Donald Trump just went into full-on panic mode

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.

The United States response to the coronavirus has been a disaster. Donald Trump slashed the CDC budget two years ago, and now there aren’t even enough testing kits to go around. No one has any idea how many undiagnosed cases there may be as a result.

But don’t worry, because Donald Trump wants you to know that he somehow magically has this all under control:

Not only is every word of this tweet false, the Washington Post reported last night that Donald Trump shook hands with Matt Schlapp on the final day of CPAC, and that Schlapp interacted with a CPAC attendee who has since tested positive for coronavirus. In other words, Trump may have been exposed to coronavirus himself.
