The presidential election - and I mean not only this US election, but generally - is not about electing an emperor who can do what he/she thinks is the best but more about electing a remotely controlled mascot. And the remote controllel is not in our/your hand, except you have a too big to fail business and/or a lot of cash on your account. Sometimes good emperos get elected by accident, but they have a short life expectancy.
A heavily subjective answer to your question: there would be no difference between the two presidencies. Don't waste your time with gathering information on the mascots. Just lean back and enjoy the show.
