Is there one that originates at election day?

Just based on the data, you trim about a 2k pt dow gain out of the analysis if you originate at inauguration vs. election day.

I think Tom Hanks getting corona AIDS is important.  He’s a friendly, familiar face representative of the infected that were just an abstract concept for the vast majority of Americans.  Kudos to the Hanks for coming forth with their diagnosis, and their timing was impeccable.

“In 2020, the global economy will crash due to a global pandemic and the President of the United States will be an impeached white supremacist reality TV star imbecile that was installed via a Kremlin military intelligence operation.”
Imagine telling yourself this in 2014

I mean...fuck...just...goddamn.
We are so fucked.

It's the most important thing to happen today and I'm not kidding.

There will still be supporters who think of him as liberal Hollywood, but it casts a shadow that is harder to ignore. I hope he and the Mrs. recover quickly.

Hm - that’s weird...  he was so casual about it just a few days ago:

I wonder how he caught it...

Basketball karma is real. Just ask those bracket people. I once made a bracket for the NCAA based on whether I liked mascots or thought they were mean. Amazed at how far I got. Too bad there weren't any schools with a goldfish mascot.

 

Has anyone heard if Dr. Fauci is still employed?

He's a liberal cunt and I'll turn on him faster than I turned on Beto's pal Willie Nelson.

It makes zero sense, it’s just to hurt the leaders who rail against trump. It’s just an excuse to fight with Germany and France. 

Fuckkkkkkkkk him.

Actually, I get the logic.  Europe is blowing up, not just Italy.  Spain is probably less than a week behind Italy, and France not far behind that. Switzerland, Norway both have big numbers of cases per capita.  The biggest flaw in the logic is timing. It's too late.  He needs to changing American behavior way beyond flying to Europe.  He needs to get people to make fewer contacts with other people, particularly if they have a cough, regardless if they think they have COVID19.

Cuomo saying on CNN they have released more details and that the travel ban will not apply to American citizens.

What are the chances his aides knew that before the speech?  What are the chances they made it up when asked?

Exempting the UK is key. They have more cases than any other EU country not named Italy.

Trump thinks life is his own personal Truman show.  Someone else is pulling the levers behind the scenes and shit will always work out alright as long as he plays the part of the Developer, the Billionaire, the President.  He doesn’t have to actually DO anything.  That’s what other people are for.  He just has to show up, play make-believe, and take all the credit.  

It’s terrifying and perversely hilarious that the greatest nation in human history, at the apex of its power, elected such a clownish fraud as our leader.  

It's insane how far we've fallen and how badly we're about to pay for the sins but I'd say the apex of the USA was September 10, 2001. It's been a steady decline in most ways since then.

He's toast.  What's that site you go to for election odds?  If he is anything above 50% it's way off.  No way in hell market recovers in time for him.

There's going to be a run on trains to Britain. 

How much is BA gonna charge to get stateside?  I was in Heathrow 2 days into the computer outage a few years ago, and this is going to make that look like child’s play.

I didn’t vote for trump in 2016. But the past couple weeks has got me thinking and agreeing with the sack.We need trump to be president for the next 4 years. 

Right sack?

I agree. predictit.com

Couple lines I am on.

Trump wins popular vote, NO, @ 0.70

Dem party wins, Yes; GOP wins, No.  This is basically 50/50, but you can put more on teh line by betting #bothsides of it. 

Presidential winner Trump NO @ 0.51.  Also on Sanders No and Biden No at smaller positions.

 

There are some extremely wild positions that I will probably take some fliers on in case Biden croaks.

I know 0.70 is already high but that's a bargain. There's zero fucking chance he wins the popular vote outright. I don't care if he discovers the cure for coronavirus in his big mac.

You’re discounting foreign actors influencing the election.  Also, Does everybody just get their money back if there is no election?

Even with that, the nationally beloved Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by nearly 3,000,000 votes.

Foreign actors won't be able to tilt the popular vote.  Not sure what happens if there is no election, but if that comes to pass I doubt anyone will be worried about their predictit account balance.

I mean, he didn't call it the "chink virus" at least.  And there was definitely a chance he might.

There might be a cheaper no in his plan to ban all travel from EU but not UK.

Free money in my opinion. Turn $850 (max bet) into $1200 in 7 months. 

 

Or you could always try to get that return in today's stock market. 

I might have fucked and not pulled my money. 

I guess I'll hold forever.

Haha, Hannity still talking about how the flu is worse.  I can't stop laughing.  He's literally going completely off the rails defending Trump.  This is mind boggling.  People watch this shit all day?  That's scarier than the virus itself.
