The Rock Beats Donald Trump in New Presidential Poll

Public Policy Polling released a new poll that asked a variety of questions, including a couple about The Rock. There has been some talk recently about The Rock thinking about running for president, despite having basically no public political views other than meaningless phrases like “we need strong honest leadership.”

The poll asks: “If the candidates for President next time were Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson running as a Democrat and Republican Donald Trump, who would you vote for?”
– The Rock – 42%
– Donald Trump – 37%
– Not sure – 21%

Another question asks: “Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson?”
– Favorable – 36%
– Unfavorable – 13%
– Not sure – 50%

For comparison, the poll says that Bernie Sanders beats Trump in a hypothetical race 52-39. They didn’t ask about Hillary Clinton in this poll.
