The American voting system is a strange one, but I'm optimistic Trump will be out. We'll then witness the biggest sulk in the entire history of sulking!

* note to sid - I think you've got a £20 bet on the US election with seriouspie. The 15/8 on offer for Trump puts you in a position where you can't lose. Stick £20 on Trump and you break even if he loses. If he wins you would get £57.50 back. That would cover your £20 payment to serious, your £20 stake, and leave you with £17.50 profit.
Thanks for the excellent advice, Elite, but the £20 bet was on Trump lasting out for the full term and NOT about the outcome of the 2020 election. Unless some trigger-happy nutter lets loose on the orange one in the next 10 days it looks like I'll have to pay up - but it is going to a good cause.
