This is just sad for Donald Trump

When dealing with grifters, it’s important to understand that the grift is not one aspect of their life — it’s the whole kit and kaboodle. For professional grifters, they never stop. The con exists 24 hours a day for them, from sunrise to sunset, always they grift.

Grifters live by a different code than you and I. Their lives are spent lying, casting eyes around for fresh new marks and grifting. So it should come as no surprise that the big announcement the king of grifters — Donald John Trump teased — turned out to be nothing but a grift.

Trump had hyped a “big announcement” that had many talking. All over, the speculations were wild. Some of these speculations were bizarre, others plain funny. But as it turned out, Trump’s big announcement was — trading cards?

Yep. In yet another grift, Trump announced $99 tokens that consumers could buy that reportedly also offer “sweepstakes.” The prize? Dinner with assolini. Golf with assolini. Zoom calls with assolini. That’s one grift that would make me turn in the opposite direction.

“Would make a great Christmas gift,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Don’t wait,” he went on. “They will be gone, I believe, very quickly.” Trump’s latest grift, of course, was about him. Because in the grifter’s world, he sees only himself.

Now these cards that our grifter is selling feature Trump as a superhero with laser eyes. Personally, I would possibly buy one of these cards — if it featured a likeness of Trump behind bars in an orange jumpsuit.

Alas, no such luck. And Trump’s big announcement is being met with scorn and derision by many. At this point, most people can see clearly what Trump is –a grifter and one of the lowliest quality. Sadly there WILL be some marks that will eagerly snatch up these cards.

It does still amaze me that after all these years, even one person could look at this man and think he cares about them. But then again, there are always marks out there, people who eagerly buy what the grifter is selling. That’s the way the grift rolls.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever.
