In a [_GQ_](http://www.gq.com/story/dwayne-johnson-for-president-cover "undefined") profile out Wednesday, the wrestler-turned-actor discussed his political views. And when asked about Trump’s now-stalled [travel ban](http://time.com/4770355/trump-travel-ban-appeals-court/ "undefined") on refugees from a number of Muslim-majority countries, Johnson was unequivocal in his response. “I completely disagree with it,” he said of the policy. “I believe in our national security to the core, but I don’t believe in a ‘ban’ that bans immigrants. I believe in inclusion. Our country was built on that, and it continues to be made strong by that. And the decision felt like a snap judgment… It grew to heartache, it grew to a great deal of pain, it grew to a great deal of confusion, and it had a lot of people scrambling.” Johnson further elaborated on his potential plans for higher office. “I think that it’s a real possibility,” he said of a possible political run. “Personally, I feel that if I were president, poise would be important. Leadership would be important. Taking responsibility for everybody. \[If I didn’t agree with someone\] on something, I wouldn’t shut them out. I would actually include them. The first thing we’d do is we’d come and sit down and we’d talk about it.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4773807/the-rock-on-trump-travel-ban/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4773807/the-rock-on-trump-travel-ban/"},"headline":"The Rock Completely Disagrees With President Trump's Travel Ban: 'I Believe in Inclusion'","datePublished":"2017-05-10T15:22:01.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:43:30.099Z","description":"\"I believe in inclusion.\"","url":"https://time.com/4773807/the-rock-on-trump-travel-ban/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","the rock"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf2eb4982f8b8f41e/6988ccb98fd2eedb06356fcd/the-rock.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf2eb4982f8b8f41e/6988ccb98fd2eedb06356fcd/the-rock.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"\"The Fate Of The Furious\" New York Premiere","caption":"\"The Fate Of The Furious\" New York Premiere","creditText":"Kevin Mazur—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4773807/the-rock-on-trump-travel-ban/","name":"The Rock Completely Disagrees With President Trump's Travel Ban: 'I Believe in Inclusion'"}}]}] ```
