    Id vote for him fuck it

    The Rock comes across as a more likable, dumb agreeable, VP type.

    Put Dana White as the main ticket and The Rock as his VP and then you have my attention.
    Give me a fucking break. Please provide proof Dwayne Johnson is dumb or agreeable. It doesn’t exist. The dude is smart, charismatic, and makes great business decisions. I’m not saying he should be president, but he’s a better choice than either of the options we’ll have in November.

    So is the Rock. Why would He ruin a great life by becoming President.

    Trump had a great life before He ran. He never expected to win. He has had a great time in some ways as an egomaniac. And has tried to fulfill his campaign promises the best He could.


    If somehow Twitter wasn’t the crack that He can’t stop smoking, He would have been a top 10 President, even through all of this bs.

    The other party and MSM has tried to impeach him since before He was elected.

    The other party and MSM used a global pandemic to normalize the biggest seccession of rights in our countries history.

    And then once that got stale, they used one bad actor of the police to engineer an absolute insurrection to further topple any order in our country.

    Can someone tell me why the Rock would ever wish to cede his life to be a President In this country?

    THIS is exactly why good qualified and valuable people across all levels of government won't run for office.

    Not worth the shit show that comes with it. Keyboard jockeys trying to 'out' whatever the fuck happened 30 years ago, every social media post dissected.

    All that are left are incompetents, narcissists and sociopaths. What a deal. Fuck that.

    That video from the 80s of Trump being asked if he wanted to run for president and without hesitation he says no, essentially because he wouldn't want that life and enjoys what he does, but if he felt he realty needed to do it for the country he would.

    Tweet storms aside, If he holds on in November and stays the course with China he will probably go down as one of the biggest martyrs in American history.

    The dude is absolutely taking bullets daily for the betterment of America while half the country has been hypnotised into a rage trying to tear it down.

    I've heard many people say that Trump never expected to win. But I disagree. A guy like him doesn't do anything halfway. If he didn't believe in his odds I don't think it could have happened.
    I’m not saying that Trump didn’t work everyday until He dropped to win the Presidency. He wanted to win.

    I think that even He could see that the odds were against him though, bravado aside.

    It was win win all the way around for Trump, win or lose.

    If He won, He’s President. If He loses, He turns an already strong TV presence into an Institution.

    I paid close attention to He, Melania and families manner once Hilary conceded that night.

    All were shocked before they were happy.

    Every person in America needs to listen to that episode. Jocko is so spot on, it’s fucking insane.

    Completely agree. Excellent pod.


    Jocko suggested, among others:

    Every officer:
    1) minimum purple belt in BJJ
    2) 20% of their time spent training - including combat, de-escalation, situation drills
    3) psych evals, updates and continuing treatment
    4) must MAINTAIN minimum level of fitness, not just coming out of academy

    Every person take a "how to handle police encounter"
    1) let them see your hands at all times
    2) slow movements
    3) declare actions


    They talked about the recent video of the Bellevue cop who threw that girl to the ground and tried to choke her out. Rogan opined cop is a "pussy" and it was the weakest rear-naked choke he's seen in a while. No need for that to escalate.

    They also both said taking away the opportunity for an officer to choke is FS - especially w/ adequate BJJ training. Jocko made the point, what else are you supposed to do to make someone comply - beat them over the head w/ your baton multiple times? Cause severe CTE. Plus the imagery w/ cell phone cameras, that's a disaster visual.
    I think requiring a Purple Belt in BJJ is a bit of an ask. Definitely would be useful. I believe required strength training and wrestling skills could help a ton. Most cops played Football and many wrestled in school already. Certainly there needs to be more between the ears training as well.

    Floyd aside. Most of the shit you see escalates due to cops lacking strength or game plan when they have to roll around on the concrete. They get thrown around like rag dolls.

    Being a cop isn’t like joining the National Guard for free College. You have to be good at Mano y Mano without guns upon hire. If you’re not, get into Forensics.
