Trump Beats Hillary

Post by woodchip »

And Miley Cyrus on SNL ratings:
With Donald Trump hosting, Saturday Night Live jumped to its biggest overnight rating since 2012.

According to NBC, SNL had a whopping 6.6 household rating on Saturday night, easily beating the season’s previous high: the 41st season premiere last month, hosted by Miley Cyrus and with a guest appearance by none other than … Hillary Clinton. In fact, Trump’s overnight rating was 47 percent higher than the Miley/Hillary episode.
Still think Trump won't be our next president?

I offered a wager, publicly, on here. No I do not. Care to take the bet?

Still too early in the year for bets. And with your new found wealth, make it 50/5000 and you're on.

not going to give an overlay. As it is, I'm offering a futures bet. The odds would be different if Trump actually won his party's primary process. I'm betting he doesn't.

It may be wiser to bet that he will be elected, as a way of hedging if you will.

you may have missed it, but I offered woody, a few weeks back, a bet where I'm putting up 10 to his 1(to charity,in both cases) that precise proposition, that Trump will not be elected President.

The original bet was predicated on Trump winning the GOP election first. Was way to early to bet on that.

hence, the 5-1 odds.

No I mean, bet that he will be elected. That way, even in the unfortunate event he's elected, at least you'll have made some money. You'll be even-steven.

I don't see the correlation between ratings on a TV show that hasn't been popular since the 80's and the presidency. Someone care to explain? I mean, SNL hasn't exactly had it's finger on the public pulse for a looooong time.pulse
