Mark Burdett is the President of the United States in Hitman: Damnation, presumably Tom Stewart's successor. First elected in 2008, his approval ratings were drastically low by the time he ran for reelection in 2012. Unemployment rose to 23%, domestic terrorism was at an all-time high which drove Burdett to create a police state, and gas prices skyrocketed despite Burdett being the first president to negotiate with terrorists and terror-sponsoring nations.
