    confused your article screams yes -150 but your bet to the bank +120 suggests no?

    Donald Trump Speech: Bernie SandersUses complete phrase -150
    Does not use complete phrase +120

    • Trump needs Sanders’ supporters and understands the contempt many of them have for his former rival, Hillary Clinton. They will not necessarily follow their champion into the Clinton camp because many of them feel betrayed by Bernie’s sudden defection to mainstream politics and business as usual. Trump will try to appeal to Sanders’ disenfranchised base and will look to position himself as an outsider, just like dear old Bernie. Take the +120 betting odds to the bank.

    ......You are completely on point Try. That was my bad and will get it edited. Was looking at a different line when I wrote that. Good catch and thanks for reading.

    i would give my left nut (which, if you can't tell from a couple of thousand of my posts, is pretty dear to me) if he'd use his bit of his own previous line, and scream out in his usual form "AND YOU CAN TELL HILIARY SHE CAN GO FUK HERSELF!!!!!!"

    Looks like we hit all but one (All Lives Matter)...According to my word doc Trump's speech went not so surprisingly went waaaay over (5294 words)

    Donald Trump Speech: All Lives MatterUses complete phrase +190
    Does not use complete phrase -240

    • Personally, I like the live dog here. It’s a quick, surefire way to get a thunderous applause and Trump likes nothing more than watching the masses genuflect at his altar. Grab the +190 here as a strong betting pick.


    Donald Trump Speech: Bernie Sanders
    Uses complete phrase -150
    Does not use complete phrase +120

    • Trump needs Sanders’ supporters and understands the contempt many of them have for his former rival, Hillary Clinton. They will not necessarily follow their champion into the Clinton camp because many of them feel betrayed by Bernie’s sudden defection to mainstream politics and business as usual. Trump will try to appeal to Sanders’ disenfranchised base and will look to position himself as an outsider, just like dear old Bernie. Take the -150 betting odds to the bank.


    Donald Trump Speech: Color of Tie
    Red -400
    Blue +350
    Field (any other color) +1000

    • Seriously folks, does he own any other color? It’s a power color and if he ever wanted to show the world his enormous hands…check that…his colossal clout, then this is the perfect stage to do so. Lay the lumber and like it at -400.


    Donald Trump Speech: Crooked Hillary
    Over 4½ uses of phrase +150
    Under 4½ uses of phrase -180

    • Trump will undeniably use the term “Crooked Hillary” but let’s not forget this night is all about his favorite person, Donald Trump, not his arch enemy. He will not overdo it, not because he’s not prone to overdoing just about everything, but because he will get a chance to talk to a national audience about the wonders of - who else? Donald Trump. Lay the -180.


    Donald Trump Speech: Total Words
    Over 4249½ total words -115
    Under 4249½ total words -115

    • I’m not sure the oddsmakers could deal a number in which I wouldn’t go over the posted total. I have recently learned that for every minute of a speech there are 100-200 words. Donald doesn’t talk particularly fast but he does go long. If Trump stays on the podium for 20 minutes we have a better than decent shot at this prop going over the posted total. I say they’ll have to start playing the music – ala Oscar winners going too long – before he’ll drop the mic. Let’s go over -115 at BetOnline.
