Donald Trump’s dumb week just got even dumber

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 has already spent his week blowing off a town hall to listen to music and spending a rally talking about Arnold Palmer’s genitals. So was there a way his week could get even dumber? As it turns out, yes.

Today Trump put on a McDonald’s uniform and did a press conference from the drive thru window while pretending to work there – even though the restaurant was closed for the day. Trump looked wildly out of place, out of touch, confused, and inept. If anything it drove home the point that Trump wouldn’t be able to do such a job, or really any job.

This bizarre failed attempt at a photo op is already playing poorly for Trump in the media and on social media. What a disaster for him. All this does is help ensure that Trump is in for another week of worsening bad press – at a time when there are only two weeks left in the election.
