I knew all that, but it’s technically not a political office so......
But yes, he was politically active in the private sector. Very active.

Trump was also very active in the politics in the business world. He certainly was involved in politics as he fought for benefits for his companies.

Lake’s resume’ as an anchor were more in line with the qualifications Jessie Ventura had when he ran for Governor and won.

Schwarzenegger might be a valid comparison, but he also had been appointed to various positions by Presidents and governors, so he also had limited experience in the political arena.
