It's fitting that everyone, anywhere can just bet on anything now. It is all a way to find money in the nooks and crannies of our ignorance of what surrounds us.

We all know the odds on Trump being a pedophile and how low the odds are that anyone cares. People are profiting on this fact by betting.

We all know the odds are that Girl Scout cookie sales wane because of tariff pressures. and that nobody cares. People are profiting on this fact by betting.

Place your bet.
