Everyone piles on after Donald Trump floats Trump News Network

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.

With just three weeks until he becomes irrelevant to all but the criminal justice system, Donald Trump isn’t exactly getting the kind of media coverage he’d like. Now he’s lashing out in frustration, suggesting that Fox News is “almost as bad” as CNN, and that “new alternatives are developing!”

In response, everyone is just making fun of him. In fact so many people are mocking the idea of him launching some kind of Trump News Network, the phrase is currently trending atop Twitter.

Here’s the question, though: on the day Donald Trump is arrested by New York State officials, what will Trump News Network cover? At that point its top headline might end up being “Hey look over there, a squirrel!”
