lol, no. I would absolutely love to have another option, but it's not going to happen.
This is like that time that I won like $800 betting that Trump would lose the election after he lost the election.
"Thousands" of Americans betting on something happening isn't an indication of likelihood nearly as much as it's an example of wishful thinking and/or the Dunning-Kruger effect.
The article doesn't even say thousands of people. It says thousands of dollars.
Thousands? So like all the rich people who donate to alt-right interests? Of course they are, they want the world to be their slaves.
In general, you don't even run for president in the first place unless you have an absolutely massive ego, so of course he won't drop out.
Of course he won’t. He should, but he won’t.
It's not impossible, but will take a significant medical event for him to do that.
He needs to, but DNC hubris will keep him in
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Thousands of dollars have been placed on the possibility of President Joe Biden standing down as the Democratic candidate in 2024, as the incumbent's approval ratings remain low.
It comes amid low approval ratings, concerns about his age, criticism of his handling of a number of crises and remarks made by Biden himself.
Previously, Biden, 81, said he doubtfed he would run for a second term if Trump had decided not to enter the race to try to win back the White House in 2024.
Biden's polling numbers are struggling and a survey conducted by the American Research Group from December 17-20 indicated 57 percent of responders disapprove of his presidency.
Several polls also show Trump pulling ahead of Biden in a head-to-head, according to analysis website FiveThirtyEight.
An alternative in Vice President Kamala Harris may not be a preferred choice for voters, with her own approval rating averaging around 37 percent.
