Kalshi
This market tracks whether Donald Trump will say the phrase "Sleepy Joe" in his public statements before August 24, 2026. On Kalshi, the current probability that he will say it is 99.0%, with resolution based on Trump's public statements during the specified period. Watch for any statements Trump makes in the lead up to the August 24, 2026 deadline, as this is the final date for the market to resolve.
The event resolves to Yes if Donald Trump uses any of the specified phrases—whether singular, plural, or possessive forms—in public statements, direct quotes from source agencies, or on his personal social media accounts (Twitter/Truth Social) between August 17, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. ET and August 24, 2026, at 12:00 a.m. ET. Official acts such as executive orders or signed bills do not count. Each phrase must appear exactly as stated, though grammatical or tense variations are permissible. For phrases containing slashes (e.g., "Bibi/Netanyahu"), either term satisfies the condition. If a phrase requires a minimum number of mentions, all instances must occur after the market issuance. The resolution hinges solely on Trump’s public use of the listed terms within the specified window.
On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. On Kalshi, traders set prices through continuous bidding and asking, with the top outcome’s current chance implied by the inverse of its price. Market depth and liquidity influence how quickly prices adjust to news or polling updates. The platform’s pricing mechanism captures crowd-sourced expectations rather than a single forecast model.
This market resolves around Aug 24, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. Traders will watch Trump’s public appearances, press conferences, and official statements throughout the week to determine which contract matches his actual remarks.
