This market resolves yes if Donald Trump appoints a Supreme Court Justice between his inauguration and January 1st, 2027. Only a justice who is confirmed by the Senate counts.

If Donald Trump is not re-elected, this market resolves N/A.

May differ from the same Biden conditional market due to different probabilities of also controlling the Senate and strategically timed retirements. See here for the market on if Biden wins:

@Quroe looks like the court just shot down Trump's anti-birthright-citizenship executive order. could lead to any number of things I suppose.

but Joshua making such a slipped bet is scary indeed

@bens Would you like to bet against this?

bought Ṁ100 NO

I'll put 100 down since 4,000 seems like too round of a number to be properly sized.

Ah! This seems to be what happened!
