In his announcement that he would not seek to be the democratic nominee, Biden said: 

“I will speak to the Nation later this week in more detail about my decision.”  

These options resolve YES if Joe Biden says the exact sequence of words during the event referred to in this letter.

• Hopefully determining which event this refers to will be straightforward. I expect that it will be Biden's first speech or event with the press this week, but it's possible I'll need to make a judgment call.

  • I'll try to keep this market regularly updated as it becomes clear what event this will refer to.

  • In the case of ambiguity, I'll defer to mods for advice.

  • If he gives no such speech, all options will N/A.

  • If the speech is announced in advance, I may close the market before it begins.

• This will follow the same rules as the Trump-isms Debate Megamarket—see the original market for more detailed resolution examples.

• You can add your own responses, but note (1) I intend to be strict with resolution (following the rules below), & (2) I reserve the right to edit all entries to better match the spirit of the market.

Resolution examples:

• Needs to be exact same words (in order): "laughing at all of us" does not count for "laughing at us".

• Needs to match tense & pluralization: "winnings" or "winner" do not count for "winning".

• However, any punctuation is fine ("Billions! And billions..." counts for "billions and billions"), and contractions can count as the expanded words ("what's" is equivalent to "what is").

• Different ways of transcribing the same word count: "January 6th" = "January sixth".
