Says it all really.

Sadly most of the Trumpets I know are are far from wealthy.

So, how many of we threadists have a bet on this election?

I have £20 on the cantaloupe cretin. If he wins, I get enough for a decent bottle of red.

If he loses, I will be WAY happier, for obvious reasons.

I haven't got any further than eyeing up the 50/1 offer (before I realised it was nonsense) and trying to decide what would be the optimum sum to place.

I'm inclined to spend the £20 on some quality mementoes of the Apricot Asehole, to keep and treasure.

This Donald Trump Toilet Brush seems to be very reasonably priced, a lovely item which is both charmingly lifelike and also practical for use on a daily basis.

I could get 17 of those instead of the wine.

It’s definitely taken a dive

I used to regularly buy items from Los Angeles sent international first class letter post

Average delivery time was 3 days.

Last 1st class I had from the US(VA) took 35 days.

I have £10 on the tangerine turd, will get me £28.75 if he wins from Skybet. not a lot, but enough to take the edge of the disappointing news

And no consolation if the Orange Ogre gets to spread his evil influence across the globe. We could all end up worse off.

No, it isn't. The idea is to lessen the horror on the day, in a tiny way.

I can't.

It's like someone paying you a grand to stamp a kitten to death. Sure, you're a grand richer but damn...

Not much stair dominating going on with that.

I totally get where you're coming from, but I bet a lot of people betting on trumplethinskin are doing so to soften the blow in a teeny way the fkwit actually wins.

Many people say that stamping kittens to death at a grand a time is Trump's main source of income.

I'm officially calling it, Donald J. Trump for 4 more years.

You could be pretty wealthy next week then if you've got a few quid to put up:

I intend to be (wealthy, that is).

I have put £5,000 on Trump to become president again. Not, at the above odds or bookies mind. Let's just say I will be counting my winnings next week. Before anyone says, I'm not trolling and 5k is a big deal to me, quite a chunk of my savings but hey, it's easy cash to win.

As I say, quote me if you must and see I was right. That's confidence for you. Just like Trump himself.

Custard on your betting slip showing a £5000 bet.

Also the exact terms of the bet - is this just on the 2020 election, or does the bet stay open until Trump either hypothetically wins the Presidency in a subsequent election or dies? Presumably he wouldn't be confirmed as the next President until duly sworn in, and that wouldn't be until January?

I just looked into this and I believe you can only place a bet of £1 for new customers on a mobile device. The winnings i.e. £50 maybe paid out as free bets worth £50, worth looking into but it's not what it seems

What is it that makes you so confident? Is it just the idea that the polls weren't correct in 2016, therefore they cannot be again?

Custard test has been called - prbably won't hear from that poster again.
As said this morning, is it there are a number of said individuals who just like to troll, or is it that we have the same few returnees with multiple accounts?

[Byker28i]

Trump's debt totals that are known about are at least $1.1 billion. About $900 million of that debt will come due in Trump's second term, should he win re-election.

Tempted to put £100 on Biden, win win for me either way then... Although I'd rather lose £100 in this case.

Not sure, but they have in common an obvious intention to have a go at mild trolling. I actually would not be surprised if most of these accounts are actually just resurrections of Noneed, Down and Out, and maybe even funkycoldribena.
