Told you Donald Trump was only pretending to “contest” the election so he could pocket the money

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.

All week Palmer Report has been pointing out that Donald Trump was only pretending to contest the election results as an excuse to raise funds for his election legal fund from his gullible supporters. This was confirmed when the fine print revealed that 60% of the donations to Trump’s election legal fund were indeed going directly to Trump. Now it’s even uglier than that.

Reuters is reporting tonight that 100% of any donations under $8,000 are going into Trump’s pocket. No really, this is all just a cash grab. Trump knows he can’t magically overturn the election. He’s been counting on his supporters not figuring that out for awhile.

But with his allies like Robert Jeffress and even Karl Rove now publicly telling Trump it’s over, and polling showing that nearly 80% of Americans agree Biden won, Trump’s grifting scheme is running short on time.
