Now that Donald Trump has been criminally indicted on a combined total of seventy-two felony counts and is awaiting multiple criminal trials, you’d think he might wise up and try to focus on the kind of defense strategy that might actually give himself a chance at trial. We’re not sure if there’s any “good” strategy Trump could even use at this point. But he’s certainly picked just about the worst strategy possible.

Trump keeps insisting that the laws somehow don’t say what they really say. He continued this theme today with this social media meltdown: “The PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS ACT rules the FAKE Indictment brought against me by the Department of Injustice and Deranged Jack Smith. They never even mention this FACT.”

It’s that last part that’s surreal. Not only is Trump fantasizing about what the law even says, he’s going on to complain that no one in the real world is indulging in his fantasy. It’s like when the drunk at the end of the bar claims that all birds are secretly robots, and then points to the media’s total lack of coverage of this “scandal” as supposed proof of a coverup.

Of course the guy at the bar is just drunk and maybe he’ll sober up the next day and return to the real world. But Donald Trump doesn’t exist in the real world. Now that everything has fallen apart for him, he lives in some fantasy world where he’s still large and in charge. The worse things get for Trump, the more he seemingly becomes confused about what’s even real. He’s already at a point where he’s telling himself the law says something different than what it says, just so he can get through the day without giving up – and he’s not even at trial yet.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our GoFundMe Page or our PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
