Donald Trump goes off the deep end after learning he’s likely being criminally indicted in Georgia

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.

When a Fulton County special grand jury member strongly hinted to the media on Tuesday that Donald Trump has been recommended for criminal indictment, it set off an endless series of sideshows. But the real story here is that Trump is being indicted in Georgia. And in his own unhinged way, it looks like Trump got the message.

In the hours after the news broke from Fulton County, Trump used his failing social network to declare that District Attorney Fani Willis is a “racist” and that her probe is… secretly being run by the DOJ? He then appeared to side with Kim Jong Un against the United States, and declared that we’re on the verge of World War III.

So now we know where Donald Trump’s head is as he heads into criminal indictment. His insults are getting lazier, his conspiracy theories are getting stupider, he’s not even trying to hide his real loyalties, and he’s relying on any random hyperbole he can come up with.

If Donald Trump had anything even remotely approaching a viable defense strategy for his Fulton County criminal indictment, we’d be hearing it by now. But he knows he has no defense strategy, and he expects to lose at trial. The same goes for the Manhattan criminal case and the DOJ criminal case. Trump is heading for three criminal trials, but instead of trying to lay the groundwork to get acquitted at those trials, he’s just raging like someone who expects to lose.
