Can someone explain gambling to me? It looks like:
This is the time to make money. If you bet $900 on Hillery, you get back your 900 and make $200 if she wins.
But look at this deal. If you bet $900 on Trump, you get back your $900 and make $2,700. It's practically a lock. How can you pass that up? Is it rigged?

Perhaps you can compare it with what happened in Great Britain with the Brexit vote. The odds looked much the same but Brexit was rejected leaving some with their pants down. So go ahead and make your bet on Hillary. My bet is that you won't bet. Now why do I say that?
