## Quick answer

The contract requires a qualifying direct public insult by Trump against the named individual within its September window. Private leaked remarks and secondhand paraphrases are excluded; criticism of a specific policy or decision alone is insufficient. [2](https://polymarket.com/event/who-will-trump-publicly-insult-by-september-30-2026/will-donald-trump-publicly-insult-marjorie-taylor-greene-by-september-30-2026)

## Key takeaways

- Locate the original public statement, its date and its target, then compare the actual words with the insult definition in the contract.
- Criticizing a policy is not automatically an insult to every person associated with it. A later statement cannot repair a missing qualifying remark inside the window.
- The qualifying window ended September 30, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern. Any remaining open status should be treated as settlement status, not a future-event forecast.
