Donald Trump tips off that he thinks today is the big one

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.

The first hints came last night, when Donald Trump went on a rare weekday evening Twitter rant which saw him doing everything from launching multiple attacks on the Washington Post and its ownership, to essentially accusing himself of being a spy. It painted a picture of a man who was desperate to distract from a major bombshell he thought was about to drop squarely on his head. Then this morning happened.

Donald Trump began tweeting just before 6am eastern time today, an early start even by his standards. With his first tweet he accused California of being engaged in a “revolution” against the United States, while yelling racist things about immigrants and inventing the term “breeding concept.” Then, in what might be the strangest thing that the world’s strangest man has ever done, Trump began attacking adult film actress Stormy Daniels by insisting that she had described her own ex-boyfriend to a police sketch artist.

This is all so far off the rails, in such rapid and seemingly intentional fashion, that it’s overwhelmingly clear he’s trying to create a distraction by any means possible. He’s never even been willing to publicly mention Daniels. Now he’s suddenly accusing her of utterly bizarre things. In fact Trump just tweeted again, this time admitting that Mike Pompeo secretly met with Kim Jong Un, even though Pompeo has not been confirmed as Secretary of State by the Senate.`

Donald Trump is balls-to-the-wall desperate for the media and the public to be talking about anything other than the story that he thinks is about to break today. So what is it? Did the Washington Post get ahold of the Pee Pee Tape? Is Sean Hannity the love child of Trump and a gorilla? We have no idea what it is that Trump thinks is about to hit the newswires, but he thinks it’s coming today, and he thinks it’s the big one.
