He was just confirmed today. Resolving YES.

How does this resolve if Trump successfully uses the recess appointments power to avoid Senate confirmation?

@nonnihil The Senate confirmation is a key part of this question, so a recess appointment wouldn't count.

opened a Ṁ500 NO at 96% order

I think there's at least a decent chance that RFK doesn't get confirmed by the Senate. If you disagree, fill my limit order!

Selling my YES shares - Trump may decide to nominate RFK and avoid a Senate confirmation.

@traders Sorry, I just realized I never put a clear end date for this.

If Trump does win, it may take a few months before everyone in his cabinet is confirmed. So I think a reasonable choice for the close date is July 1, 2024. Any objections?

@TimothyJohnson5c16 Maybe make it an even 6 months, so July 20.

bought Ṁ46 YES

@TimothyJohnson5c16 even 6 months sounds good
