Quote:Welp...One can place bets on it...


The odds that President Trump will leave office before his first term is officially over are higher than ever, according to overseas bookies.

Ladbrokes, one of the largest betting sites in the world, announced today that it has tweaked the odds that Trump leaves office early via impeachment or resignation to 4/5, or 55 percent. That means that if you were to bet $100, you would get just an $80 profit. Previously, the odds were 11/10, meaning that a $100 bet would yield $110 if it paid off.


Nice how the world recognizes our achievements.

You have to look at this from the perspective of a gambling house which always, always, makes money on their wagers. They are keenly aware of the legions of wishful thinkers out there who are more willing to bet money on their virulent politics than true odds. What your bias perceives as international condemnation of a man you hate, they see as profits.


Personally, I would never gauge the political climate of my country through the lens of a British gambling house, but to each their own.
