I know this sounds like a little bit too apocalyptic, but I think we die a little bit inside when everything just becomes about dollars and cents.
So yes, I think it's time for us to regulate these markets.
I think that there are some markets we just shouldn't offer, like whether there's going to be a famine in the Middle East or not, or what somebody is going to say on a talk show.
And on the sports side...
I just think that states should be able to put basic regulations around these markets.
And they can't do that for the prediction markets.
They can do that for, you know, DraftKings and other sort of mainstream betting sites, but they can't do that for CalShee and PolyMarket.
And I think that we should have basic regulatory structures around betting markets.
Allow people to do it, but make sure that there are some protections.
So the Trump family...
are paid advisors to Polymarket and Kalshi.
So those prediction markets, and they're obviously the biggest ones, are embedded inside the Trump family, and the Trumps are planning to open up their own prediction markets.
So this is, I think, not hard to understand.
The word is just out.
We're not enforcing any consumer protection laws against the prediction markets.
We want them to be able to get...
as big as possible.
So the only sort of prospect here is for states to step in and regulate these prediction markets.
But the Trump administration is trying to stop states from doing that.
That will likely be litigated in the courts or for us ultimately to pass legislation through Congress.
