The object of Donald Trump’s discontent

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.

Jealousy and verbal abuse often go hand in hand. Jealousy isn’t the only reason one lashes out verbally, but sometimes it can be the culprit of bitter people who choose to target someone because, deep inside, they want what that person has. Or they want to be that person.

They may lash out as a way to control the person. This happens often, especially in romantic relationships. Other times there comes a fixation on the object of anger, a cloud of rage, a glaring discontent, and a deep desire to shame the person.

That is often done out of jealousy — envy — and hatred. And this is what I believe Donald Trump is suffering from right now. The object of his discontent? Jack Smith. It’s important to remember that Trump picks and chooses the people he lashes out at. Some get off with nary a whisper from Trump. Others feel the full sting of his pathology.

Smith is one that Trump. from the beginning, has brutally attacked on truth social. Trump has gone after Smith, his person, and his family, and he won’t stop. He has called Smith a lunatic, a thug, a monster, and much more. His attacks on Smith go on and on, seemingly having no end. Trump’s rage is a tsunami, a dark and battered one, without end, rising from the depths of his wreckage of a soul.

And yes, I think it is envy where Smith’s concerned. This is because Smith is everything Trump always wanted to be but couldn’t. Smith is utterly fearless; Nothing seems to scare him or even give him pause. He shows no sign or acknowledgment of donald trump(name not in caps purposely) except to turn that smoldering stare on him, which has a message: you’re screwed.

Smith has a loving family. He’s good — no great — at his job. He’s deeply admired. He has prosecuted war criminals, the type of people Trump no doubt worships. He is a man COMFORTABLE IN HIS SKIN.

And for the baby Trump, the little one with the insane Id, this would trigger him. He’d want to “break” Jack Smith, subjugate him, shame him and then some. Only it will never happen. Because the type of person Jack Smith is does not have it within him to fear, to be shamed by an arrogant little weasel, a traitor.

Smith is the type of person with the potential to really drive donald trump insane — because Trump has rarely dealt with someone so bold and incorruptible. And all the mean words in the world won’t detour Smith. And Trump just can’t cope with that.
