(If you aren't an American, assume for this hypothetical that you were suddenly granted citizenship and all other requirements are waived.)

This prompt hurts my brain.

You are the President of the United States.

You are the leader of a nation. Hundreds of millions of people are depending on you.

How many tootsie rolls would it take you to sell out to a rich fuck who has that many tootsie rolls?

Fuck you. I have 4 years. We need to kick our fossil fuel addiction. People deserve privacy. Domestic terrorists need to feel fear again. The government needs to be reminded it serves the people...

Let me drive the bargaining up to 100 million, then let me shove a red hot fire poker up your ass and leave you in a dank cell to die aching.

Then let me live a decent life where I might not feel the excess of being rich, but my diner tabs are paid for, my bar tabs are covered, and I have friends who make sure my home is safe.
