The Rock has political ambitions like Arnold did. That is what his increasingly loud mouth is about. And no I did not listen to it, don't need to this is all about his future in politics. Just another political pimp saying what he thinks need to be said to build up his political base.

Indeed, but the fools do not even understand that Mr. Floyd's death, while tragic and unacceptable, was not race related;

My opinion...
Hollywierdos need not apply.
Millions appreciate that he is not only a celebrity, but a celebrity who has cogent thoughts and is able to express them in an erudite manner.

His words have an impact.
