We're faced with a stark choice for their latest Presidential elections. A candidate by the name of Donald Trumpet, or a more established player named Leprosi.
Donald Trumpet aims to “Make the Inner Nine Systems Great Again!” by building a wall to keep pirates out and making the pirates pay for it. He plans to fix the economy “I have the best economic plans” although it is unclear how any of these goals will be achieved.
Promising to grab Developers Fluffy Kitten Studios “by the kitten”, Trumpet suggests he will force the developers to fix more bugs.
Previously completely unknown to the playerbase and with no apparent government or political experience, Trumpet is pitching against against establishment candidate Leprosi, who has been a Star System Senator for several terms and has numerous achievements and alliances within the community.
Presidents can approve gates to and from the inner nine systems, change the prices paid for resources there, and designate a system to be guarded by UNCA dreadnoughts - eliminating piracy in that system.
