Former pro wrestler and Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura is considering trying to pin down President Donald Trump by running against him in 2020.

If he does decide to run, the former governor – who served from January of 1999 through January of 2003 – says Trump “will not have a chance” against him.

Were the 67-year-old to run, he claims The Green Party has shown some interest in him as a candidate.

“I haven’t made a decision yet because it’s a long time off,” Ventura told TMZ. “If I do do it, Trump will not have a chance. For one, Trump knows wrestling. He participated in two Wrestlemanias. He knows he can never out-talk a wrestler, and he knows I’m the greatest talker wrestling’s ever had. So, if I go for it he’s history, and he knows it.”

Prior to the election in 2016, Ventura considered running as a libertarian.
