The bookies know something the cable anchors won't say

Prediction markets have built a real-time probability engine around the Trump presidency, and the implied odds are quietly more candid than anything on the evening news.

*Desk note: Monexus treats Polymarket contracts as one input among several, weighted against wire reporting and primary documents. Where the market and the wire diverge, we name both and explain the gap; where they converge, we say so. We do not treat a prediction market as a poll, and we do not treat it as a casino. It is a continuous tape on probability, and the press's slow uptake is itself the story.
