Trump out as President before 2027?

Platform comparison

Market context

Donald Trump remains in office, and the market is pricing only a **7%** chance that he is no longer president before the end of 2026. That is consistent with the basic structure of the contract: a “Yes” requires resignation, permanent removal, or another complete loss of the presidency, not a temporary transfer of power. The Constitution’s 22nd Amendment also means the issue is not a third-term question, but whether he exits early from his current term, which runs to January 2029.[12][13]

The historical frame is that presidents almost never leave office before their term ends. The modern benchmarks are resignation or forced exit, most notably Richard Nixon’s resignation in 1974 after it became clear he faced impeachment and conviction; outside that kind of crisis, early departures are rare. That is why prediction markets typically assign low single-digit to low-teens probabilities to these contracts unless there is a major legal, health, or political shock.[1][4][12]

The main catalysts to watch are concrete signs of resignation, incapacity, or an impeachment path that can clear both chambers of Congress. Recent commentary from James Carville has highlighted a possible post-midterm exit narrative, but that remains speculation rather than evidence of an active process.[2][3][6] Traders should also watch for any sudden health disclosure, cabinet or vice-presidential manoeuvring under the 25th Amendment, or a major shift in Republican support after the 2026 midterms, because those are the few developments that could move the line quickly.[3][7][12]
