Hulk Hogan on Florida Senate run: 'At this moment, its a flat-out no'
Hulk Hogan says hes thought about a potential Florida Senate run, but his answer is a flat-out no at the moment.
Ive thought about it as of late, people calling my phone, driving me crazy about running for Senate. They want me to run for governor, they want me to run for mayor, the former professional wrestling star, whose real name is Terry Bollea, told TMZs Harvey Levin in a Thursday interview, when asked if hed ever consider running for Senate in the Sunshine State.
At the end of the day, Im just so confused because its like watching the politicians the Democrats and the Republicans its like nobody wants to work together, Hogan added. Its like a wrestling match, with two wrestlers that are supposed to work together and paint this beautiful wrestling picture, the Republicans and Democrats act like they hate each other and they dont want to do anything except create chaos. So I really dont want to be any part of that.
Earlier this week, Roger Stone, a former adviser to President Trump, said in an interview with Patrick Slevin that he was focused on persuading Hogan to challenge Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R) in a hypothetical Republican Senate primary.
