 I absolutely need to do the same. During services at my church we usually do say some prayers for them but I never really do when I’m praying on my own and I should. The one we say a couple times at church is  “For our country, the president, all those in public service, and for our armed forces everywhere, let us pray to the Lord.” Or generally like that and then the congregation responds “lord have mercy” maybe every time any of this election campaigning stuff starts to irritate me (as it generally does 😅) I will try to say that prayer instead of just staying frustrated 
 Great idea! 
 And I got so frustrated today so perfect timing 😂 thank you for the inspiration!! 🙏🏻 
 Same
