The betting favorite has only lost twice since 1866, according to the Conversation, a nonprofit news organization.
The two upsets came in 1948, when Harry Truman (D) beat eight-to-one odds to defeat Thomas Dewey ®, and in 2016, when Trump overcame seven-to-two odds to beat Hillary Clinton.

My coworker put in a bet on Trump right after he entered the election the first time. Can’t remember the odds but it was staggering and we joked about it constantly until it became true.
