In short

The episode argues that Donald Trump’s late-night social media activity (around 12:35 a.m.) shows cognitive/physical decline and reckless behavior, while also tying it to ongoing Iran negotiations and alleged misinformation/harassment.

Guest backgrounds

Key claims

Trump posted “extremely good” Walter Reed exam results while the host claims the post contradicts his health; the host calls Trump’s dementia-test claims misleading; the host alleges Trump harasses E.

2:21Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump was spiraling out of control at 12.35 a.m. in the morning. He was making social media post after post about his physical condition. This followed that disastrous interview with his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, where he looked like he was going to collapse at any moment, both physically and cognitively, at 12.35 a.m. in the morning. Here's what Donald Trump posted. the results of my physical examination taken at Walter Reed Medical Center and just released were extremely good. Pause right there. This post by you shows that your health is not extremely good. This very post is evidence that there's something seriously wrong with you.

3:01Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump goes on to write, unlike other US presidents, none of whom have ever taken an improved, highly difficulty cognitive test. I've scored a perfect 30 out of 30 considered extreme intelligence. No, it's not an extreme intelligence test. It's not an IQ test. It's literally a screening for dementia that you're not supposed to take over and over again. Maybe you're supposed to take it once, but it's the same exam that you take over and over again. Then he goes, are the Democrats really surprised? In fact, this is my fourth such test, all perfect or 120 correct answers out of 120 questions asked.

3:38Ben Meiselas:Well, it said 30 out of 30 on that fabricated or what I'm, in my opinion, believe to be a fabricated report because there was so many red flags on that report, in my opinion. Then Trump goes, it's very rare that anyone gets a perfect score, especially when achieved four times in a row. It's the same exam. It's a dementia screening, man. It's a dementia screening, man. You know, Aaron Rupar posted this video that shows all of Donald Trump's posts that he was making all throughout the night. I'll show you right now so you can just visually see it. It was post after post, about 100 or so posts that he was making that are like this.

4:16Ben Meiselas:And then he attacks E. Jean Carroll yet again at like midnight. He's attacking E. Jean Carroll, the woman who he was found to have sexually assaulted. I mean, folks, we can't normalize this behavior. This is supposed to be the president of the United States at midnight is attacking a woman who he sexually assaulted on social media and harassing her. Here's what he writes. E. Jean Carroll has accused seven men in the past of sexually assaulting or raping her. Not one police report exists on any of these incidents. And as you know, he ordered the Justice Department and FBI to criminally investigate her involving the case where she won, where a jury found in her favor and found Trump liable for sexual assault, which was upheld on appeal by the Second Circuit Court of Appeal.

5:10Ben Meiselas:Then late last night, Donald Trump's posting photos of himself and Xi Jinping talking about ballrooms. And he goes, see, they have a ballroom. It's called the Great Hall of China. It's very large and beautiful. Why do people fight me for having something even better? Democrats are crazy. Then he posts a AI image of himself like kissing the flag. He does more graphics about his physical exam and it says vitals, excellent. Cognitive, excellent. Lab results, excellent. Cholesterol, cardiac lipids, excellent. This is what he's posting all throughout the night. Then he attacks the Pope. He attacks Pope Leo XIV again, par for the course.

5:58Ben Meiselas:This guy always attacks the Pope. Someone should explain to the Pope that the mayor of Chicago is useless and that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, Donald J. Trump. And then you saw that interview with Donald Trump and Lara Trump, where Trump said that he did not take out the Iranian military. He says, I like the Iranian military, he says. They're moderate people. And a lot of people think in war, you're supposed to go after the military of the other side. Nope. I keep them around because they're the moderates. You're saying the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps are the moderates? What about your posts where you were saying that you obliterated the military?

6:40Ben Meiselas:Wasn't that your MAGA talking point, that you destroyed them? I mean, this was your post. The fake news media is crazy or just plain corrupt. The United States has completely destroyed Iran's military, including their entire Navy and Air Force and everything else. Their leadership is dead. The Strait of Hormuz will soon be open and the empty ships are rushing to the United States to load up. But if you listen to the fake news, we're losing. That was April 11th, 2026. And I'm sure I could find for you mid-March posts and statements that are the same, but you get the point. April 11, 2026. And then when he was doing an interview with his daughter-in-law, he's doing an interview with his daughter-in-law on regime media.

7:26Ben Meiselas:Can I even, the words I'm uttering right now are so damn crazy. And this is what he says about leaving Iran's military intact. Here, play this clip. Their Navy is totally gone, 100%. Their Air Force is totally gone, 100%. their military we've sort of left it alone because we think that their military is somewhat uh somewhat moderate they have other people that aren't moderate we've taken them out we've taken different forms of leadership out we've actually left their military alone people would be surprised to hear that because mistakes have been made in wars where you wipe out everybody and then you have a country that's you know for 40 years can never rebuild you look and what happened with...

8:09Ben Meiselas:And folks, if you thought he was done there posting late at night, no. He posts that same image, that AI image of himself looking like a creep kind of peering over at Greenland. Hello, Greenland. He posts that after the attack on the Pope. He then writes drone port. He posts a weird AI images of all these different drones on the White House roof. the drone port on the roof of the White House ballroom. It's an AI image with drone port. Why drone port? Drone port attacking Pope, attacking a lady who you were found liable of sexually assaulting. What are you doing? What are we doing here? Then he posts this weird image straight out of some authoritarian C movie with his finger pointing at you.

9:05Ben Meiselas:He then posts about Rosie O'Donnell, the five stages of Trump derangement syndrome, and then uses AI images of her at the end. He posts this weird photo of himself and George Washington riding horses together. He posts an image and says, this is crap that Obama had in the reflecting pool. He posts a image of a statute in Columbus Circle and then says Biden, Trump. He posts a weird AI image of the White House with a golden dome over it and says the golden dome of the White House. He posts the Mount Rushmore with his face on it. He posts an AI image of Trump Peace Prize. He then attacks all of the Republican Congress members, the small group who had a spine when it came to releasing the Epstein files.

9:55Ben Meiselas:and then he has an AI image of like Massey and Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene and Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens. And look, I'm not saying these are courageous people generally. I'm saying they did the right thing when it came to the Epstein files, okay? As anybody should. It's exposing a child sex trafficking ring. It shouldn't be a difficult task right there. But then Trump attacks them all. Get in, loser. We're going losing because they wanted to release the Epstein files. What? Then he's posting these weird images that are obviously dog whistles. It's like a white family from the 1950s.

10:38Ben Meiselas:Billions were spent to convince you this is evil. Who's spending billions to convince anyone that that's evil? What's evil is that you're using it in a way that's obviously a dog whistle to racism. Oh, is it being racism? I was just posting that image. Now we know what you're doing, posting weird photos of himself and George Washington next to each other. This is what. And then late last night, again, right around 10 p.m. East Coast time. So right before he started posting all that deranged stuff, Barack Ravid from Axios added it again, Barack Ravid goes, Trump wants the deal and believes it will be signed soon with Iran.

11:22Ben Meiselas:But he's interested in strengthening several clauses that are particularly important to him, mainly regarding the enriched uranium in Iran's possession, two senior U.S. officials said. So he couldn't get a deal with Iran since they keep on rejecting him. So his plan is, let me ask for more. That'll be a great negotiation. This guy's never been able to negotiate anything his whole damn life. He's a destroyer, not a builder. He's a relentless harasser. The one thing that he does is he just overwhelms you with this harassment that I'm showing you in these posts. It's that behavior. It's that deluge of nonstop toxicity where lots of humans respond by saying, you know what?

12:12Ben Meiselas:Enough. What do you want me to give you? Just can you stop it? But that's why you have to stand up to it. You have to push back. You have to fight back. He goes, this is Barack Ravid says, Trump's request has opened another round of exchanges of drafts and comments between the parties, which may last several days. Oh, interesting, Barack. Several days you'll manipulate the market. We're so close. We're so close. More market manipulation. More 3 ,800 stock trades by Donald Trump in the first quarter. I'm sure he's stock trading right now. Barack Ravid goes, the US official said Trump was told it would take around three days before the Iranians get back with the response.

12:55Ben Meiselas:They're literally in caves and they're not using email. The senior administration official said, ah, that's why we haven't been able to do a deal since early March when Trump said we were about to do a deal. The Iranians are in caves. They're cavemen. They're cave people, everybody. Do we have the footage right here of the parades last night that were in Tehran Square? Yeah, pull up the B-roll of this. The Iranians were celebrated around their new fast boats that they use in the Strait of Hormuz, which they've been used to effectively control the Strait of Hormuz and not allow any of the tankers to pass.

13:40Ben Meiselas:Oh, my God, they're in caves. Look at the cave people right there. Wow. No, they're in Tehran Square every night. Hundreds of thousands of people have been showing up in Tehran. It's going to cross Iran. Didn't Trump and Netanyahu say that what was going to happen immediately was it was going to crash. and they were going to say, Trump, Netanyahu, please give us your Trump and Netanyahu puppet. That's what we really want, a Trump and Netanyahu puppet in Iran. Parakhraveed goes on to say, there will be a deal. The imminence of it, we'll see. We're willing to wait so the president gets what he asks for.

14:17Ben Meiselas:It could be a week. It could be less. It could be more. At the turn of the week, we hope to have something. The senior administration, official said, ooh, very detailed right there. Wow. And there's more of the same right there. That senior American official said that Trump was told it could take about three days because they're hiding in caves, but there will be a deal. How close? We'll wait and see. We'll find out the riddle next time on the next episode of Market Manipulation. So utterly pathetic. So you want to see with the leaders? Here, you have the foreign ministry spokesperson with the IRGC spokesperson.

14:56Ben Meiselas:Here's their post. Field and diplomacy side by side for one nation, for one country, for one goal, ready for any situation. Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson said, if you make me armor clad for the play of blades, if you gird my waist for the making of peace, to whatever you show me of hot and cold, I am receptive from reconciliation to battle. Come with whatever you have of sword and cup, for in both of these, I have a full hand. Oh, we have Foreign Minister Aragchi meeting with the Foreign Minister of Oman. In very productive call with the Foreign Minister of Oman, we expressed Iran's solidarity with Oman in the face of any threat.

15:42Ben Meiselas:We discussed Hormuz and its future administration in line with our sovereign responsibilities in international law. We welcome consultation with all neighboring states. Aha, the cave people. They're in caves, I suppose. Or Ahmed Vahidi took over the role from Ali Larajani, who's now become one of the most powerful figures within the Iranian regime, according to Western intelligence sources. and someone less compromising than Larajani. If I know Ali Larajani, if I know Foreign Minister Aragchi, if I know about M.B. Goluboff, the parliament leader, if I know about Abraham Azizi, I can go down and list for you all.

16:28Ben Meiselas:I know who all of these people are. I know who their underlings are. I know who their underlings are. I know how their parliament works. I know how their committees and commissions work. I shouldn't know more than you know, than the Trump regime. Yeah. I mean, what are we doing here? What are we doing here? I'll tell you what we're doing here. More MQ-9 Reaper drones being shot out of the sky by Iran. The United States will break the ceasefire, but then go, we didn't break the ceasefire. They'll attack a location near the straight-in for moves like happened 48 hours ago. And then they'll go, that wasn't offensive.

17:10Ben Meiselas:That was defensive. Then Iran responds, strikes a Kuwaiti airbase. Five Americans are injured, service members and contractors. The Trump regime covers up. There's no statement that five Americans have been injured in the Kuwaiti airport with a direct strike by Iran in response to the U.S. breaking the ceasefire and attacking the straight-in. We just don't talk about that. Multiple MQ-9 Reaper shot down, that gets covered up. But you got Barack Revee to Donald Trump and Trump posting at 1235 AM. All of that deranged, deranged stuff. And then Donald Trump talking to Lara Trump about the ballroom, drone ports, sniper ports play this clip.

17:57Ground floor of the ballroom. This will be the kitchen floor. Oh, the kitchen. And then the floor above, there'll be one above that. And then you have the drone ports and you have the sniper ports and you have everything about it. Wow. Can't wait. It's all one unified unit. Yeah, it's really... We can't wait to see. It's gonna be great. I love to watch it.

18:13Ben Meiselas:So this room... And finally, he concludes with saying that Eric Trump has the gene, the way Trump has a gene for building. This is the guy who's leading the United States. This should not be a political thing. this shouldn't what I just showed you here in this video nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans like this is a crazy human this is a psycho I mean I don't want to describe it I'm not trying to like be I'm not trying to be hyperbolic or in fun it is this is what are we what the hell is this what is seriously what tell us this play this clip pretty good fellas yeah well the best part is this is what you used to do as a developer.

19:00This is what I did. I did this better than anybody. Although you're you're you're a man is very good. Eric. I have to say Eric Trump is a really good builder. He has the gene. Yep. He has a gene that I have. I have my gene and Eric really has it. He's done a great job. He's a fantastic builder. He looked at this, understood it immediately.
