So we'll see."
The clock is ticking. Kanye, hop to it.
