The end of Donald Trump is now in sight

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 took the stand on Monday, knowing – or perhaps not understanding – that in order to keep his assets he had to offer a compelling and believable explanation of why his assets weren’t obtained fraudulent. Instead Trump spent his testimony preening for imaginary cameras (did he think this trial was televised?) while gullibly allowing prosecutors to nudge him into confessing to fraud. Yesterday was, financially speaking, the end of Donald Trump.

It also served as a preview of how Trump will handle his criminal trials. Like the senile delusional has-been that he is, he’ll spend those trials trying to make a political argument for himself. And when he loses those trials, it’ll be the end of him in every sense.

Yesterday was a reminder that for all the hype, and for all the people on TV and Twitter who keep insisting that Trump finally has us right where he wants us, the cold hard reality is that he doesn’t have any sort of strategy – at all.

The idea that he can somehow magically use his criminal trials to get himself installed as President of the United States is utterly laughable. It wouldn’t be a real thing even if he were sharp as a tack, even if his attorneys were geniuses, and even if the charges against him were beatable. Instead he’s senile, his attorneys are pandering to his senility, and the charges against him are rock solid.

Donald Trump’s life is over. Not just his political relevance, not just his financial empire, but his life is over. This is a man who will soon start spending the rest of his life in a prison cell. He’ll have zero chance of getting out before he dies of old age. Trump’s belly flop in civil court yesterday was a good reminder of just how badly his hallucinatory “strategy” will play out in criminal court – and a good reminder that it’s already all over for this guy.
