You don’t understand betting. That’s the problem here

These are not betting odds, but, going into the election, Hillary was ahead by 7 points. CNN had Hillary up by 12 points. We all know the outcome.
Polls are like Kamala, they suck.

Only “good news” for Trump tends to be posted by some posters.

The fact is that, for now, trend lines watched by the professionals lhave shifted toward Harris. Not just snapshot polls, but trends…

The propagandists + weak minded public is a dangerous combo.

because the 'big money' knows the fix it in - in fact they are probably the biggest enabler of "the fix"

Because in the oddsmakers opinion all of the money would be on Kamala and NO republican would place a bet. Their job is to generate bets Thats all.

Loosely translated: Trump betting was/is significant enough that the House needs $ bet for Kamala to balance the House’s odds of not losing money. So they lower the payout for Trump AND raise it for Kamala to stimulate betting on her. (House makes $ off every bet placed, the “vig”)

You can see this easier in horse racing betting as sometimes there will be a far superior horse than the competition so the betting is totally lopsided until payouts for other horses gets crazy.

Vegas puts the odds in the middle of the money. They want even money so the risk to payout is balanced and their “fee” is in the middle.

Just because “fools and the money are easily departed” doesn’t mean Vegas thinks Kamala has a better chance to win. Just means more money is taken in for her.

He was leading before it. It hurt him, no doubt.


LOL. No it didn't.

He has widened his lead since then by most non dem polls....

These betting lines are totally different....and are a large part impacted by the heavy dem polls saying Harris is leading, in some cases, significantly.

Agreed. A lot on here refuse to believe the debate hurt Trump.


Well because rt after they did the Taylor endorsement and tried to kill him again when that didn’t work.

Didn’t hurt him that much.

She has been rising in the polls.



LOL the far left leaning polls

The actual good polls have her down on a national level now, which spells doom for her.

In addition, all of their actions now, going more aggressively after Trump, doing interviews, asking for another debate...their internals are obviously bad, otherwise they would lay low.

Betters don’t look at the polls. They understand that they have to figure in the amount of massive fricking voter fraud that the Democrats will engage in.

This is a sunshine pumper echo chamber.

It’s the same thing that happens on the Reddit boards. All they do is post Daily Kos articles and there’s no way in hell Harris can lose the election.

I don’t know why they do it. That’s a completely different topic but look at all the polls favoring Harris. They are way over sampled by democrats and women.

That seems an odd response to that particular post.
