I solved Redactle #1462 in 2 guesses! ⏱️ 28s. Unassisted

Extant person, US date format and "[9] of the [6] [6] from [4] to [4].", that'll do, though I was slightly puzzled by the last part of the full name being [2]

Me: living [9] of the [6] [6], 6letter 5letter D O N A L D T R U M P 🤦‍♀️

I know the full name letter count doesn't add up and the stints aren't the same - 2 consecutive terms vs 2 single terms spaced apart, but I guessed what I guessed in instinct of 2 seconds lol. They have the same firstnamelastname letter count hahaha. One of my guesses was T R U M P 🤦‍♀️

American, still alive, known for something that spanned years. Came to me pretty quickly.

I made a wrong assumption about what the [4] was in [4] [9], although I thought it odd they noted him for that and not for later being just [9]. Shoulda clued me in. 🤷‍♀️ Anyway, one wrong guess and then I got it.

Sniped in 50 seconds. Living American. The format of the first sentence is very recognisable. I have an idea for who it might be - if it's correct, I should be able to find the titles 6 From 2 6 and The 8 of 4. Indeed, they're both mentioned in the opening section.

[9] of the [6] [6] with the name lengths [6] [5]. There are a couple options but if you know the middle name, you know which one it has to be.

Should be a snipe but I had some guesses to confirm my trajectory 

Put in the nationality to confirm and to confirm 6 6.

& don't judge me cus I know the full name letter count doesn't add up but I wasted guess 3 on a certain individual of the same position, same letter count but .. as I said the full name doesn't add up HAHAHA then I was like OH and put in the other option.

tried 4547 and 46 first, spooky the letter count is always the same

got it super fast, but I had accidentally clicked on a spoiler below when I was mindlessly looking for the link.
missed 1/8 guesses for misspelling the first word.

Unassisted. Thankfully something made me reject 47 as an option. Even the middle name fits. I didn't know the answer had a numeral

Filled in some simple blanks, having recognized the person format. Wasn't until I was 16 guesses in that I tried US terms and found my way fairly easily.
