If BF settle now and Trump ends up being the eventual winner would you deposit your winnings and stake to cover the negative hole BF would have? They'd be chasing potentially tens of thousands of people whilst looking at a 9 figure loss.

Anyone confused over that move?
My theory (for what it's worth) is, the market is full of people who don't fully understand the complexity of the US Electoral system (me included) & are placing their bets with a conformation bias they're getting from 2 min biased news segments (works both ways.) Hardly anyone can be arsed to watch anything longer than a Tik Tok video.
I'm not saying Biden won't win (pom pom insurance) but I've always thought there is a bias in the market, left msm is way bigger than right.

Its all a bit bizarre - the lawsuit effectively says you can't trust the automated system as some Johnny Foreigners have been involved in the design however the "hand recount" matches the automated count so looks like it will be thrown out for lack of evidence..
There is a bit more to it than that. Each state set their own voting law. Pennsylvania law says that a Democrat & Republican should be able to verify the vote, Trumps team are arguing that they were not able to verify at least 650,000 votes in Pennsylvania and once the inner envelope is separated from the outer they can no longer go back and verify it. I think this is the route they're taking, that's why they've distanced from Sydney, she's running with a theory that the votes can be changed once in the system and that illegal ballots were dropped off in the dead of night and put into the system.sionascaig wrote: ↑Thu Nov 26, 2020 9:29 amIts all a bit bizarre - the lawsuit effectively says you can't trust the automated system as some Johnny Foreigners have been involved in the design however the "hand recount" matches the automated count so looks like it will be thrown out for lack of evidence..
All seems crazy but we live in a Democracy and everyone is entitled to be heard and use the law if they feel wronged.
Whilst this is all going on its slowing down the certification of the states and "could" be a tactic in itself, trying to bypass the Electoral College and send the vote to the House of Representatives.
I suppose, nobody really knows anything for certain, if they did the market would be shut.

Probably not a coincidence that the explosion in SM alongside the shift in MSM priority (clicks over facts) has coincided with the run of unexpected election/referendum results. The public are far more right-wing than media would have us believe.jamesg46 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 26, 2020 9:21 amAnyone confused over that move?

Yes, I agree. The problem that "we the people" face imo is the tribalism that exists within the "free and fair press" & also big tech, clicks over facts is good business it seems, but imo it's the cause of the bitterness within the devide.jameegray1 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:34 amProbably not a coincidence that the explosion in SM alongside the shift in MSM priority (clicks over facts) has coincided with the run of unexpected election/referendum results.

Got to laugh a little "free & fair press" that is bought for the interests of feeding the narrative... rumours of Trump buying OAM and Bezos wanting to buy CNN suggests its anything but free and fair.
trump will win the court case
voter fraud is reality, the media wants Biden to win, but this guy cannot win any election.
fox news has become a globalist tool case,
I will speak for the teaparty we are onfident. Pennyslavania hearing were explosive, I cannot see how the supreme ourt can uphold these elections.
Trump won on tuesday and while america slept the democrats were busy rigging elections.
are giys buying the hype? the globalists hate trump, they thought they could contain and neutralise him.

Of course you can make the argument that sections of the media are biased but you can't blame the media for people being idiots. Most people are either too stupid or lazy to question what they're told or just want to listen to a point of view that matches their own. It's how everything works from politics and religion to what programs you watch on TV to what sports team you support. Its how people are wired and unfortunately it will only get worse, especially in the age of social media.
