I’m not being snarky just genuinely curious.

How one French gambler’s huge bet spiked Trump’s odds – and may threaten democracy
Funded by billionaire Trump supporter Peter Thiel, Polymarket is forecasting a landslide for the Republican candidate. But some fear the massively inflated odds will be used by the Republican candidate as evidence that the election was stolen, writes Anthony Cuthbertson

Also political betting ads seem to be targeted towards conservative men:
Polymarket spends over $50,000 on social media ads, boosted by conservative influencer
The advertisements from Polymarket have been controversial, with some of them not being clearly marked as reflecting odds that are based on bets.

Sites like wallstreetbets and other crypto/poker/gambling communities most likely to bet also lean towards Trump.
None of this to say he won't win or isn't the favorite, I just don't think the betting market accurately reflects true odds at all.
