- As it looks more certain Trump will run, so his odds of returning to the White House have crashed
- Joe Biden is only 4/1 2nd favourite to win a second term.
- Ron de Santis is the big mover in the markets, shortening up to 8/1 now.
- Still a long way to go, the next elections is scheduled for Nov 5, 2024
As 2022 dawns as we are a month or two closer to the next US presidential election, albeit, still nearly 3 years away with a date set for November 5th 2024, it is with interest we note that support for Donald Trump at online betting sites remains strong and he is still out in front as the clear favourite to move back into the Oval Office in the White house
The 2024 US Presedential odds had been bouncing around throughout 2021, but have settled down with Donald Trump sitting atop the list for a few months and into 2022 remains as the 3/1 favourite having been as big as 25/1 this time last year. Since thenthe price on him becoming POTUS once again kept getting shorter and shorter every week on betting sites.
The graph of how each candidate's betting has changed this year is fascinating, with all three of Trump, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris being the favourite in the betting at one point or another.
Next President of the US Betting
| Next President | Odds | Probability |

| Joe Biden | 5/1 | 16.67% |
| Kamala Harris | 8/1 | 11.11% |

Trump in The News
In the meantime, to while away the months between now and then, bookmakers are offering a whole host of betting specials around former US President Donald Trump.
The most intriguing one is that he is 20/1 to present The Apprentice again, having not presented the show since 2015. Apprentice betting is currently underway on the UK version which started in the first week of January.
Arguably the most important part of his career, presenting The Apprentice allowed Trump's businesses to fly high again and got him in the public eye even more.
| Donald Trump Specials | Odds | Implied Probability |
|---|---|---|
| To Start Own TV Channel | 1/2 | 66.7% |
| To Return To Host The Apprentice | 20/1 | 4.8% |
| To Become US Ambassador To United Kingdom | 100/1 | 1% |
| To Qualify For A PGA Tour Golf Event | 500/1 | 0.2% |
| Trump Tower To Be Renamed Biden Tower | 500/1 | 0.2% |
The return of Trump to the Apprentice as you can see above is the second most likely outcome in the betting market for his specials.
Of course, with an implied probability of just 4.8%, it's unlikely that Trump will go back to presenting on television again in a reality show like that.
The favourite in the market to start his own TV Channel could tie in with an Apprentice return though if Trump was to get the rights.
