4-bullet brief | narrative

Polymarket puts 4% on Trump ceasing to be president before 2027, resolving via UMA oracle.
Declining approval and Democratic mobilization are political headwinds but carry no direct bearing on the removal or resignation scenarios this contract prices.
The 4% pricing is unchanged in signal from the Iran war context (Story 16 same contract), confirming the market treats geopolitical and political risk symmetrically at this low level.
Resolution via UMA oracle requires a confirmed departure from the presidency; electoral or approval shifts alone do not trigger settlement.
