2020 United States Presidential Election Betting Overview
Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden was as high as -200 a month ago. President Trump has seen late Offshore betting money come his way. Trump’s boundless energy has enabled a relentless campaign. As a result, some gamblers are impressed with the large Trump rally crowds. Others wonder how Biden can win campaigning from his basement. Biden is running an unconventional campaign. And the wagering community is trying to assess its effectiveness. Specifically, Biden believes that Trump will just defeat himself. He calculates that hiding from the public enhances his chances.
The Biden Campaign
Joe Biden’s campaign is based on one simple theory. He’s not Donald Trump. Trump has one of the biggest and most loyal bases in politics. Counter to that that is one of the largest groups of raw hate that has been against him. To these people, Trump’s many successes only fuel their rage. They are blinded by their hatred of the president. His bluster and lack of political manners drive them insane. Suburban females are particularly turned off by Trump. These voters see the president as obnoxious. It follows that “the noise” of Trump is too much for them.
Biden knows all of this. So, his strategy is to let Trump hang himself. Biden is gambling that Trump will eventually “step in it.” And many times, Trump does. Biden does best with the 2020 presidential election odds when he does the least. It’s no accident that Biden is Hidin’. It’s all part of the playbook.
The Trump Campaign
On New Year’s Day, Donald Trump was a solid favorite for reelection. And then came the coronavirus. Trump has gotten mixed results on his handling of COVID-19. He was realistic enough to know America couldn’t shut down forever. Yet he was often seen as dismissive of the severity of the virus. Videos of Democrats telling Americans to go out on the town at the outbreak don’t register. Trump gets the blame.
Actually, Trump has a better unemployment number than when Barack Obama ran for reelection. The difference is the “news” media. “Journalists” loved Obama and were his personal mouthpieces. These same Democrat publicists have attacked Trump from day one. Of great concern to Trump is that millions of Americans don’t see the “news” for what it’s become. Which is a 24/7 infomercial against Trump.
The Final Week
To be exact its important to remember that the election will come down to who wins “battleground states.” Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and North Carolina could go either way. So too is the popular vote meaningless. Thus, voters in battleground states have a decision. Do they like the Trump economy or hate Trump’s personality? That’s what the 2020 election has come down too.
