I have no idea what I just watched

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.

Donald Trump wants you to know that he knows how Kim Jong Un is doing, but he wants you to know that he’s not going to tell you how Kim Jong Un is doing. Trump thinks Nancy Pelosi is dancing in Chinatown or something. And Trump thinks the reporters in the audience hacked into his phone.

Trump’s propaganda network OAN asked an unintentionally hilarious question about the prospect of Donald Trump somehow rehiring convicted traitor Michael Flynn to work at the White House. Even Trump didn’t seem to know what to do with that one. When a serious reporter asked Trump about his Lysol meltdown, Trump have one of the shortest and most tepid answers he’s ever given, making clear how afraid he still is of the topic.

I don’t even know what I just watched. It was the same old garbage press briefing, just with a bunch of retail CEOs on stage for absolutely no reason, and with an even more deranged Donald Trump. He’s unraveling even more quickly than ever.
