How do you know if it was the largest?

Because they own a ruler. And they counted them all down.

I would take that.

Hmm... I think you are getting that expression wrong.

By definition, somebody is on the other side of that bet.

It is my fondest hope at this moment in time that he collects on that bet.

I wish it was legal for me to bet on elections. 😶

What makes it the largest bet was the amount he stands to win, not the amount he himself put up. Because even this guy knows Trump's odds are long.
