Donald Trump's 1am meltdown after being forced to sign into law a bill to release the Epstein files. It was a sight to behold. So at 1am he was ranting and raving at comedian Jimmy Kimmel for mocking and making fun of him. Donald Trump goes why does ABC fake news keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with no talent and very poor television ratings, on the air? Why do the TV syndicates put up with it all? Also, totally biased coverage. Get the bum off the air, exclamation point. Also, late at night, Donald Trump was posting, according to most, one of the best opening 10 months for the president in USA history. So then why do you have the lowest approval rating ever, according to Fox? I could cite for you Reuters and Ipsos and AP and YouGov, where you also have the lowest polling in the history of modern presidents. But let's just talk about the Fox poll where you got absolutely wiped out. Here's how they described it on Fox. Let's play this clip.
Poll Analyst
But the issue of affordability, the issue of how people feel about the economy popping up in our latest polls. Personal financial situation now excellent, good 40%. Only fair or poor 60%. You can see that changing from July condition of the US economy also a perception totally upside down, 76 to 25 and that changing a bit. And then economic conditions for the nation. And you personally, again, 25% positive, 76 negative for the nation. And then 60, 40.

Personally, you want to talk about the best 10 months, seriously, why don't we just look at the prices of items going into Thanksgiving. Coffee up 15.3% year over year. Let's be clear what this is more than last year, year over year. Ground beef up 14.2% beef steaks up 10.1% bananas up 7.4.9% lettuce 5.9% frozen juice and drinks 4.4%. Lunch meats up 4.2%. How about the cost of turkey for Thanksgiving? Wholesale prices have jumped. Get this 40% year over year. A 40% year over year increase in wholesale prices. So turkey, typically the centerpiece of the Thanksgiving meal, will be one of the biggest sticker shocks. And Donald, you can say, oh, it's going to be so much cheaper. Turkey is so affordable right now we know that's not the case. You were just an absolute liar. And while the American people are suffering, you held a convention with The Saudis and your billionaire friends yesterday. And you were praising the pandemic and you were saying, when America became the king of ventilators, it was an amazing time and everything was great. When we were the king of ventilators. The hell is he talking about? Here, play this clip.
Donald Trump (Impersonation or Clip)
But we did great. And then we started doing the gowns and the masks and the goggles and the ventilators. We were sending ventilators all over the world. We became the king of ventilators. But what a period of time that was for all of us. But despite that, we had the greatest economy in the history of our. We had the greatest economy in the history of the world.

More posts, right? Donald Trump late at night, photographs of the Saudi royal family and his billionaire buddies. That's exactly what we want to see, Donald. As Americans are quite literally starving to death, as the food bank lines are bigger than ever, as America's essentially having a stealth Great Depression right now that's being artificially inflated by artificial intelligence, by this AI bubble, which, by the way, seems to be crashing right now. Americans are psychologically tortured, living paycheck to paycheck right now. They can't afford their rent, highest credit card delinquencies essentially ever. Jobless claims higher than at any point since the Great Recession. And Covid, which, by the way, I guess you say that was a great period. You were the king of ventilators. You're posting photos with Elon Musk and the head of Nvidia and all of your billionaire friends. Ugh. How disgusting. How reprehensible. Speaking of disgusting and reprehensible, NBC got a incredible exclusive yesterday, and it's what we suspected to be true. A lawyer at U.S. southern Command, the top lawyer which oversees the strikes against alleged drug smuggling boats near Venezuela, disagreed with the Trump regime's position that the operations are lawful and was overruled, according to six sources. So to be clear, the top lawyer from U.S. southern Command was overruled by Trump's Department of Justice, according to this article, the main military lawyer overruled by Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche and people like that, people like that at the doj. Because the top military lawyer said that these strikes on these boats off the coast of Venezuela and Colombia and the Pacific likely constitute extrajudicial killings and our war crimes. What have I been calling it since day one? War crimes. Over 82 people have been killed. So I call Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, who used to be a Fox News Weekend host, and I put news in quotes. War criminal Anybody in that chain of command, war criminals. And that is also why a lot of Democratic leaders who had backgrounds in the military, like Senator Kelly, who was a fighter pilot, flew missions, was shot at sunk ships in the Persian Gulf, in the Iraq war, that's in the Persian Gulf War. Senator Kelly has been telling the troops, you can't follow unlawful orders because you can be brought up in the war crime tribunals as well. There will be a future without Donald Trump. And that future seems closer and closer as Trump gets more unpopular every single day and war crimes will be prosecuted, people will be held accountable. That's the future. And these people who are involved in this war, criminals who will be tried on war tribunals in the future, that's what will happen. And I think any person running from the, from the Democratic Party needs to be clear that these people go in front of war crime tribunals. Where else would you put them? While all of this was going on as well, the Trump family lost like 5 billion of its paper wealth from Trump Media recently. So Donald Trump's media company, Trump Media, which is the parent company of Truth Social, I know there's a lot of news to follow. Trump's cover up of the Epstein files. Trump prosecutor Lindsey Halligan from the Eastern District of Virginia, never actually presenting the grand jury indictment to the grand jury in the Comey case, the only indictment they ever presented, they rejected the first time. And then she just had the four person sign a second indictment, which became the operative indictment that the grand jury never even saw. And the judge smoked it out yesterday and uncovered it. But I digress. Why I'm bringing that up is I know it's like, do I focus on this? Do I focus on that? Trump's meeting with the Saudis, he's giving them F35 fighter jet technology and planes and nuclear technology, which will likely end up in China, while his personal businesses get 63, while his real estate companies are participating. He'll probably find a way to blow it too, because he's so frickin incompetent participating in $63 billion worth of real estate transactions in the Middle East. I'm not sure how much piece of that pie is in Trump properties in the Maldives with the Saudis, Jared Kushner with the Saudis buying Electronic Arts. Where do I focus? But with all that going on, let's focus on Trump Media. Donald Trump's company. Like this is his. Your company, Trump Media, it has your name on it. In the past year, it's decreased close to 70%. It's now trading at $10.29. It started as a SPAC, a special purpose acquisition company. And that's a blank check company that goes and purchases the company, in this case Trump Media. When a SPAC starts, it starts at $10 a share. So it's basically at zero, essentially because SPACs start at $10. So it's basically bottomed out. It's crashing. And I just want you to think about that. Why does this guy bankrupt all of his companies? Or why are all of his companies unsuccessful? Casino after casino, bankrupt, bankrupt, bankrupt, bankrupt, this company, that company. He's a failure. He cannot run things. And that shouldn't be, oh well, Democrat, Republican, this just look how poorly they've run Trump Media into the ground. And he's the presidency. He's got the Saudis and the Qataris and the Emiratis and, and he still can't freaking run this thing to make money. And the stock's crashing. Think about our country. We're just America is Trump Media at this point. And then you're seeing all of these AI deals that seem to be just like the fake Trump deals where, oh, 2 trillion, 10 trillion, 18, 23 bazillion ba gillion dollars, right? They just make announcements like, look at this. Nvidia says there was no assurance of a final agreement with OpenAI despite $100 billion PACs. So they make these announcements, the stock surge and then they go, well, well, well. There's no assurance it was a pact, an agreement to potentially agree in the future. Stop treating us like we're fricking stupid here. And so while Fox is out there reporting how Trump's poll numbers, his approvals absolutely crashing when Trump was in front of the Saudis, he's like my pollster said, sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead, you'd be so much more popular than them. Here, play this clip.
Donald Trump (Impersonation or Clip)
But I met with two pollsters because we were starting to think about the next election. They said, sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead and they aligned and they went for the president, vice president, as a combination, you'd be beating them by 25 points. And then the next day I was told that something strange is happening.

Here's another clip, by the way, from Fox that talks about how they're like, in Donald Trump, despite all of the peace deals that he's doing, the American people just don't seem to think that they're safer Here. Play this clip. Now, peacemaking is a major source of pride for the president. But according to the latest Fox News poll, Americans are split on whether his peace deals will make the world safer. Yeah, it's because he's not doing peace deals. He's making him up. He's just saying, oh, I stopped the war in Congo. I stopped the war in this area. And it's like, no, you do what you just make your make. I stopped the war between Thailand and Cambodia, and then it started again and stopped. And I take credit for everything. He promised he would end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. The war has not ended in 24 hours. In fact, in the past 24 hours, 25 innocent Ukrainians were killed, including three children. At the same time, the Trump regime has been secretly negotiating with a guy named Dmitriev. The Russian sovereign wealth fund leader, special envoy to the US and the Trump regime refused to send Steve Witkoff. They didn't show up in Istanbul. I'm going to do a whole other video about that in 90 minutes where the US didn't show up to Istanbul. Zelenskyy was there all by himself with the leader of. With Erdogan, the leader of Turkey, while the Trump regime was about, was going to try to force Zelenskyy into a total surrender after the US Planned this with Kirill Dmitriev, and they were going to go to Istanbul and tell Zelenskyy, you better surrender Zelenskyy. And the Europeans found out and they were ready with their counter plan. And Trump and Trump was like, witkoff, you gotta get back, because Ukraine smoked out what Trump was doing. By the way, this is where Trump says that the price of Turkey is down 33% and all Thanksgiving is going to be cheaper. We know that's false. Play this clip.
Donald Trump (Impersonation or Clip)
I believe within a year or two years after the election, we were headed in a very bad direction, and now we're headed in the best direction I think that we've ever been headed. According to the USDA, Turkey is down. Think of that, 33%. And I'm not talking about the country of Turkey. He's doing fine. Erdogan is doing good. Just want to, you know, I don't want him calling me. I'm not down 33%. He's a friend of ours. We got to take care of our friends.

And then Trump, in this speech to the Saudis, talks about how he'd love to fire the Fed chair. Here, play this clip.
Donald Trump (Impersonation or Clip)
And eggs are way down now. Mortgage rates are down despite the Fed. I mean, Scott, you got to work in this guy. He's got some real mental problems. No, he's. Something wrong with him. It's just sweet. I'll be honest. I'd love to fire his ass. He should be fine. Guy's grossly incompetent and he should be sued for spending $4 billion to build a little building. I'm building a ballroom. That's going to cost a tiny fraction of that, and it's bigger than the whole thing put together. You got to work on him, Scott. The only thing Scott's blowing it on is the Fed. Because the Fed. The rates are too high, Scott. And if you don't get it fixed fast, I'm going to fire your ass. Okay.

Date: November 20, 2025
Hosts: Ben, Brett, and Jordy Meiselas
In this episode, the Meiselas brothers dive into former President Donald Trump's latest late-night social media meltdown, the sharp decline of his approval ratings, his ongoing political and personal scandals, and his administration's controversial conduct, including alleged war crimes. With their characteristic blend of humor, outrage, and sharp political analysis, the brothers discuss Trump’s struggles as his presidency falters under historic unpopularity, crumbling business ventures, and mounting legal issues.
[03:36] Fox News Clip:
Quote (Ben?):
“You were just an absolute liar. And while the American people are suffering, you held a convention with the Saudis and your billionaire friends yesterday.”
Trump’s relationships with foreign governments (e.g., Saudis, Qataris, Emiratis) amid questionable real estate deals and sensitive technology transfers.
Fake “peace deal” announcements lampooned:
The podcast expertly blends biting satire, factual breakdowns, and unapologetic pro-democracy advocacy. The hosts' banter keeps the tone lively, engaging, and sometimes sharply sarcastic, particularly when highlighting Trump’s exaggerations or policy failures.
This episode delivers a robust soundtrack of Trump’s political and personal unraveling as he rails against media enemies, faces declining approval, and struggles to manage his business empire and international image. Coupled with the brothers’ signature mix of comedy and civic concern, it provides both entertainment and a pointed critique of American politics as 2025 draws to a dramatic close.
