You\u2019ve done great things. Joe, you\u2019ve had such an incredible career. You\u2019ve led in my opinion, with great compassion, and heart, and drive, but also soul. You and I talked about that in the past and how important soul is,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson also discussed his late father, Rocky \u201cSoul Man\u201d Johnson who passed away in January. \u201cJoe, you and I have talked about the relationship that you had with your father. This idea of respect and earning respect that our parents have taught us. My dad always said, \u2018Respect is given when it is earned.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<section class=\"suitcase-ad\"\/>\n<p>Johnson asked the politicians how they aim to earn the American people\u2019s respect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy doing what we say we’re going to do. By keeping our word,\u201d Biden responded. \u201cBy leveling with the American people. By taking responsibility. When we fail, acknowledge it. We’re not gonna be perfect, but take responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For her part, Harris said they would build trust on their power to \u201cspeak truth.”<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe’re going to have to be honest about what healing will require.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, everyone wasn’t pleased with the actor’s announcement.<\/p>\n<section class=\"suitcase-ad\"\/><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/pop-culture\/2020\/09\/dwayne-the-rock-johnson-endorses-joe-biden-for-president\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been endorsed by Dwayne \u201cThe Rock\u201d Johnson.
