Current time to retire for Macron or possible White House resident? (5)
I believe the answer is:
inuit
'macron or possible white house resident?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'current time to retire for' is the wordplay.
'current' becomes 'I' (symbol for electric current).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'to' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'retire' says the letters should be written backwards.
'for' becomes 'uni' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'uni' reversed gives 'inu'.
'i'+'t'='it'
'it' after 'inu' is 'INUIT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inuit that I've seen before include "A Canadian eskimo" , "Arctic natives" , "People inhabiting the Arctic" , "people from northern Canada" , "A North American eskimo" .)
