Traders Now Price JD Vance Pardon at 51¢
The market implies Trump will pardon his VP, soaring from 8¢ as resignation speculation intensifies.
Following Democratic strategist James Carville's theory that Trump may resign after the midterms and seek a pardon from JD Vance, traders are aggressively pricing in this scenario. The market has surged to 51¢, up a massive 43¢, as speculation builds around Trump's ability to finish his term. Carville suggested Trump 'just gets JD Vance to pardon him' and 'just walks away.' The volume surge of 250.95 signals strong conviction in this unprecedented constitutional scenario. Meanwhile, the related market on Vance's 2028 Republican run has jumped to 45¢, up 15¢, suggesting traders see a clear succession path if Trump exits early.
