3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Deport / Deported / Deportation — resolved “No” on 20 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Donald Trump uses the words "Deport," "Deported," or "Deportation" during his scheduled midterm rally in Wichita, Kansas on October 19, 2026. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake this for a prediction about actual policy implementation rather than a specific spoken phrase at a single event.
  • Event does not qualify — resolved “No” on 18 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if a qualifying event does not happen. It resolves to No if such an event occurs. Readers often mistake the linked news story for the resolution criteria rather than checking for the specific definition of a qualifying event.
  • Above 35 — resolved “Yes” on 26 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Donald Trump holds more than 35 rallies between January 1 and November 3, 2026. It resolves to No if he holds 35 or fewer rallies during that period. Readers often mistake the end date for the election day in November 2024 instead of November 3, 2026.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
