As the incumbent, Donald Trump is the clear favorite to win in 2020, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/politics-futures\">presidential betting odds<\/a> will change drastically once the Democrats decide on a candidate. There is plenty of value if you select the right nominee, but there could be value in betting on Trump too. Let\u2019s look at the current odds below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>ODDS TO WIN THE 2020 UNITED STATES PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p> <strong>DONALD TRUMP +125<br> JOE BIDEN +650<br> BERNIE SANDERS +800<br> PETE BUTTIGIEG +800<br> ELIZABETH WARREN +1000<br> ANDREW YANG +1600<br> MICHAEL BLOOMBERG +1600<br> HILLARY CLINTON +3300<br> AMY KLOBUCHAR +5000<br> MICHELLE OBAMA +5000<br> MIKE PENCE +5000<br> TULSI GABBARD +5000<br> KAMALA HARRIS +6600<br> CORY BOOKER +10000<br> DEVAL PATRICK +10000<br> TOM STEYER +15000<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although some\nDemocrats are trying their best, it\u2019s unlikely that Donald Trump is\nimpeached in the next 11 months. Teflon Don has withstood more\nscandals than any other politician in recent history, and his base\nremains incredibly strong. At this point, the Republican Party has\nbecome interwoven with Trump, making it highly unlikely his party\nmoves against him. The bigger concern regarding Trump standing for a\nsecond term is his health after he made a surprise visit to Walter\nReed Hospital two weeks ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump has stated\nthat there\u2019s nothing to worry about health-wise, but the POTUS has\nrepeatedly shown he can\u2019t be taken at his word. He will turn 74\nnext year, and he will become the oldest sitting POTUS in United\nStates history in early 2020. That has to make anyone <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/politics-futures\">betting\non Trump<\/a> to win the 2020 United States Presidential\nElection a little antsy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In head to head\npolls with Democratic Party challengers, Trump is routinely behind.\nHowever, that\u2019s nothing to be too concerned about at this point.\nThat\u2019s typical at this point in the election cycle, and the polling\ngap will almost certainly narrow as Election Day draws closer.\nAdditionally, the current POTUS has the benefit of an Electoral\nCollege tilted heavily in the GOP\u2019s favor, boosting his chances to\nbe reelected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no value\nin <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/politics-futures\">betting\non Joe Biden<\/a> to become the next POTUS. Biden continues\nto show that he is out of touch with younger voters, and he would\nprobably perform even worse than Hillary Clinton if he won the\nDemocratic Party nomination. His decision to travel around the\ncountry in a bus with \u2018No Malarkey\u2019 painted on the side has been\npanned by virtually everyone, leading to millennials dismissing him\nwith the \u2018Okay Boomer\u2019 phrase that has become increasingly\npopular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s hard to\nsee any way for Biden to beat Trump. Yes, the Democratic Party\nfavorite is currently ahead of the POTUS in most polls, but his\nconstant gaffes on the campaign trail are sticking with him in a way\nthey don\u2019t stick with Trump. Plus, he just doesn\u2019t resonate with\nyounger voters, and we\u2019ve seen that the Democratic Party candidate\nneeds to encourage its base in order to win presidential elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bernie Sanders\nhas some major health concerns too after suffering a heart attack a\nfew months ago, but Sanders at least has a chance to beat Trump.\nWhile he has been decried as too far left, Sanders resonates with\nyounger voters in a way that older candidates usually fail to\nconnect. Like Trump, he has a solid bloc of supporters that will\nfollow him to the ends of the Earth, but it\u2019s unlikely he wins the\nDemocratic Party nomination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best value on\nthe board lies in Pete Buttigieg and Elizabeth Warren. Buttigieg and\nWarren represents different factions within the party, but they can\nboth rally the base. Buttigieg is a relative newcomer with little\nexperience, but he appeals to centrists and can sway independents to\nhis cause. He is much more friendly to big businesses than some of\nhis rivals, and that has helped him raise tens of millions to become\na serious contender. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Warren remains my favorite play at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/politics-futures\">these current odds<\/a> though. She should fare well in the Iowa Caucuses and the New Hampshire Primary, brightening her star while many of the other contenders fall by the wayside. If she can pick up Sanders\u2019 base soon, she would immediately become the favorite to win the Democratic Party nomination, so there\u2019s plenty to be optimistic about with her campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The political betting season is heating up&#8211;to get all of the latest news and odds <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/betonline_ag\">follow BetOnline.ag on Twitter<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/betonline_ag\/\">BetOnline.ag on Instagram<\/a>&#8211;Follow for the latest odds, stats and information!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2020 United States Presidential Election Betting Odds The 2020 United States Presidential Election is 11 months away, but there is&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":7861,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7860","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7860","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7860"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7860\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7862,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7860\/revisions\/7862"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7861"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7860"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7860"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7860"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
