These options resolve YES if Donald Trump says the exact sequence of words during the first full campaign event that he holds to introduce his running mate to the press.

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

  • To define which event counts, I'll mirror the Official VP Introduction Prop Bets (see that description for a more comprehensive definition).

    • TL;DR: Live introduction to the press, here's his introduction of Pence in 2016 (transcript), if no qualifying event occurs all options N/A.

  • This market will likely close before the event begins (if it's announced enough in advance) to recoup liquidity.

  • 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".
