In short

The episode argues Donald Trump is having a “12:15 a.m. meltdown” after a “historic defeat,” focusing on his social-media posts from France/G7 and his alleged weak foreign-policy actions, including a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) involving Iran. It also attacks Trump surrogates (e.g., Susie Wiles) and compares Trump to past conquerors, claiming he’s a “destroyer” not a “builder.”

3:00Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump is having a psychotic meltdown at 12.15 a.m. in the morning as he's heading back from France to the United States. You take a look at it. Post after post, some of the most deranged stuff he's posting from someone who he says, historian Dave King. This is what he's posting at 12.15 a.m. Donald Trump is without question the most powerful man that the planet has ever known by a long way. Historically, people were characterized by brutal conquest and fear that they instilled in populations like Alexander the Great, Caesars, Genghis Khan, Attila the Hun, Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin, Mao. That's who he's comparing himself to at 12, 15 a.m.

3:45Ben Meiselas:Then he goes on to say the overwhelming difference between each of the above when compared to Trump is their lack of global reach like Alexander the Great and the Caesars were confined to the Mediterranean and small parts of North Africa. Hitler repeated Napoleon's mistake in Russia. This is what Trump was posting at 12.15 a.m. as he was humiliated and defeated on the world stage by signing the Memorandum of Understanding after getting involved in this catastrophic war in Iran with Netanyahu. Here's what Donald Trump posts right after whatever the hell that was that I just read. He posts this, some guy named Tyrus with his shirt off.

4:29Ben Meiselas:What in the world also is going on with Donald Trump? Did you see him talk to Egyptian President El-Sisi, how handsome and good-looking you are, and I love staying in the hotel room with you? Did you see him talk to Prime Minister Modi and say, you're so good-looking and nice and so handsome? You see what he was saying to the reporter when he was with the president of the UAE? Oh, he's such a good-looking guy. He's so handsome. He's so good-looking. And that's what Donald Trump's been saying all over again. By the way, here's what he's also posting after posting a shirtless photo of a guy named Angus.

5:01Ben Meiselas:Oh, my gosh. I don't even want to. Okay. More posts at 12, 15 a.m. He goes, freed U.S. hostage. President Trump is the greatest commander in chief ever. Then he posts this. The technology the world relies on was invented in America. We all remember Intel Inside. Stupid presidents took our economy for granted and let Taiwan and others steal our semiconductor factories. They forgot to protect our industries with tariffs when I won my second term. Third, actually, it was clear America needed its semiconductor industry to come back. We design everything, but we need to build here. I mean, you're such a fraud.

5:40Ben Meiselas:Former President Biden developed the CHIPS Act, which was an actual piece of legislation to bring the semiconductor industry here. And you've irreparably harmed that by attacking the CHIPS Act and by also imposing tariffs, which harm certain component parts that would also allow us to build some of these semiconductors here as well. Then Donald Trump posts this at 12, 15 a.m. It's a list that says if Kamala had won, here's what would have happened. So just think about it. As Donald Trump has been thoroughly defeated, as Donald Trump has been demonstrated to be as weak as everybody thought he was, And here's what he's posting.

6:22Ben Meiselas:If Kamala had one, everybody, Kamala's in his head. Millions more illegals over the border. Billions more in health and welfare fraud. Criminals release speech controls, everybody. Ah, speech controls, gun restrictions, more trans propaganda in our schools, reparations, gasoline at$10 per gallon. So Trump's saying, even though right now you're probably paying$6 a gallon, It would have been much worse under a hypothetical scenario if former Vice President Kamala Harris won. No, let me tell you what would have happened, idiot, if former Vice President Kamala Harris won. We would probably have a booming manufacturing job market right now because she would have continued what was happening towards the end of former President Biden's presidency.

7:11Ben Meiselas:I know you talk about your stock markets. Yeah, the stock markets would have been booming far higher than they are now. it wouldn't even have been close. You would have had interest rates reduced because she wouldn't have done tariffs against the world. She would have had a compassionate immigrant policy that probably had a pathway to citizenship for people who were here working and paying taxes, who met certain criteria while making sure that people who were here and committing crimes or engaged in unlawful acts were deported. You were the one, Donald, who destroyed the comprehensive immigration bill that could have actually resulted in a great deal of benefit and compassion and growth for our economy.

7:53Ben Meiselas:So just think about how desperate and pathetic you are that you're aboard Air Force One that's been given to you by the Qataris. You're flying back from France after the most humiliating G7. You just signed an MOU in Farsi, I might add, because of course we all know that Donald Trump speaks Farsi. Did you all know that the MOU, here's Iranian President in Pazeski and he's holding it up. Look at it. Zoom in. It's Farsi. Donald Trump. And just so you see what the White House posted, so you see it's like, well, Ben, maybe that was a different version. No, no. This is from the White House account.

8:26Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump signed the agreement in Farsi. And my own personal view is I actually think that signing this surrender was the only deal. You break it, you fix it. And so I'm actually glad we entered into a deal. The American people should never have had to bear and will continue to bear the consequences of Donald Trump's reckless, irresponsible, malicious, and war criminal behavior with Netanyahu. But we need to get out of there and we need to focus on America, getting American people health care, making sure Americans can afford homes, making sure Americans get jobs. That's what we need to be focused on right now.

9:04Ben Meiselas:But Donald Trump, again, so utterly weak and pathetic. Susie Wiles, Donald Trump's handler, I mean, Chief of Staff posts, like she posts this as though like they just got back from like a Carnival Cruise trip. There has been so many memorable moments and days and accomplishments at the G7. The G7 was a huge success, an opportunity to make sure that members and other participants see America first. We had a great time. It's like a, like I tell you, like a Carnival Cruise poster. We had a great time. We loved the buffet. It was quite amazing. We got to experience a great deal together. The trip was capped off with a beautiful dinner and birthday celebration for Donald Trump at Versailles.

9:47Ben Meiselas:Yes, the location where Germany signed the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 and surrendered in World War I. That's where you sign the Memorandum of Understanding. It was truly spectacular. A golden palace, right? I mean, we all know that Donald Trump loves golden palaces. particularly after his blistering schedule of bilateral and other meetings and working sessions. Nobody works harder than Donald. Now Trump signed the MOU at dinner while the next 60 days present challenges and important details are worked out. Signing was a great step forward for America. Folks, these are truly the most pathetic human beings.

10:31Ben Meiselas:Put your politics aside. These are the most pathetic human beings. Rubio to what was going on. Did you see Rubio's face during this thing? Rubio understood the gravity of what the hell was happening. Here, play this clip. This way, if it works out, I'm going to take the credit. If it doesn't work out, I'm blaming JD. You better be careful, JD. He's going to turn his plane around and get the hell out of here. Yeah, I like that idea. I think it's a good idea. And the reality is, is that Donald Trump admitted before leaving that he was checkmated, right? Trump made the admission and said, had we not entered into this MOU, there would have been a global depression.

11:08Ben Meiselas:He said the oil reserves were about to run out in just a few weeks. Remember, that's what I've been saying on the Midas Touch Network. And a lot of people were saying, oh, Ben, you're being hyperbolic. And I said, yeah, we're probably about a week and a half away from a global economic depression is what I was predicting. And Donald Trump literally says what I've been saying, which I'm not sure if it's a good thing, but he admits it. Here, play this clip. So the one thing I didn't want to see is I didn't want to see economic catastrophe. If you kept this going, that could have happened. But all I know is every time we talked about the possibility of peace, the stock market shot up like a rocket ship.

11:46It never went down. They didn't like it. The people, you know, the stock market is more brilliant than anybody there is, including the people on this stage other than me, of course. Let's see. I don't know. What do you think, Scott? Is the stock market more brilliant than you? No, sir. Oh, that's a terrible statement. All right. The stock market is quite brilliant. And every time we said something amazing, like we're going to settle, it would go up. And every time we said something negative, like guess what? We're not going to be able to settle. It would go down very big, Peter. Very, very big.

12:28Tells you something.

12:29Ben Meiselas:That's the wonderful trip, Susie Wiles. A beautiful trip with a blistering schedule. And this was as Donald Trump was leaving Versailles. He's leaving Versailles. Thinking about golden ballrooms, chanfer arches, Versailles. What did Jared Kushner say? We were leaving Montenegro and we were heading to Dittor and we saw this island in Albania. We're like, we have to have this island. And then Ivanka was like, yes, Chad, we need this island. Did we discover it, Chad? Okay, I digress right there. Anyway, Donald Trump is leaving Versailles and he gets really weird with Bridgette Macron. And he goes in for like a double kiss and she like pulls away.

13:14Ben Meiselas:I'll just show you what happens here. Let's play this clip. We're necessarily positive. I saw the Canadian leader come out and say he liked it. Have you heard anything from our allies? Yep. And so as the main wonk says, it's the most destructive and weak America foreign policy in history. Surrender to the Taliban. Surrender to Iran. Bend the knee to Russia. Bend the knee to China. Attack NATO. Weaken alliances. Threaten to invade Greenland. Although Greenland's probably like, invade us if we can get such a good deal. Threaten to invade Canada. Pretend to end eight wars. Demand you get a FIFA Peace Prize and you lost the one war that you started.

13:57Ben Meiselas:Remember when Donald Trump posted back on July 16, 2015, no deal is better than a bad deal. America out-negotiated again. Or November 24, 2013, what a rotten deal we made with Iran. We get nothing except laughter and stupidity. They get everything, including delay and big cash. Not really sure what my accent was even intending to be there. But I could show you 10 ,000 posts of Donald Trump because Donald Trump isn't a builder. He is a destroyer. He's not a dealmaker. He is a deal breaker. He is a contract breacher. He doesn't honor anything. He has no honor. He's a fraud, a con artist, a pathetic, vile, weak piece of trash.

14:46Ben Meiselas:That will be his legacy. forever staining the United States of America with his orange. I don't even want to say it. Remember Don Jr. Biden is so desperate for a deal. He's trying to hand billions to Iran to remove the regime terrorist. Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. This was posted on the Ayatollah's website. I guess we should expect nothing less from the terrorist regime. My father had Iran. My daddy, my daddy had Iran almost bankrupt. But then Biden and Harris gave him billions, making it far more dangerous. Enough. It's like a loser family. This is a family of pathetic freaking losers. Don Jr. Woke won't win wars.

15:32Ben Meiselas:Ask yourself, do you really trust guys like Weirdo Walls to deal with our biggest adversaries like Iran? Plus, if Walls is willing to lie about his service record, what else is he willing to lie about? Your dad was a draft dodger who said our veterans are suckers and losers. And this is what Don Jr. was posting August of 2024. He goes, this is January 29, 2024. How many more Iran-funded terror hits will happen with the$6 billion that Joe Biden gave them? How many more great Patriot soldiers killed? He doesn't care about Patriots, this or that or the other. This is what they do. They are frauds.

16:15Ben Meiselas:This is what they do. They fear monger. And they are a bunch of damn losers. And when they're in power, you're seeing what losers they are. I'll show you, though, who's not a loser. Someone who's on what I think is a short list of people who may become the next president of the United States, Senator Ossoff. We caught up with him. Here's what he told our reporters on Capitol Hill. Let's play it. Real quick, what do you make of Donald Trump's sort of cognitive decline at the G7? He's been saying all kinds of crazy things. The president has been humiliated on the world stage. And many Americans are increasingly concerned about his stability and his capacity in the office.

17:05It's deeply distressing to Americans across the political spectrum to see a president so incompetent and so incapable attempting and failing to represent the nation internationally. Got it. Thank you, Senator.
