    That specific problem isn’t really “gambling” tough.

      no true gambling huh?

      1. the saps losing money to the insiders are genuinely gambling
      2. polymarket is a gambling institution.
      3. without polymarket, you can’t have this insider/sap exploitation dynamic

        The specific problem of people from the Trump admin betting on polymarket is not “gambling”.

            Thats true i suppose, but there’s a bunch of more appropriate descriptions, like abuse of office or corruption.
