If odds are irreverent, then what's the point in having them, ever? And they're not just based on the money laid out.

Not just an endorsement either, she stated ‘another 9/11 will be around the corner if Biden wins’

I mean, that sounds like a threat of terrorism does it not?

To be fair, there are better ways to spend time than going on about "white privilege" and critical race theory.

I know that invites accusations of 'percieved' reasons, so to avoid that im going to ask for actual evidence. As seen in the footage of Biden and the evidence we have of Trumps past, what actual footage or direct quote is there to suggest there was a genuine reason not to vote for Corbyn?

Bookies want people to still think it's a 2 horse race and trump has an equal chance because that's how bookies make money. When people lose, they win.

Biden is definitely getting the most votes but it all comes down to which states he wins

the popular vote isn't actually relevant in the same way that it's irrelevant here. The election system is an agreed process

Biden needs to target some of the big States that are worth lots of points

A president serving an 8-year term without winning the popular vote on either election has never happened before in US political history, this will be a first (assuming he wins the electoral college and loses the popular vote again, which I sadly think is the most likely scenario).

IMO given that unlike the UK, the US is a two-party election... this heavily indicates a broken system.
