The Russos said for the sake of the Avengers movies they never even thought about the question of whether Trump was President during the Snap However, both Agents of Shield and Runaways vaguely imply that the Trump/Clinton election happened in 2016 and Trump won

AoS has someone snarkily quote "Nevertheless, she persisted" and Runaways has people wearing pink pussy hats and "I'm With Her" T-shirts, with them specifically saying they took them out of storage and changed them to "I'm With Gert" to be "less depressing"

(Okay 0.03% is a global percentage, it's 0.16% of the US, so it's understandable it's worse for us here)
