A doubt regarding the argument for the permissibility of appointing an authority other than in travel, based on the hadith of appointing an authority in travel; so what is your answer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The answer to the evidence for appointing an authority is that the appointment is not intended to be related to travel; that is, the appointment of groups. The evidence is the hadith:
It is not permissible for three who are in a desolate place of the earth except that they appoint one of them as their leader. لا يحلُّ لثلاثة يكونون بفلاة من الأرض إلا أمَّرُوا عليهم أحدهم
. "In a desolate place of the earth" means, that is, any.

The Shaykh : What is the text of the hadith?

The questioner :
It is not permissible for three who are in a desolate place of the earth except that they appoint one of them as their leader. لا يحلُّ لثلاثة يكونون بفلاة من الأرض إلا أمَّروا عليهم أحدهم
.

The Shaykh
except that they appoint one of them as their leader إلا أمَّروا عليهم أحدهم
, this is a problem!! Is this hadith authentic?

The questioner : By Allah, I do not know.

The Shaykh : Okay; what do you say about a man who adopts such a call and does not distinguish between an authentic hadith and a weak one?
This is the third question.
Other than that?
