Thanks Trump!

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.

We all wish Donald Trump would have just packed up and left after he lost, instead of… whatever this is. Trump’s actions over the past week have been treasonous, terrorist, shameful, and utterly deranged. Trump’s actions have also been stupid, pointless, and self destructive.

I’ve spent every day of the past several years trying to convince everyone that Donald Trump was dangerously unfit, that he must be pushed back against at every turn, and – most important of all – that he must not get a second term. I guess I must have gotten somewhere with that message, because Trump lost by seven million votes. But there was still going to be a ton of work to be done in terms of making the people in the middle understand that Trump and his movement really do need to be forever crushed once he’s out of office.

Then last week happened. Trump was already helping to erode his future viability, and turn the people in the middle against him, by fiendishly trying to find some way to overthrow the election he lost. But when he incited a domestic terrorist attack in the Capitol building with most of the U.S. government inside, he did more to finish off himself and his movement than I ever could have.

Two-thirds of Americans now blame Trump for the domestic terrorist attack. A majority of Americans now want him removed before the end of his term. Twitter has banned Trump. The PGA is taking golf tournaments away from him. He’s now a lock to face federal criminal charges. And most Americans now finally see Trump’s supporters for the psychotic thugs that they’ve been all along.

So thanks, Donald Trump, for making my job easier. You’ve completely ruined yourself. You’ve choked off your own movement. You’ve convinced mainstream Americans that people like me have been right about you all along. Now please shut up and go away. If you insist on continuing to fight this, you’ll only do even more damage to yourself before it’s over.
