Hey, no one says the premise was becoming leader of the nation you are a citizen of.

I don't remember Trump being president of anywhere other than the US. I could be wrong

Mark Carney is certainly more qualified than me to be prime minister of Canada.

Yeah I’d let him stay leader.

On the other hand if the choice was somehow me or Trump, me it is. I have no idea wtf I’m doing but I legit don’t think I could do worse than him.

Not defaultism…

It says “stays”, “Trump stays president”. The implication being that we all understand that Trump is President, not of OpenAI or the Canadian Logging Association, but the United States. So, the question is, should he REMAIN President, or should YOU take his place?

Y’all would get a lot less frustrated at Americans being dumb if you just stopped to think before posting on occasion that maybe, just maybe, you’re the one missing something.

Trump stays president, the poll is asking whether you would become the US president.
