Not if you do it like Francis Underwood
I think it really depends on your personality. If you a workaholic with a huge ego that loves attention you will probably love it.
Of course that shyt is awful. Not worth the headache if you're not in it for Public service or to be a puppet.
If you want to be a crooked politician with less work, being a congressman is better. Just become one for a few years, then segue to a network news commentator gig or become a lobbyist afterwards. Easy money.
Then you will be terrible.What if you have a huge ego and love attention but are not a workaholic??![]()
