Hulk Hogan Hints at Political Aspirations: "I'll Rule with an Iron Fist"

[Social Media]

 

Wrestling icon Hulk Hogan has suggested he might venture into politics if the need arises. During a Fox News interview on Friday, the 70-year-old WWE Hall of Famer, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, expressed his willingness to serve in a political capacity, stating, “We need somebody in there that’s got some common sense, you know what I’m saying? So if you need a president or a vice president, I’ll volunteer and take this country over, and I’ll rule with an iron fist.” Hogan emphasized that his leadership would be guided by "a flat tax and nothing but common sense," firmly asserting, "I know right from wrong, brother!"

 

This isn’t the first time Hogan has flirted with the idea of entering politics. Back in 2018, he considered running for the U.S. Senate in Florida, motivated by encouragement from supporters urging him to pursue a political career. However, he ultimately decided against making the move at that time.

 

Hogan's latest remarks come as he makes appearances on Fox News to promote his new venture, Real American Beer. Reflecting on his decision to enter the beer industry, Hogan explained, “I had this crazy idea because I saw how competitive the beer industry was, and I saw what happened with Bud Light and their whole promotion that crashed and burned. I saw this crazy open lane.” He was referring to Bud Light’s controversial marketing partnership with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney last year, which led to a significant backlash from conservative circles and resulted in the brand losing its 20-year status as the top-selling beer in the United States.

 

In contrast, Hogan’s Real American Beer aims to unite people. The cans prominently feature an image of Hogan waving an American flag, a symbol of his goal to "bring America back together, one beer at a time" — transcending party lines and other societal divides.

 

The prospect of Hulk Hogan, a legendary figure in professional wrestling, stepping into the political arena might seem far-fetched to some. However, his candid comments and strong stance on issues such as a flat tax and common sense governance have already sparked discussions about his potential candidacy. Whether or not Hogan seriously pursues a political career remains to be seen, but his willingness to consider it underscores his enduring influence and the unique appeal he holds for many Americans.

MADA - Make America Drunk Again

Hogan is just as big a pathological liar as the orange turd, and also a convicted felon. I guess he'll run with the MAGA Republicans

We already have one meat-head who wants to rule America with an iron fist - perhaps Hulk could become his enforcer.

Good grief, typical leftist come here to chime in with mindless reactionary name calling due to the lack of any intellectual fortitude.

YAAY!!!! already had at least one professional actor. Why not an actor who is also a strong man?

He could wrestle those pesky Chinese/Russians/North Koreans/Iranians/Afghanistanians(sic)...etc. into submission and make congress submit to his will.🤣😂

The “liberals” are in real need of manly role models. Perhaps it will inspire the left to scrounge up a couple.

I think Hulk Hogan would be far better than the two old dinosaurs that are currently

running for president. Are some people afraid of common sense?

A candidate for our time.   

Maybe, I'm so stoked Hulk Hogan & Bubba; The Love Sponge, were able reconcile & drop the legal fight. Hulks sex tapes, banging Bubbas wife Heather. Followed quickly by ‘Hogan Knows Best’ reality show getting cancelled, as Hulks then wife Linda filed divorce papers & pretty PO’d about it all. Nasty, sure, but something any candidate in todays world might face. At the end of the day, Hulk & Bubba made the switch & dumped the b----- . Just so happy Hulk & Bubba reconciled.  Bro love, it’s a beautiful thing.

Imagine The Hulk and The Trump as a tag team.

 

Unstoppable.
