Donald Trump has lost close to 10 points on the Polymarket betting site in less than 24 hours.

Harris’ betting market-implied odds of victory stood at 42.4% Friday afternoon, hitting the highest level since last Thursday, with Trump inversely at an eight-day low of 57.2%, according to the site Election Betting Odds, which tracks odds movements across five platforms which allow users to wager on the election outcome.
“Crashing”. LOL!
The left is trying to freak us out period!! They know they are losing!!
Harris trying to scare off GOP doomworshipers from Election Day voting. Has $ to burn and nothing else she’s tried with it works.
Maybe someone throwing in millions of dollars into the market could have an effect. Once they do that, it becomes totally useless.

Those of you who are familiar with me know I am far from a concern troll but this is really starting to get under my skin. The news has been reasonably favorable over the last 36 hours for Trump yet he is crashing and burning on the betting sites. WTF gives?

My suggestion is to quit watching the main stream news.
My question is what the heck is polymarket and why should I care? Gambling is obnoxious and counts on an individuals hopes and dreams, it’s a ridiculous past time with nothing meaningful to offer.
The libs can keep their psyops

If you’ve got icewater in your veins, more power to ya pal. Some of us aren’t as cool as you.
Democrats are pushing money into the betting markets to scare people. A legitimate, free election will see Trump win in a landslide.
Betting? Really?
I dont think anyone really knows how this turns out. Let the gamblers flail away. We will know the outcome eventually … or we wont.
Gamblers are fickle...so are investors.
People are buying Kamala for the betting odds. so they level out so the bookies can’t go bankrupt.
Polls are for dancing.
Rich explained it well and cited some of the ridiculous pre election weekend polls issued by Marist in 2016 and 2020; you can find his analysis by Googling Rich Baris Twitter and then clicking on the Rumble citation for his full discourse on the topic. This is a coordinated effort by the Harris campaign in cooperation with the media which will parrot, without question, every allegation they make. Trying to doom the opposition, they make up nonsense about being ahead while the Ds are dramatically down in early voting in swing states like Arizona, Georgia and Nevada. A lot of this concern was stoked by a well-meaning tweet by Charlie Kirk yesterday on teh preponderance of women in the Pennsylvania early vote and mail in voting; he has straightened this out today with statistics indicating that the early vote in PA is actually MORE skewed toward men, by 2 percent, than it was in 2020. The gap with Republican early and mail-in vote is also down from 1.1 million to less than 400,000. Just Google “Charlie Kirk Twitter” and you can find his full analysis there.
“Rich Baris made me feel better today when he said these are intimidation tactics by the left to try and discourage us from voting.”
How is this supposed to work exactly?
Why would anyone get discouraged enough not to vote if the race was alleged to be close?
This went right over my head.
(I think the pollsters are lying for a bunch of reasons—but this reason makes no sense to me.)
The people who are desperate beyond historical measures to keep him out of the White House over the pat 8 yrs with all resources and personnel exhausted but in use could not possible be able to control this stupid betting sites run by people who cater to and take advantage of people with gambling addictions
No way.
I agree the Dems and the pollsters are lying.
My view is that they are trying to get their discouraged non-voting base to go out and vote.
Enjoy the next eight years under Kamala. This country has lost its way, and I’m tired of caring about it.
Yeah, I don’t know how polymarkets work, but in sports the odds are based on how people bet. Of course, there are “experts” who handicap games and weigh in on what they consider a “good bet”.
But even if you think the polymarket bettors are smart, they are picking Trump to win.
