The odds of Donald Trump winning the Republican nomination are up from 1% in late July to 19% now on Pivit, an interactive prediction marketplace that combines public opinion, news and data to predict the live odds of election outcomes.

Over the last month, the billionaire business man has topped several national polls that show him leading the Republican pack of 17 candidates.

Jeb Bush, who is at 24% odds to take the GOP nomination on the Pivit marketplace.

Pivit is a game and with live odds that will change as the public weighs in on the increasing or decreasing chance that a candidate or party wins an election. Players can forecast when the odds will change and compete with friends and experts to climb to the top of the leader board.

To date, I’ve gotten away without knowing a whole lot about pivot tables and pivot data and pivot charts in Excel, so feel fairly confident in my ability of not knowing a whole lot about this new Pivot prediction game. I’m old fashioned, so I’ll just stick to what my gut tells me.

Trump is going to talk himself out of the Presidency with false claims and petty Twitter disputes.

He needs to stop with the petty disputes and also stop with the false claims.

Trump’s mouth will beat Trump.

It’s almost as if he is starting to realize that he is in over his head and is going to self-destruct.

he will win the nomination or run third party, and even if as a candidate he has a good chance of actually winning, he'll deliberately sabotage his campaign by saying something very stupid....he'll do this on purpose because his ultimate goal is to have his friend Hitlery win....

the Bushes are the absolute enemies of the Trumps and the Clintoons and the bammeys, then we have to ask "why"?....

the friend of my enemy is also my enemy...
