Would you rather be POTUS or have x-ray vision?

If you choose POTUS, you get both terms, and a guarantee not be assassinated, maimed, etc. If you choose x-ray vision, remember, casinos have tech to know if you are "surprised" when you win, and won't last very long at the high-stakes blackjack table.

I would never want to be president. Easy question.

x-ray vision, could find many ways to make money with that outside of gambling.

Half the country is going to hate you as POTUS even if you do a good job.

X-ray vision-no question. I'd never have to go to strip club ever again, and could make billions freelancing my talent or as a government contractor.

But I have to ask-does getting to be President come with a First Lady like Melania? Because if so, there might be a slight second thought on the matter.

Exalted High Potentate with a godlike ability to do whatever I wanted? I.E. Trump's new BFF Kim Jong.

Sure. Sounds like it would be a hoot.

Actually being the President of the United States would be a horrible job. Long hours, hard decisions, and half the country thinks you are Satan incarnate. Not to mention the entire world outside of the US will think you are at best a bumbling jackass. The only benefit is that you can make tons of money afterwards giving speeches to big money donors.

The POTUS is a modern day version of the ancient god-kings. We worship them when anything goes right, even if they didn't have diddly to do with it, but as soon as something goes wrong we hang them.

X-Ray vision. I could be a doctor and then run as president after a few Nobels.

But you can troll on level above everyone.

I was thinking that telling anyone about your x-ray vision ability would be a bad idea.

1) They would not pay you, they would torture you.

2) They would dissect your eyeballs/brain to try to replicate it for them.

3) Would you want the ladies to know you could do that?

When you say x-ray, do you mean I can see through things, or I can pick out metal and dense objects like bone when I look at stuff?

He probably doesn't have the security clearance for that.

The ability to see through layers of any material that are within your normal range of vision. So you could see what is in the trunk of a car as though it were open. But you could not see what was in the trunk of a car 10 miles away.

Definitely X-Ray Vision. You could use it to treat injuries, kill people, prevent terrorism, and see who has good stuff to steal.

I keep a low profile IRL and don't like attention from people I don't know, being President would be torture.

Well, we now know for sure that there aren't any aliens secretly living in the U.S. If they were, Trump would tweeted about it by now. He would have said that they were all on his side and that he welcomes their support. That man is addicted to his tweeter.

lol, you think they tell the President about ETs? He's a temporary government employee, he doesn't get to know about that stuff.
