Just how bad of physical and cognitive shape is Donald Trump in right now? Within the first few minutes of his coronavirus press conference today, he struggled to pronounce “coronavirus” and he appeared to be surprised to learn that Republican Senator John Boozman exists. Trump also seemed to be struggling to breathe right out of the gate, as has become his custom.

One thing that stands out as being different today is that – at least thus far – Donald Trump is largely reading from a script. He often opens these press conferences by simply babbling at random, but today he’s been sticking to whatever words his advisers decided to put in his mouth.

Perhaps that’s because Donald Trump is in such obvious bad physical and cognitive shape today, his handlers are trying to cover for him today. In any case, there’s still no excuse for this garbage to be live on the air. At one point Trump announced that people with lupus aren’t catching coronavirus, then he admitted “maybe it’s false.” He’s spreading dangerous misinformation again – and he needs to be cut off.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our GoFundMe Page or our PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
