checking the possibilities of multiple type of inputs with or and if statements python

I've been trying to get this to work but cant any suggestions. what it does Is it only goes to the first if statement even if i type in something entirely different than what it accepts. and clue how to solve this problem

while True:
    admensus = input("option: ")
    if int(1) == admensus or "add" == admensus:
         add()
    elif int(2) == admensus or "no" == admensus:
         menu()
