Time to pull the plug

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.

– Twitter has been forced to take punitive action against eight out of Donald Trump’s last eleven tweets. It’s time for them to pull the plug on his account for good.

– Trump has spent years accusing nonwhite people of being “illegal” people, so it’s not surprising that in the end he’s accusing votes cast by nonwhite people of being “illegal” votes.

– The media is mostly not even talking about the fact that Trump is now earmarked for prison and bankruptcy. That means their analysis and predictions for the transition period are going to be useless for now, because they’re ignoring the primary motivations for Trump’s behavior and choices. Trump is going to spend this time trying to pilfer money and give himself a soft landing with regard to his criminal charges. Anything else said by him, or said by the media about him, will just be a distraction.
