Glenn Jacobs otherwise known as the wrestler Kane is now the Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee. He’s a Ron Paul Republican populist type.

Here’s his victory speech.

And here’s an interview he did after he won a few days ago.

This is one of the impacts of Donald Trump’s win in 2016. It has encouraged non-politicians to seek political office at different levels of government. It is something that is sorely needed considering the mess that so-called “traditional” politicians have created for our country.

Hopefully we’ll see more of this type of thing moving forward. Having Ron Paul type Republicans and populists in power is certainly better than what we have now in most public offices.
