This is a very strangely-worded contract but is basically a pure play on the thing:

13% betting markets on Trump being dead by years end is wild!

I was looking for this scenario but didn’t see this one…

Looking at history, the odds are surprisingly decent on this bet. 2 VP resignations, 7 VPs passed away, and 9 VPs ascended to the presidency.

6 month default actuarial is ~8% so it’s a hefty premium

Yeah, 13% isn't based on a bunch of VPs in the 1800s passing away from illness.

Guessing the first hump is Epstein related?

Wonder how that 13% compares to an actuarial table

I find prediction markets have a 15-25% "sucker bet" penalty so this tracks

Interesting that you can't wager on a person's death, but here's a bankshot.

I think this wording actually gives a ton of free optionality as well! Trump gets rid of him, something ut oh’s JD or the thing it actually means. Can’t be a part of this type of bet despite a wry smile at what it implies….but the gambler in me loves the edge!
