Donald Trump stunned into silence

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.

Donald Trump sure wants us to believe that he has a lot to say. He holds occasional rallies and rambles endlessly. He stands outside the courthouse and reads nonsense from a notepad that someone handed him. And he pukes out angry all caps social media rants throughout the day.

But over the past 24-plus hours, Trump has gone silent entirely. Last night his handlers were trying to make up for it by putting generic content on his social media page. But about sixteen hours ago, even that stopped.

Now that Trump’s criminal trial is basically over, and even his dementia riddled mind has likely figured out that he’s about to be convicted, it appears he’s been stunned into silence entirely.

Of course that’ll likely change soon enough, because there’s nothing Trump loves to do more than run his mouth. But for now, Trump isn’t even able to come up with words.
