A tale of three idiots

| 6:00 pm EST February 13, 2023
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.

It is infrequent indeed when I get to write about not one, not two, but THREE things I cannot stand Two of them are people, and one is a television network. They are (in no particular order): Donald Trump. CNN. Bill Maher.

Sigh. Yes, I know. This is not to be a warm, happy story. It in fact will be a tale of three idiocies. And still, it must be told. As Palmer Report has reported, CNN made the absurd choice of bringing Bill Maher onto its platform in a desperate attempt to boost ratings.

And as you might suspect, the insurrectionist found out about it. His verdict? Thumbs down Finally, something the traitor and I agree on. Only Trump’s solution was not much better. What is that solution? Hire him instead. Sigh. Yes, Yes, I know. This story is really about three scoops of stupid.

Trump started his “job interview” with CNN by jeering at their miserable ratings. He then proceeded to call Maher wacky. Then Trump suggested there is only one way to save ailing CNN.

“There’s only one person that can save CNN — He’s done it for six years — TRUMP,” the lunatic wrote. Trump then nixed his job interview by saying he would be unavailable to CNN he anyway. “He’s not available; he’s going to WIN the presidency,” Trump wrote insanely.

A few things here. Trump won’t be available, but that’s because he will be indicted. Second, this referring to himself in the third person really has GOT to stop. It’s creepy and unwanted. Third, the way Chris Licht is going, it wouldn’t surprise me if he’d thought of this idea. However, not even Licht would really go that far, I do not think.

One last little tidbit. If CNN thought Maher would suddenly become the face of the network and ratings would soar, he’d be wrong. Maher is one once a week, late at night, and few seem remotely interested. And that is today’s tale of idiocy.
