1 year of posting rights...
If Trump is pushed out of office, resigns, etc. DUE to The Epstein File, I leave the board for a year. If not, adios to Tempo for a year.

Come on Double G, this is bullshit. If he resigns and there is some blah blah health blah blah reason - was it the Epstein files, or not?
The "loser" will just argue forever that it was or was not the reason for the resignation. Like, if the Dems sweep the midterms and an impeachment is headed his way but not for the Epstein files specifically, and he decides to leave office declaring "mission accomplished, time to pass the torch to my good friend JD Vance", do we then argue that the Dems swept the midterms because of the Epstein files so yeah, adios Double G?
If you're gonna make a bet, make it simple - "Will Donald Trump be President on Jan 1, 2027"

Not sure that was the bet. The bet was “this is bigger than watergate.” I think we need to agree on what constitutes “bigger than watergate,” but honestly I think you have probably dialed in on the deciding factor. I would like to at least discuss some possible ground rules. At the end of the day, Trump leaving office/going to jail will be the bet.
-
Murph makes a fair point. Trump could cite “health issues.” But if it gets to that point, it’s hard to see them not persuing a more satisfying outcome. This goes way beyond just Trump, I don’t see him stepping down being the end of it if it gets to that point.

This decides who rules the board in perpetuity. I have to be considered the favorite for winning the Mack Debate. Although the Fields Debate is a black mark on my record; but Fields was failed by others as much as by himself.

That might be too soon. Nixon stayed in office more than 2 years after the break in. Although they have more of a jump start on the Epstein/Trump Files.
-
I think way more witnesses to subpoena though.
-
I think if any trials due to the Epstein/Trump files go The Hague, it’s automatically “bigger than Watergate.”

I’ll be gracious and call it:
PAMan 1
Tempo/Reacher/Pritzker’s Toilets/too many to list 1
We’ll call it one win each on the biggest topics the board has ever known.
-
If I win, you may apply for clemency, PAMan. Can’t promise you’ll get it, but you can submit an application.

Tempo already Tempoing on the bet.

Nope. “Bigger than Watergate.” But I have conceded that would likely have to end with Trump being removed.

I guess depending how you read it, you can say it is a Trump bet. But I think there should be some ground rules (at least discussed). The Founders had the good sense to add the Bill of Rights to the Constitution.

You claim this is bigger than Watergate. I say Trump isn't getting tossed from office ala Watergate. Offered to put $ on it. You offered posting privileges. I said "Fine."
If he gets tossed from office due to The Epstein File, you win. He doesn't, I win.
-
But I know I’ve said “Bigger than Watergate” to you multiple times.

But I know I’ve said “Bigger than Watergate” to you multiple times.
And I've said it isn't, multiple times. And I laid down the gauntlet, which you accepted
-
It will be bigger than Watergate if we don’t allow it to get swept under the rug. But people cared more in the early 70s; nowadays, all most people care about is adding dog noses and dog ears to their pictures on FaceTok.
-
I should get credit for the win if it goes to The Hague. But if it gets that far, Trump is probably gone, regardless.

I agree. It will be bigger than Watergate.
In the UK...

Yeah, it will bring down the monarchy like Watergate brought down a US President.
You people are detached from reality and engage in a lot of wishful thinking.

What is this, a joke? What are the EU bureaucrats at The Hague going to do? These are not some 2 bit Eastern Euro or African nations like they usually steamroll.

No, it is not bigger than Watergate. Nixon lost the Republicans. That is when he resigned.
Trump is not going to "lose" these Republicans.
-
No, it is not bigger than Watergate.
That is yet to be determined.

(Queue “The Dude’s” voice) You’re stuck in the 70s, man.

Just like having the VP to a 2nd term 80 year old POTUS in seemingly declining health in your back pocket is worthless!
-
Apparently it’s in the files that Trump offered Epstein a role in the administration. LOL have not confirmed, but it’s from a source I find pretty trustworthy
