Donald Trump’s White House dumpster fire is burning

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.

There’s so much bad news right now, it’s difficult to know where to start. The coronavirus is spreading, and the U.S. government response appears to be nonexistent. The stock market is trying to make a comeback today, but no one expect it to last long. And we’re stuck with a psychologically incompetent president until November. But here’s something that might cheer you up.

The phrase “dumpster fire” is often used metaphorically to describe anything that’s going poorly, falling to pieces, or is an embarrassment. Donald Trump’s White House is frequently referred to as a dumpster fire. So it’s fitting that CNN’s Alexander Marquardt has posted footage of an actual dumpster fire outside of the White House.
