I mean I think the question is really interesting as specifically heads of state who have published works. For instance many of the Founding Fathers have a multitude of works, fiction and theory, but Washington did not. Just letters. Che wrote theories and diaries, but Fidel who was leader, was far less of a writer. Half of a given cabinet is bound to have a book, but how many heads of state have published books that are not biographical?
I think narrowing it to that is interesting, and more specifically what the Trump question begs
We are not making some grand judgement on a political project based on the leaders, we are literally responding to a query about specifically heads of state. I don’t know how “something went very wrong” because people are focusing on the parameters of the conversation.
Completely off-topic, but “begging the question” is a specific term for when you assume your conclusion in the premise of your argument, rather than “raises the question” or something like that.
