Political thriller with no thrills. Nixon's evil plot was much better.

I'll guess it's 2024. An incredibly unpopular Democratic incumbant is
unlikely to win a second term. The Republican nominee is a female senator
with vaguely Trump follower ideas Patricia Turnbull (Ann Dowd). Then a
candidate appears from out of nowhere, Nate Sterling (John Cena), former
Olympic athlete (I guess track and field but they never made it clear
what he'd medalled in) and author.

Jodie Turner-Smith is an actress I don't recall. She was in the regular
cast of Jett, a series I watched but no longer remember. She was also on
the last season of The Last Ship, a show that had gotten so bad even I
was forced to stop watching.

She was also in the recent execrable Star Wars series THE ACOLYTE. She played
one of the lesbian witches that creates the Force-- a massive and unwanted
retcon of the entire Star Wars universe.

I take it there was a lack of heterosexual fantasy hot lesbian pr0n and
there was merely a reciting of grievances against cis-gendered dudes.
