0:30Ben Meiselas:After the election wipeout and total repudiation of Donald Trump last night, Donald Trump's cognitive issues, his physical health issues are becoming very, very pronounced and prominent. People are asking questions that we've been asking here at the Midas Touch Network for some time. Now, what the White House had previously said is that Donald Trump was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, which they said was because he did a lot of handshakes and was just working so hard. And that's why his hands looked like they were stuck in a piranha tank and why his ankles had swollen so large. The White House had also denied that Donald Trump experienced mini strokes or that he had dementia.

1:21Ben Meiselas:They said, nope, he's perfectly healthy. And they pointed to a physical that was taken in early April. And then they said he was getting another physical that took place in early to mid-October. But then one of the things that we analyzed in that other physical in mid-October, first red flag is another physical right away, a semi-annual physical. First, the White House said it was the annual physical. Then we pointed it out. No, you did that in April. Then you had Ronnie Jackson, Donald Trump's former doctor, the candy man, they call him a Congress member from Texas. He was like, it's the chronic Venus insufficiency testing that they're doing.

2:00Ben Meiselas:And then Donald Trump's like, no, it's just a semi annual physical. When we looked at that report from October 10th, 2025, you zoom in and it talks about that there was advanced imaging done, which remember right away, I said MRI. And the question is where is that MRI being taken? Is it the MRI in the head area? Is it an MRI somewhere in the body? Does it have to do with cognitive issues? Does it have to do with the chronic venous insufficiency issues? Is it kidney issues? Is it heart issues? And so those were prominent questions. So Caroline Levitt was asked yesterday during a press conference that she held.

2:41Ben Meiselas:So why did Donald Trump get this MRI? Because Trump admitted that he got it. And Trump said, my doctors will be happy to tell you about the MRI results. Trump said it was a perfect MRI, the most perfect MRI ever. So members of the press then asked Donald Trump's doctor, the doctor who was listed on the report. They said, hey, Sean Barabella, you're a D.O. that's what you are. Okay, Dio, Barabella, tell us what was the advanced imaging? We'd like to see the reports. The Trump doctors went silent, refused to get back to the press. So Caroline Levitt was asked. Watch this here, play this clip. Why did President Trump get an MRI during his recent visit to all three?

3:27Look, as President Trump said, he would inquire with the physicians. I'll check back on that. But as the physical itself stated, Kirsten, and as you all know, because you were all witness to it every single day. The president is in optimal physical health. This was a follow-up appointment, and we provided a detailed readout of that physical. I'm happy to give it to you again, and I can inquire further. With all due respect, an MRI is a very specific procedure. It's done on a part of the body looking for something specific, so it's not generally part of any kind of routine checkup. In addition, President Trump has said that he wants to be transparent.

3:59He has told us to ask the doctors, which we have and have not heard back. Why don't we have more information on this? As I said, I'll check back for you.

4:06Ben Meiselas:And that's their new move by Caroline Levitt. It's not the new move. But you know how Donald Trump has his way of just kind of avoiding the questions. The way Caroline Levitt, just putting it lightly, Caroline Levitt says, we'll get you, we'll get back to you. And then she never gets back to them. And by the way, those were the right questions being asked by the press because Caroline Levitt, what, thinks we're stupid and was like, yeah, everybody gets MRIs during their physical. No, as the member of the press said, it's a specific body part. So what body part was the MRI on? Folks, their lies tell me that there's something very serious going on.

4:41Ben Meiselas:Now, you remember when Donald Trump was in Japan and he was wandering around, right? And the prime minister, Takeishi, had to like walk him because he didn't know where he was. We've shown you the video clips of Donald Trump when he rolled out the red carpet for Vladimir Putin. He was zigzagging. He couldn't walk straight. We know these issues exist with Donald Trump. And I think now as a result of the election wipeout that just took place, people are asking, does this guy have dementia? And I don't want to use it as a crutch for us to forget about how horrible, how punitive, how disgusting of a human being.

5:16Ben Meiselas:I'm not trying to conjure sympathy, but I think the questions GWS, has he had mini strokes? Does he have dementia? What the hell is happening with this despicable human being? Here was Donald Trump when he was on the plane. This was October 27th, 2025. Trump on his recent trip to Walter Reed, he says it was the perfect MRI. Play this clip.

5:56We have doctors traveling with us, but I think they gave you a very conclusive. Nobody has ever given you reports like I gave you. And if I didn't think it was gonna be good, either I would let you know negatively. I wouldn't run, I'd do something, but the doctor said some of the best reports for the age, some of the best reports they've ever seen.

6:18Ben Meiselas:And then he attacked AOC and said she has a low IQ because he says he passed another cognitive exam, another aptitude exam. Why do you keep taking these exams? Every six months you take a cognitive exam? That's not normal. The same way it's not normal to get all of these MRIs. Here's what Donald Trump said back on October 27th. Play this clip. They have Jasmine Crockett, a low IQ person. They have AOC's low IQ. You give her an IQ test, have her pass the exams that I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. I took, those are very hard, they're really aptitude tests, I guess, in a certain way, but they're cognitive tests.

7:01Let AOC go against Trump. Let Jasmine go against Trump. I don't think, Jasmine, the first couple of questions, there is a tiger, an elephant, a giraffe. You know, when you get up to about five or six, and then when you get up to 10 and 20 and 25, they couldn't come close to answering any of those questions.

7:20Ben Meiselas:What also happened on October 27th, because I just want to show you a contrast, right? All the MAGA Republicans are like, Biden had dementia. Biden auto-pen this, auto-pen that. Well, Donald Trump this past weekend to Nora O'Donnell on 60 Minutes, Donald Trump claimed he didn't know the crypto billionaire named CZ, the owner of Binance, the crypto billionaire involved in a criminal money laundering scheme with$4 billion of restitution that needs to be paid involving Hamas and Al-Qaeda and trafficking networks, horrible stuff. Trump's like, I don't know who I pardoned. He goes, you ready for this?

8:01Ben Meiselas:I don't know who I pardoned. Okay, well, you don't know who you pardoned. Isn't that what you were attacking former President Biden for? The hell are you talking about? By the way, here is former President Biden. That same day Donald Trump was bragging about another cognitive test that he took. This was Biden. Just so you can contrast, play this clip. Folks, we can't kid ourselves. We are in one of those moments right now. In my over 50 years of elected public life, this is the worst I've seen it. If Ted were here today, he'd still be fighting like hell, but his optimism would be surely tested because truth be told our very democracy is at stake in my view we all agree that our politics is broken that political violence never acceptable is out of hand that america should be a place not of extremism and fury but of decency and grace that our institutions what makes us envy the world and our democracy is worth fighting like hell for.

9:08Ben Meiselas:Now, last night, California Governor Gavin Newsom did an interview with Aaron Parnas, the Parnas Perspective, which is part of the Midas Touch network. And Newsom says, I don't even know if what Trump's doing is weakness masquerading as strength. It's just weakness masquerading as weakness. Play this clip. That's weakness. And I'm not even sure he's masquerading as strength anymore. It's just weakness across the board. And you can see this. You can read between the lines. The last few weeks, I just feel like he's one click behind. He's nowhere to be found. There's no clicks. No one wants to be associated with him in Virginia, in New Jersey, certainly in California.

9:48I mean, this guy is on an island, honestly. I felt like he was away last week, and it didn't even really matter. I mean, there was no deal. It didn't matter. So I sense, I don't want to overstate this. You saw him today trying to get in the game. Hey, what about me with Cuomo? What about me out here and saying he's going to sort of investigate us for criminal activity in California? Something's happening. So I think those folks that are saying that to you are absolutely right and spot on. But we have a lot of work to do going into 2026 because of those dark clouds. And this guy will get more desperate.

10:26And again, the rules do not apply to him. It's the rule of dawn. And we have to, I think, be mindful of that. This episode is brought to you by IQ Bar, our exclusive snack and hydration sponsor.

12:33Ben Meiselas:And here's what Governor Pritzker said as well, that Trump has dementia and should be removed from office. He's not mincing words here. Play this clip. It appears that Donald Trump not only has dementia set in, but he's copying tactics of Vladimir Putin sending troops into cities thinking that that's some sort of proving ground for war or that indeed there's some sort of internal war going on in the United States is just frankly inane and and I'm concerned for his help. The idea that you're going to go suggest that you're going to arrest people or that people don't deserve to be U.S. citizens be when they are just because they oppose the president of the United States.

13:20There is something genuinely wrong with this man. And the 25th amendment ought to be invoked.

13:26Ben Meiselas:And then when I interviewed Ruben Gallego, he said the same thing. He's like, Trump's got dementia. He goes, I'm pretty confident this guy's got dementia. Play this clip. I spoke with leader Jeffries. I spoke with leader Schumer. They both did interviews here. They go, we don't know what he's talking. He's not, he's, they're doing no, they're not even here. What in the world are they I mean, that in and of itself should be a major three alarm. Yeah. I mean, even when Donald Trump is in D.C., he's not really mentally in D.C. So we don't know who to negotiate with. And the fact is, we're getting closer to November 1st.

13:58Open enrollment happens then. Like Donald Trump has never dealt with insurance personally. He's never bought insurance. He's never had to go and figure out what insurance rates really are. Right. He's always had someone doing that, doing that for him. And you have Speaker Johnson and Leader Thune that know that. So they know how to manipulate this man. They have a goal. They want to destroy the ACA. Russ Vogt also is able to manipulate this president, too. And the president really, at the end of the day, all he cares about is destroying the legacy of Obamacare. And 24 million Americans are going to suffer because of that.

14:3024 million Americans are going to see their rate increase doubled. In Arizona, a family of four is going to see their premiums increase by almost$4 ,400. If you are a swing Republican in a swing district in an off-year election, why are you falling on this sword for this guy who's clearly checked out and needs to be probably put into some type of treatment program for whatever dementia he has, for Johnson, who comes from one of the safest districts in the country, who's covering for pedophiles, And for John Thune, who is, you know, in there for six years and he is not worried about members of Congress, but you have all these members of Congress that are diving themselves on the sword.

15:12For what? At the end of the day, they're going to end up losing their elections for something they could have easily affixed with just a simple compromise.

15:20Ben Meiselas:Now, the excuse that the White House gives was chronic Venus insufficiency. You'll recall that Caroline Levitt said this about it. Here, play this clip. Many in the media have been speculating about bruising on the president's hand and also swelling in the president's legs. So in the effort of transparency, the president wanted me to share a note from his physician with all of you today. In recent weeks, President Trump noted mild swelling in his lower legs. In keeping with routine medical care and out of an abundance of caution, this concern was thoroughly evaluated by the White House Medical Unit.

15:54The president underwent a comprehensive examination, including diagnostic vascular studies. Bilateral lower extremity venous Doppler ultrasounds were performed and revealed chronic venous insufficiency, a benign and common condition, particularly in individuals over the age of 70. Importantly, there was no evidence of deep vein thrombosis or arterial disease. Laboratory testing included a complete blood count, comprehensive metabolic panel, coagulation profile, D-dimer, B-type natriotic peptide, and cardiac biomarkers. All results were within normal limits. An echocardiogram was also performed and confirmed normal cardiac structure and function.

16:43No signs of heart failure, renal impairment, or systemic illness were identified. Additionally, recent photos of the president have shown minor bruising on the back of his hand. This is consistent with minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin, which is taken as part of a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen. This is a well-known and benign side effect of aspirin therapy. And the president remains in excellent health, which I think all of you witness on a daily basis here. So the president wanted me to share that note with all of you. I'm happy to take further questions on it.

17:19Ben Meiselas:But let's also remember the facts. Like, remember when Donald Trump recently was wandering on the roof of the White House and he was telling reporters that he's building nuclear weapons on the roof and that he pays for all of Washington, D.C.? He goes, I pay for all of this. This is all mine. Remember when he said that? Here, play this clip. On the roof of the White House, he's taking questions. Or he was just a few moments ago. Let's listen in, please. You're looking good, Peter. Are you going to follow Peter?

17:51What does that mean? What do you mean? There's more ways to spend my money. Can you give us another pay? I will, I will show you. It's just another way to spend my money for the country. What do you mean? Anything I do is finance by me, so you're not worried. It's contributed. Just like my salary is contributed, but nobody ever mentions that.

18:23Ben Meiselas:You know, you also look at these medical reports. I don't want to call them medical reports because you look at the one from April where it says that Donald Trump weighs like 223 pounds. It's like, dude, 224 pounds. You know, the guy is easily 300 plus in my opinion. And then it says, you can see how healthy he is by his frequent victories at golf events. Could you imagine if on a medical report from your doctor, it was like, you know, we can tell that Mr. Mycelos is very healthy as evidenced by the YouTube videos that he does each morning. It's the craziest stuff. What are we even talking about here?

19:02Ben Meiselas:Well, at the Midas Touch Network, we created this video about frontotemporal dementia. Here's what we said here. Play this clip. And my stupid people, when I wanted to refute it, they said, sir, don't dignify it with a refuddle. Have you been noticing peculiar behavior recently in someone you know? Terry Knight, Barry. Someone who mixes fiction and reality? The late great Hannibal Lecter is a wonderful man. Perhaps someone of advanced age you have known for years. Did you just see Maduro? Venezuela, although it's an unbelievable Venezuelan... Of course, we all have our goofs. But consistently odd behavior can be a sign of frontotemporal dementia, a degenerative disease of the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain that dramatically impairs cognitive function.

19:57And there are some key signs to look out for, like slurring words. The failing New York Times by an anonymous, really an anonymous. Struggling to find the correct words is another sign. The Mueller report, I wish covered the oranges, the oranges, the oranges of the investigation. You may also notice someone veering into incoherent ideas detached from reality. You know what I do if there was a shark or you get electrocuted? I'll take electrocution every single time. I'm not getting near the shore. Or an inability to complete simple sentences. Saudi Arabia and Russia will be due. Other notable symptoms include impaired motor function, such as a wavering limb and decreased balance, often accompanied by a signature lean or arched stance.

20:54If someone you know is demonstrating several or all of these symptoms, they are seriously unwell. As a matter of safety, they must be relieved of critical responsibilities and disqualified from any position of authority. Remember, frontotemporal dementia is a degenerative disease. Cognitive function will never return and will only deteriorate further. Don't ignore the signs.

21:29Ben Meiselas:And then the Lincoln Project got in the game and they said Fred Trump, Donald Trump's dad, who had crippling dementia, also used the weave. Here, play this clip. You know, it's true, Donald. You've always known. You're tired. It's so obvious. Weak. So weak. Sick. In the head. New Atlantic reporting. Trump, I need the kind of generals that Hitler had. Old as fuck. Sleepy. Nap time, grandpa. Crazy. So crazy. Weird. Everyone thinks so. Low energy. Low tea. Inappropriate stories. Arnold Palmer was old man. He took showers with the other pros. They came out of there. They said, oh my God, that's unbelievable.

22:13Off your game. Embarrassing. Confused. Rambling. Lost. Wandering. Scared. Pussy. You're falling apart, Donald. In front of everyone. Doctors say it's dementia. Doctors know. Just like Fred. Daddy's boy. You're losing the race. You can't even see it. And your mind. Do you even know where you are? You won't even remember this ad, Donald. So sad.
