Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

I used to think like this but now I realise that being in power is much harder than I thought, especially in the context of a democracy. Inevitably, in order to get something done, you usually need the cooperation of your political opponents, which usually requires to make compromises that you're uncomfortable with or make you go back on campaign promises.

That said, I think I could do a better job than Trump since I think I could at least manage to not put myself in so much legal trouble.
