Donald Trump finally met with Korean dictator Kim Jong-un and that seemed to help his odds as they jumped from 2.68X to 2.47X, his highest since January 2017. He is very close to his peak odds of 2.41X which he reached the first week of January 2017.
Former President Barack Obama met with 10 potential 2020 candidates. The top candidates he met with:
- Bernie Sanders 2nd overall at 11.6X
- Joe Biden 4th place at 14.6X
- Elizabeth Warren 5th place at 14.6X
- Cory Booker 9th place at 30.0X
- Deval Patrick 22nd place at 54.7X
Although it is unlikely Obama endorses any of the candidates during the primary, they will likely try to connect themselves as much as possible to the popular ex President, and these meetings are just a part of that.
Interestingly one person missing from that list is Kamala Harris who is third overall at 11.7X.
One new name on the list is Bob Iger. Although there was no news related to the Disney CEO and 2020 elections, two websites added odds for him at 41X this week. That gave him enough odds to qualify for our standings. He makes his debut at 41.8X which puts him in 11th place just ahead of fellow CEO Jamie Dimon and just behind Michelle Obama.
