Bottom of the barrel

Dear Palmer Report readers,

We all understand what a dark era we're heading into. Journalists will be prosecuted. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. Advertising networks can't be counted on. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight, because someone has to.

In that regard we're looking to start funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens or how dark things get. We've launched a reader supported fund, and we've already raised $2097 and counting. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can contribute here. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Bill Palmer

Through the years, we’ve heard Donald John Trump say one absurd thing after another. Round and round, he has gone, a human dumpster, garbage tumbling from his orange mouth, dirtying up the world with his filth.

However, what Donald Trump just said about his New York Fraud Trial has GOT to land in the encyclopedia of the stupidest, most pathetic things Donald has ever said. As you’re aware, the orange one chose not to testify in his trial this week. Michael Cohen said the reason Trump did not testify was because he was scared. I agree.

But it appears Trump is ruminating on the trial and his testimony — or lack thereof. I say this because Trump took to Truth Social to offer a new reason why he did not testify – and it’s a doozy.

Trump is claiming he COULDN’T testify because a gag order is in place preventing him from doing so. Let us take a moment to silently thank President Biden for beating this orange mish-mash in 2020. Let us all briefly marvel at the fact that someone exists among us who really IS this stupid.

As you know, the gag order only prevents Trump from threatening people. So is the cockroach saying he cannot testify — unless he’s allowed to threaten others? It sure sounds like it to me.

Trump, however, insists this absurd and pathetic reasoning (reasoning no sane person would ever make) is the real reason. Here is a little bit from the man we call traitor.

“The Judge, Arthur Engoron, put a GAG ORDER on me, even when I testify, totally taking away my constitutional right to defend myself.”

Yes, he put a gag order on you, you little orange horror, because you’re an imbecile and cannot stop threatening people.

“How would YOU like to be a witness and not be allowed free and honest speech?”

If Trump is saying he can’t speak without threatening people, then I’d say he is out of his mind. Of course, we do not know WHAT Trump means because his reasoning is non-existent and makes no sense to anyone but him.

“THE TRIAL IS RIGGED. I DID NOTHING WRONG.”

Then testify, you coward! I must admit Donald Trump has tremendous talent in one area. It’s true! When one thinks he’s reached the bottom of the barrel in his word salads, he manages to pull an even more pathetic word salad out. Trump has the unique privilege of being a fool, and he is on a mission to show the world he can always look MORE foolish than the time before.
