"This super-fan is clearly confident"

An Cork punter has placed a record bet on President Donald Trump to regain his role in the White House only hours before Democratic lawmakers are expected to approve two impeachment charges against him.

Paddy Power announced how a customer in Cork placed a bet at odds of 10/11.

Meaning if Trump is re-elected they will pocket €47,727.27, making it the single biggest bet they have taken so far on the 2020 US Presidential Election.

A spokesperson for PaddyPower said:

“This super-fan is clearly confident all will remain peachy for President Trump,”

"It’s the single biggest bet we have seen on market to date, giving me one more reason to cry like a giant angry baby if he’s re-elected"

Joe Biden is Trumps biggest rival in the 2020 US Presidential Election at odds of (6/1).

If he ultimately swerves impeachment as expected, bookie Paddy Power will face a six-figure sum payout but they revealed that they stand to lose far more if things play out in the reverse.

They continued “If Donald Trump becomes the third US President to be impeached, the sound you’ll hear is the cacophony of champagne corks being fired into the Dublin sky over Power Tower - despite the financial loss”
