Source close to Donald Trump says he’s “out of his mind” tonight

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.

It would be difficult to argue that Donald Trump has been mentally or psychologically competent at any point during his failed presidency. He’s certainly been mentally incompetent since he lost the election. But with everything unraveling today in the form of a pro-Trump terrorist attack on the U.S. Capitol building, things have apparently gotten even uglier.

CNN’s Jim Acosta is reporting on air that a source close to Donald Trump says he’s “out of his mind” tonight. This means that even one of Trump’s own close allies thinks Trump is completely gone, and is concerned enough to tell the media about it.

In other words, Donald Trump is falling apart as badly as we all suspected. There’s growing pressure on Mike Pence tonight to invoke the 25th Amendment, including from some Republican-leaning groups. We’ll see what happens.
