Donald Trump is having a no good, very bad, horrible day

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

This morning Palmer Report sounded the alarm about how Donald Trump is getting something of a free pass right now, because the Resistance is too busy trying to save the Democratic Party from the fires that Bernie Sanders keeps recklessly setting. As it turns out, Trump ended up having a very bad day today after all.

It’s bad enough for Donald Trump that that the stock market tanked today, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling off by more than a thousand points. Many observers are citing the worsening fear of a coronavirus epidemic in the United States as the primary reason for the selloff. Apparently Trump didn’t get the memo, as he ended up inexplicably tweeting this, just a few minutes after the market closed.

The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries. CDC & World Health have been working hard and very smart. Stock Market starting to look very good to me!

Wait, the stock market is starting to look good to him? We know he’s overseas right now. Did he miss the part where it plummeted by a thousand points today? Is he lying about what happened to the stock market today, in the hope his braindead base won’t notice? Or did his handlers schedule this tweet in advance, on the mere hope the stock market would go up today? In any case, one of Trump’s few bragging points is that he hasn’t yet completely ruined the Obama economy. Now the stock market is tanking. This is terrible news for him.
