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.

Tonight the Supreme Court officially ended Donald Trump’s quest to extend his presidency by illegally stealing another term. Trump can’t possibly have expected the court to have bailed him out, after he lost by margins this big, and after he was reduced to banking on a lawsuit this unintentionally hilarious. But still, he appears to be taking the news hard.

After the Supreme Court ruling came down, Trump made the last minute decision to bail on the White House Christmas Party. You’d think that if Trump had any new line of BS to deliver about how he was going to magically overturn the election – even if he didn’t believe it himself – he’d have gone and delivered it to his cronies at the party.

Instead, Trump is refusing to appear at the party at all. This means he’s either too embarrassed to show his face – even among friends at his own party – or this decision has broken him and he’s simply given up. We’ll see, but it looks like he’s simply devastated.
