Donald Trump crashes and burns

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.

“President” Donald J. Trump continues to say and do things that in the recent past not even the GOP leaders would tolerate. He asserted this morning that he would be revealing personal details about Colonel Vindman, and he also repeated his pleas to the media and others to out the whistleblower. Both acts are dangerous to our republic.

In his latest meltdown, the shifty bullshitter – who is going to soon be impeached and at some point indicted – has asserted that Representative Adam Schiff will doctor the transcripts of witnesses. Trump tweeted on Sunday:

If Shifty Adam Schiff, who is a corrupt politician who fraudulently made up what I said on the “call,” is allowed to release transcripts of the Never Trumpers & others that are & were interviewed, he will change the words that were said to suit the Dems purposes. Republicans should give their own transcripts of the interviews to contrast with Schiff’s manipulated propaganda. House Republicans must have nothing to do with Shifty’s rendition of those interviews. He is a proven liar, leaker & freak who is really the one who should be impeached!

First, the witnesses have the opportunity to review their transcripts and to correct any errors in their testimony. Second, the hearings are recorded even if behind closed doors. Third, Republicans are in the hearings and so they can quibble all they want. Finally, unlike the fraud in the White House, who rallies behind his phony Ukraine phone call “transcript,” nobody is altering the testimony of these impeachment witnesses. So, game over.
