The War Room Bet Thread V3

[SBJJ]

It's funny because I really think that GDP is inherently unpredictable, but this will be the second bet I've made on it (the other one predates this thread, when Greoric predicted growth would be negative in 2015). Just reflects how cults in Greoric's case or partisanship in SBJJ's melts people's brains.

Too bad the Trumpsters were attacking me in that thread. Lol! Yea, I’m a huge partisan who gets attacked by both sides.

Keep talking. I predict after 3rd qtr we will already know you lost this bet

Other than partisanship, what are you basing your projection on?

I think your bet with mcveteran was the best. My father constantly said Obama wasn't going to leave office no matter how close it came to the end of his term. I still make fun of him for it.

1. The exact statement the bet is premised upon
2. Stance each poster is taking in regards to the statement
3. The date the bet will be decided
4. The reward/punishment for the winner/loser
5. The duration of the reward/punishment before I will post it.
6 (OPTIONAL) A situation which makes the bet void that isn't clear with the content in 1 & 2. This needs to be very clear if included.
Once, you both are in agreement, tag me so I can add it.

mcveteran made that bet?

That's disappointing. He always seemed pretty reasonable and self-aware compared to the rest of the center-right.

Yea, you can find it in the OP. Something about Obama refusing to leave and that he'd call for a state of emergency or something.

Let's have a bet on this:

Robert Mueller's investigation will not conclude that Trump attempted to offer US policy concessions to Russia in exchange for access to the hacked DNC e-mails.

I think people still do them unofficially. This is just a thread to make it public and decided outside of the bet particpants.

By in, are you saying you accept the bet?
