The assassination attempt hasn’t moved prediction markets. Odds for Trump insulting Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and others hold at 100% across all active sub-markets. With six days left until resolution, traders appear fully convinced these insults will happen.
The lack of movement is worth noting because political violence has historically amplified Trump’s rhetorical responses. Even so, odds remain maxed out, which means traders had already priced in Trump’s likelihood of making inflammatory remarks before this event.
