They’re at it again

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’s funny. Since the debate, almost every poll shows Kamala Harris in the lead, usually outside the margin of error. Even some in the media are finally taking notice. But the media, BEING the media, is feverishly looking around for a way to dilute the excitement of Harris’s rise. And they’re doing backbends in their absurd gloom and doom theories. Here are a few for your viewing pleasure:

1)They’re (the polls) are not real.

Now I do notice NOBODY said that when Trump was in the lead. I didn’t hear reporters questioning ANY of the junk Republican polls mixed in with the quality ones.

2) The hidden trump’s vote.

Oh, please, media STOP with that one! If anything, there’s a hidden Harris vote. This theory is absurd.

3)Bad pollers.

Believe it or not, I heard several TV pundits say few believe the Quinnipiac poll showing Harris so far ahead. Again, that was never said when Trump was ahead. All this writer heard then was Democrats in disarray.

4)Yes, but it could change.

Duh.

5) But wait! It is Too close in swing states.

It isn’t so close to the swing states. But the media wants to make you believe that it is. Case in point: a poll showed Harris ahead outside the margin of error in Michigan and Pennsylvania. She was one point ahead in Wisconsin.

You know where this is going, don’t you? All of a sudden, headlines and chyrons like: Why is Wisconsin so close? Why isn’t Harris up by more in Wisconsin? It’s pathetic. You know what? When we win, it’ll be great to see crestfallen Republicans, but it will also be really cool to see crestfallen media pundits. Let’s make it happen.
