Ahead of this Friday’s US Presidential Inauguration, bookmaker Paddy Power has loaded up an array of Donald Trump betting specials.
Seeking to recover some of its six figure losses on Trump’s surprise 2016 US Election victory, Paddy Power opens it ‘supersized’ Inauguration Day markets offering 11/1 for Trump’s first Presidential speech to last 22:30 minutes or longer.
Further markets, see the Irish bookmaker price 5/4 on Trump mentioning his catchphrase ‘Make America Great Again’. Paddy Power marketing details value in Trump mentioning ‘Fake News’ at 10/1 and even prices Trump berating ‘Crooked Hillary’ at 50/1.
Paddy Power is also paying attention to which celebrities will brave turning up to the Trump Inauguration. Rapper Kanye West tops the bookmakers market at 3/1, with wrestling icon Hulk Hogan offered at the same price.
Not shying away from fashion gossip, Paddy Power has priced 12/5 on Melania Trump wearing a white dress ‘to match her new home’.
Opening its supersized Inauguration Day specials, Paddy Power spokesman Patrick ‘Paddy’ Power commented; “Trump has had so many celebs turn down his invite to the big party I genuinely thought I might get the call-up. Alas, it hasn’t happened so I’ll be tuning in from home and I’m hoping for some serious entertainment.”
“Controversy is never far away when it comes to The Donald and it will be fascinating to see if he can keep tight-lipped during his hotly anticipated inauguration speech.”
