Jesse Ventura can’t stand convicted felon and former President Donald Trump these days, and he says he nearly resigned from the WWE Hall of Fame due to Trump being in it.
Ventura, who was Minnesota’s governor from 1999 to 2003, recently appeared on the “Insight With Chris Van Vliet” podcast to discuss his thoughts on his former friend.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On whether he still has political aspirations: “If had ballot access in all 50 states, and I were allowed in the debates, I’d be the next President of the United States. Right now. I have an objection to one of these candidates. I object to him, and I can say him so you know who it is now. I can object to him because he is in the wrestling hall of fame. I’ve almost resigned from it on two or three occasions because of that.”
On having previously been friendly with Trump at WrestleMania 20: “He ain’t the same man. He ain’t the same guy, and you learn more about people as time goes on.”
