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.

By any objective measure, Donald Trump is awful. Republican Senator Susan Collins, who has spent the past year and a half aligning herself with Trump in every way possible, is just as awful. The good news is that Trump and Collins are both up for reelection in November.

Susan Collins’ democratic opponent is a popular Maine politician named Sara Gideon. When Donald Trump went on a bizarre and delusional bender about the state, Gideon took it right to him:

Funny you should say that because I can’t tell you how many complaints I hear about your administration’s response. In fact, I’ve only heard one Mainer say she thought you "did a lot that was right in the beginning." https://t.co/4QvRFhFAuu https://t.co/BI2TB7YZzj
