The 2020 U.S. election is shaping up to be the biggest betting event of all time, betting companies say. Around half the bets on the UK-based Smarkets Exchange are on the result being declared on Tuesday or Wednesday, Patrick Flynn, political analyst at Smarkets, told GMF. The other half of those bets are on Thursday or beyond, with the majority of those on the “9 November or later” contract, Flynn said. www.reuters.com Also for those feeling bold there's 33/1 odds on Trump "To be in Russia on 1st Feb 2021" | ||

This landscaping company deal is probably to get just enough cash to pay for Barron's ticket ![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/IvUVLyM.jpg) look at this lol https://www.google.nl/maps/@40.02637,-75.0304402,3a,75y,98.48h,76.85t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sZtb5Q_Yl3hkYS-RoNhga0Q!2e0!7i16384!8i8192 | ||

It simply dies not fit their MO, they want to play both sides, always creating more or less plausible deniability. Taking Trump would do the opposite. So 5/1 for outside the US, that would sound good enough for me. But Russia specifically... Can't imagine them believing this would help their plan. He kinda lost his use personally, even though surely their diversion seeking social media initiatives will still appreciate him being around and will guel the fire. | ||

The destabilization effects on the US of Trump having a daily Russia Today talkshow would be worth it. Not to mention the state secrets. | ||

If he only had this idea earlier think of all the money he could have had having Whitehouse press briefings at Joe's Plumbing or Whataburger. Really to bad for him that this grift idea came late. .. while playing golf somewhere else, we wanna add. What a train wreck. | ||

Have the press conference at a Trump tower or Maralago or whatever, and charge all the journalists a few hundred bucks entrance fee. Also charge the country for your own stay at your own property, and for your security team, and so forth. | ||

A, russia would know these state secrets by now (assuming that Trump has the capacity to actually remember stuff). They'd also lose their kingmaker, who can influence their politics more than he ever could've if he went to russia. Imagine him peddling QAnon dipshits to his base (his base won't disappear), etc. Him going to russia is the dumbest thing he could do. edit ![[image loading]](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EmOtSiUXUAIhcK6?format=jpg&name=large) Queue the funny reviews for that landscaping company. | ||

Him fleeing to Russia would be to avoid the avalanche of court cases. Well only problem is that Trump doesn't attend security briefings. Pence was put in charge of that. So Russia would mostly strike out with such a deal, also any pilots, bodyguards with him would never be allowed back in the country as they would be arrested. Not to mention they might have targets on their back. | ||

The point of taking Trump would be to paint the US as persecuting political dissidents, a la Navalny. They don't give a shit about the parties themselves. | ||

Lisa Gordon-Hagerty, administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration, the first woman to oversee the agency in charge of the nuclear stockpile. She was required to resign on Friday. Bonnie Glick, deputy administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development. She was replaced by the acting administrator John Barsa, who had run out of time for his more senior role under the Federal Vacancies Reform Act. Neil Chatterjee, chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and a former aide to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. He was replaced as chairman, though he will remain at FERC, an independent agency, as a commissioner. https://www.npr.org/sections/live-updates-2020-election-results/2020/11/06/932376507/trump-dumps-3-agency-leaders-in-wake-of-election?t=1604755476522 | ||
