Of course Trumps odds are going to be short, he is going to be one of the horses in a two horse race, while the other horse has not been declared. Its like Real Madrid being in the final of the Champions league already while the other side of the draw hasnt even played their quarter and semi finals.

To use your analogy, that would happen to Real if their competitors were narrowing to easier opposition for them to beat I mean not that I put a huge amount of faith in politics bettings or odds.

I my self am a horticulturist and work with a lot of plants and I absolutely cannot stand clearing brambles and nettles, cannot stand the look of them. They're prickly and they graze you they sting they're not attractive to look at. But nettle tea has such healthy attributes and it's a great fertiliser, take brambles and you can make blackberry jam from them, make creels and baskets out of them they're very flexible and they're great pollinators, so are nettles butterflies love them. I think Trump can be a loose cannon and be flamboyant and he can sting now and again. But like a bramble or rose you prune it and trample it, hate it curse it. It doesn't matter it'll still flourish. Look at all the dumb people who's lives and hours minutes and seconds are spent obsessing with the Don and he couldn't give two fecks what they think. Give him a lot of **** and he just grows and grows, and the haters, negative debaters and craturs just get angrier, stressed and messed up. If you're able to look at the world organically, technically and factually all in one variable then its easier to accept the good with the bad. Thats an admirable way to look at Trump, he's able to rise above all that sh1t and keep his roots intact in the **** and come out flowering and smelling of roses. If I discovered a new rose or flower I'd call it the Don.... Food for thought

How am I meant to make a load of profit again from this at short prices? The way it's going he'll be a cert before spring. One bonus is PPower will likely pay out early^ for publicity, this week would be nice (but more likely Oct). It's clear now the whole impeachment plan (which is over now, btw), has done nothing but only assist the Donald further, well done everyone.

Winning_Stroke wrote: » I don't think you understand really... Would Real's odds just keep shortening owing to them being in the final? No in general it means the money on them is increasing. You have to then ask why that is. A poorer opposition emerging could do it. Or other factors. But no, odds don't just shorten for the laugh. I mean this is pretty basic stuff.

Election night was the super extra bonus party, with so much hype from the media for Hillary, the Traders let DT's price out to 10/1, a few hours later there was tears (not from me).
