Jesse Ventura: I Almost Resigned From The Hall Of Fame On Three Occasions Because Of Donald Trump

Jesse Ventura does not respect the type of person Donald Trump is.

Outside of the pro wrestling ring, Jesse Ventura has found success in politics where he held office as the Governor of Minnesota from 1999 until 2003. Another person who is part of the WWE Hall of Fame by the name of Donald Trump also found success when he became the President of the United States.

When speaking with Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Ventura spoke about the kind of person he thinks Trump is and how he lost respect for him before adding that he has almost resigned from the WWE’s Hall of Fame on more than three occasions because of the former President.

“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.”

When it was noted that Ventura and Trump were friendly at WrestleMania 20, Ventura replied, “He ain’t the same man. He ain’t the same guy, and you learn more about people as time goes on.”

While Trump is set to run again for President, Ventura has endorsed Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz to be the next step forward in trying to change the world into a much better place.
