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.

The general consensus among observers is that Donald Trump got his butt kicked today by Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer when they held a nationally televised joint press conference. The question was whether the ever-delusional Trump knew that it went as poorly for him as it did. Now we know the answer: Trump was so frustrated by his failed press conference, he threw a physical tantrum immediately afterward.

Buried in the middle of a lengthy Los Angeles Times article about the press conference, we find this stunning revelation: “Trump appeared upset after leaving the meeting, flicking a folder and sending its papers flying out.” So we guess that answers that question. Trump was so painfully aware of how badly he was humiliated in front of the cameras today, started throwing things in frustration.

Nancy Pelosi also clearly knew that she won the press conference, as she quickly made private remarks that she knew would immediately be leaked, calling Trump a “skunk” and suggesting that his obsession with building a wall was a question of a his “manhood.” Talk about piling on.

Chuck Schumer knew he and Pelosi had won as well, as he grabbed the nearest microphone and made fun of Donald Trump for throwing a “temper tantrum.” Now we know that Trump’s temper tantrum was far more extensive than what we merely saw on camera today. It suggests that not only was he frustrated at losing the on-camera battle today, he’s also exasperated at how things are going so wrong for him in general. Prosecutors are moving in, and he’s been cornered.
