Resolves YES if Biden issues a self-pardon, even if later overridden by courts or otherwise revoked. Otherwise resolves NO when Biden ceases to be president.

Since I don't see any plausible way the resolution could be ambiguous, I'll be betting in this market freely.

How does this resolve if Kamala temporarily assumes the powers of the Presidency (as she did during Biden's last colonoscopy) and pardons Biden during that time?

@JeffBerman I see zero ambiguity here, that definitely is not Biden pardoning himself

@jack So if his administration concocts a plan to pardon Biden, that doesn’t count. OK. Thank you for clarifying.

Also (since I don't follow the news) is Biden likely to be accused of a crime?

@Boklam There's been various news recently related to his handling of classified documents during the time in between being VP and being P. It's extremely politically salient; I have no opinion on its actual legal relevance.

Do you want to extend the close time?

@Boklam Whoops; done. If JB is re-elected it'll be extended again to 2028.

predictedNO

@ScottLawrence Shouldn't it be 2025, updated to 2029 if he gets re-elected?

predictedYES

@NcyRocks Yeah, y'know what, I really should be going to sleep :)
