Donald Trump resurfaces with ridiculous looking bandage on his ear as the whole thing gets even stupider

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.

Donald Trump spent three days in hiding after getting injured in a shooting. Not only did he fail to appear in public for the announcement of his running mate, he also failed to call the widow of the Trump supporter who was murdered at his rally. Nor did Trump’s people ever make any public statements about his medical condition.

Now Trump has finally resurfaced. Tonight he lumbered into the Republican National Convention, complete with a giant… something taped to the side of his head. It looked like Trump’s handlers taped a giant piece of notebook paper over Trump’s ear in order to give the appearance that his ear was bandaged.

The absurdity of the “bandage” will get the most attention. But the bigger story is that Trump looks like – for lack of any other word – shit. He looks worn down, confused, and defeated, like a zombie who’s just waiting to fall down.

Yes, Trump got injured in a shooting three days ago. That would be enough to rattle anyone. But Trump just looks bad. He didn’t speak at all tonight, and it makes you wonder what kind of condition he’s even in. This is all just so bizarre.
