Republican National Committee appears to be paying off would-be Donald Trump whistleblower

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’s dirty secrets seem to be on the verge of coming out left and right these days. For instance he’s desperately trying (and failing) to stop his niece Mary Trump from publishing her tell-all book. And this past week, his pal Jeffrey Epstein’s sidekick Ghislaine Maxwell was finally arrested. Now it turns out Trump’s Republican National Committee allies have been caught paying off a would-be Trump whistleblower.

The RNC has been paying large amounts of money to a former Apprentice producer who is sitting on Donald Trump’s dirty secrets and fabled Apprentice tapes, according to the Daily Beast. This isn’t surprising. During the 2016 election cycle, Trump paid off Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about their affair, and Trump has a long history of signing the people around him to nondisclosure agreements.

There has long been the sentiment that dirt on Trump won’t hurt him even if it does surface, because his base will never desert him “no matter what.” But over the past few months we’ve seen Trump’s poll numbers and approval rating drop significantly – a reminder that it is indeed possible for him to lose supporters. Now that he’s more vulnerable than ever, perhaps the ongoing release of his dirtiest secrets will put a further dent in his sinking approval rating.
