On Tuesday, February 5, President Donald Trump will address the nation with the 2019 State of the Union. The State of the Union address was initially set to take place last month, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi postponed the address due to the partial government shutdown. Now, the address will go on as planned in front of a joint session of Congress.
The State of the Union will air on all major broadcast and cable networks, so even if you are not a fan of politics it will be difficult to avoid Trump’s speech.
Luckily for you, there are some ways to have some fun.
Ahead of the State of the Union address, the oddsmakers in Las Vegas decided to share odds and quirky prop bets for the event.
Gambling addicts can wager on anything from the color of the dresses of Ivanka Trump and Melania Trump to the color of Donald Trump’s tie and which country other than the United States the president will mention first.
It’s going to be a wild ride.
