  • Melania — resolved “Yes” on 24 Sept 2026. The outcome is Yes if Donald Trump states Melania or a plural or possessive form of her name after September 21, 2026 at 9:00am ET and before September 28, 2026 at 12:00am ET. The outcome is No if this specific statement does not occur within that exact timeframe. Readers often mistake the date of the linked news story for the relevant deadline.
  • Melania — resolved “Yes” on 24 Sept 2026. The outcome is Yes if Donald Trump says Melania during his remarks at Xi Jinping’s state arrival ceremony on September 24, 2026. The outcome is No if he does not say her name in that specific context. Readers often mistake the linked news story for the resolution event, but only the speech at the ceremony counts.
