Johnson told Noah it has never been his goal to be in politics.

Matter of fact, theres a lot of things about politics that I hate, he said.

I know what its like to be in an occupation that took me away… he told Noah.

I dont want that for my little ones now.

When the poll initially came out in 2021, he told USA Today he was open to the challenge.

I would consider a presidential run in the future if thats what the people wanted, he shared.

Truly I mean that, and Im not flippant in any way with my answer.

That would be up to the people.

So I would wait, and I would listen.

I would have my finger on the pulse and my ear to the ground.

I have a lot of estrogen in my house.

And I love it, stressing the importance of being a present father.
