There are a handful that are on to what he is but most cling to his every made up story.

New Post on Palmer Report...Wisconsin (another update on Waukesha County)
New post on Palmer Report
Wisconsin recount: Waukesha County officials caught illegally hiding ballots from observers
by Bill Palmer
Four days into the Wisconsin statewide recount, one county in particular has emerged as the epicenter of controversy and corruption. Donald Trump won Waukesha County by a total of 66,320 votes, a margin three times as large as he won Wisconsin by overall. The county is refusing to do a hand recount, instead relying on the same machines which produced the original totals. Earlier today we reported that one recount observer had outright accused Waukesha officials of double-counting Trump's votes. And now Jill Stein is expanding on the Waukesha scandal.
Jill Stein, the third party candidate who initiated the recount effort in Wisconsin and two other states, sent out the following message to her recount observers. Palmer Report has obtained a verified copy of the email in question. In it, Stein formally accuses Waukesha County officials of violating the law by purposely hiding ballots from the observers:
While most counties are conducting their recounts in clear and transparent fashion, we have gotten reports of observers not being allowed near the recount tables or not being allowed to view the ballots. For instance, in Waukesha County, officials are entering the ballots in to the machine face down. Remember, we have a legal right to see the ballots.
Wisconsin law reads in part: Each party to a recount must be given an opportunity to object and provide offers of evidence on: the procedures followed, any ballot cast at the election, any other issues presented to the board of canvassers during the recount.
Notably, Waukesha County is just one of twelve Wisconsin counties, out of seventy-two counties overall, which are refusing to a hand recount. The increasing level of fraud and illegal activity on the part of Waukesha recount observers may give Stein sufficient cause to convince the judge in question to order the county to do a hand recount.
Which of course sends them into a lathered up frenzy.
A few though still have some element of critical thinking.

15. Perhaps a bit of 'caveat lector', until his sources check out ...
A lot of what he blogs on is 'good news' we'd all want to get.
We just have to be cautious, since the plague of 'fake news' is rampant on the right-wing side, but by no means confined there.

8. Palmer Report...again.
This is starting to look like fantasy. Almost all of these reports are coming from one blog and not being reported anywhere else. We criticize the republicans for fake news and not having the common sense to sort out fact from fiction and yet everyone descends on anything this guy reports on like it's *real* news. Hardly anyone else is reporting this..and it's not because of a conspiracy.

13. The Palmer Report Is...
Putting out fake news on WAY TOO MANY Progressive/Liberal Blogs/Forums and Sites on Facebook/The Web/Google + and ANYWHERE else they can receive a page view.
Earlier, in a Progressive Group we administrate on Facebook, guess what link magically appears there? You guess it, the "Palmer Report" from a person that had only posted in the group ONCE. We deleted the post and informed our Group Members we will NOT accept postings from the "Palmer Report" or "Daily News Bin". In other words, only legitimate, non-click bait and verifiable resources are accepted in the group.
If folks on the left think that fake or click-bait "news" only is a Right-Wing issue, they better wake up quick and smell the coffee. It's both sides and everywhere.

Who has no problem making stuff up.
That is the extent of it though.
