Visit t mobile.com Donald Trump is having an ugly meltdown on Saturday morning as he continues to physically and mentally deteriorate and as his regime continues to collapse. He's on social media making post after post. He's also removing comments from some of his posts on Instagram because people are responding that his conduct is abhorrent and disgusting and so he's too afraid to have those comments public. I'll talk about that in a moment. So here's what he's posting this morning. Kaitlyn Collins of Fake News cnn, always stupid and nasty, asked me why the new ballroom was costing more money than originally thought one year ago. I said because it is going to be double the size and the quality of finishes and interiors has been brought to the highest level. You know that Donald Trump fired the architect on the Golden Ballroom this week after of course ripping down the east wing of the White House. We, we believe that Donald Trump is not paying the contractors as well in connection with this or he's stiffing them, which is a trademark of Donald Trump's. And notice how he calls Caitlin Collins here stupid and nasty. This follows Donald Trump referring to another female reporter from the New York Times as ugly, a female reporter from Bloomberg as piggy and saying Be quiet, piggy. And Donald Trump telling another reporter, female reporter, that she would not be able to pass the cognitive exam that he did. Donald Trump is a complete and total maniac, but he certainly directs a lot of his venom more towards women. And it tells you a lot about Donald Trump as well. And he's been just calling people the R word. I mean, just a horrific human being. He posts the following as well. Trump's affordability crusade beats the streets with tiny truck solution.

Your tiny trucks or your tiny car crusade. No one even knows what the heck you are even talking about here. This is so utterly pathetic. This morning you're talking about tiny cars building your ballroom bigger that it's gonna make the White House just look small and gross. What the heck are you doing?

You know, Donald Trump and FIFA. Because Donald Trump hangs out with the head of FIFA, the soccer or football tournament, depending on where you are in the world. He, like, hangs out with the guy once a week. Guy's very corrupt, in my opinion. And FIFA at a leadership level, very, very corrupt, has all these entanglements. When you delve deeper, it gets really gross. In any event, Donald Trump and the.

For Donald Trump, the FIFA peace prize. And Donald Trump got a medal and.

A trophy for this fake peace prize.

Why is FIFA a soccer tournament, giving out peace prizes? And Donald Trump was the only nominee and he won his own award. And they held a ceremony for him in Washington, D.C. and so California govern Gavin Newsom mocked it and said Newsom.

Was awarded Kohl's inaugural peace prize. It comes with $50 in Kohl's cash.

The most embarrassing things to see. The head of FIFA said.

And Donald Trump was legitimately happy to get a fake peace prize that he created for himself. And it just set aside the Democrat, Republican, independent thing.

Political Commentator
He thinks prices are going up when in fact they are coming substantially down. Oh, did you know that everybody that prices are actually going down? Don't believe your own eyes when you leave your home. Just listen to what Donald Trump, who awards himself fake peace prizes, has to say. Gasoline hit $1.99 a gallon yesterday. Everybody gases $1.99 and is down big since Biden. Other prices are almost all down. Biden caused the affordability crisis. I'm fixing it along with everything else. Much of it, like the border is already fixed. Check out the booker who put the jerk on. Check out the this guy is the most pathetic small human and it is such a disgrace that people put this guy in power.
Political Analyst/Host
One other thing I want to point out here too. This is from the Treasury Department as well. I'm going to point out more things in this one, but I want to point this out.
Political Commentator
US Treasuries. This is what the Treasury Department says. US Treasuries are having their best year since 2020. And the investors who had confidence and faith in Trump's economic policies have been richly rewarded. Never bet against it. What happened in 2020? Covid? So treasury yields were up in 2020 when the economy was horrible, and treasury yields are up now in 2025 when the economy is horrible. I don't know. Let me do a quick Google search and find out that when the treasury yields are high for the 10 year, is that a good reflection of the economy or a bad reflection? Oh wait. It shows inflation is surging. It shows that the cost of borrowing is higher, which means that mortgage rates are up and all of the other things that people need to do to borrow is more expensive. And it reflects a bad economy because people are moving towards safer ways to keep their money and so they move towards Treasuries. This quite this chart right here that the Treasury Department's posting actually reflects a bad economy, which is why yields were up in 2020, folks. It's why we need to make sure that we get Good sources of news, authentic sources of news that tell you the truth and not the propaganda. So lots of people ask me, how do I stay up to date on the news all the time in order to do these podcasts, in order to do this YouTube channel? Well, my go to news source is Ground News. You guys, this is a subscrib.
And every day they pull in thousands of articles from around the world and organize them by story and then show you what the right is reporting, what the center is reporting, and what the left is reporting. It's a game changer because as active, responsible citizens, we must get our news from reliable sources. And Trump's America being informed about the facts and media bias, probably the most important thing we can do. That's why we love Ground News. For every article they also tell you, did a media conglomerate put this news out or was it independent media? And they also list the degree, degree of factuality, which is interesting as I think that there are a lot of new sources from media conglomerates that have lower factuality than independent media. I use the Ground News Vantage subscription and we're gonna give you that Ground News Vantage subscription, 40% off. Go to Ground News MTN to get 40% off the ground News Vantage plan that I use every morning and every afternoon and every night. I especially like their Blind spot feed which highlights stories that are disproportionately, disproportionately covered by one side on the political spectrum. Like this story right here. Ukrainian women embrace combat roles as technology reshapes the battlefield. This is being overwhelmingly covered by the left and the center of the political spectrum, but very little on the right. Why? Cuz they don't want to promote any heroism in Ukraine, in my opinion. So Ground News is subscriber funded by subscribing. You're not only getting a tool we all need today, you're also supporting our work here on this YouTube channel that's G R O U R.
And we pinned the link to purchase your subscription below. One more time, Ground News Mtn and talking about Ukraine, European security, this to me is not getting enough attention. Donald Trump has essentially declared a war against all of Europe and that he wants regime change in Europe. That's the official policy of the United States. And I'm not being hyperbolic. The United States put out its 2025 National Security Strategy and in it, as it relates to Europe, it says that the United States will pursue policies ending the perception and preventing the reality of NATO as a perpetually expanding alliance. The United States will cultivate resistance to Europe's current trajectory within European nations. Just think about it. They're going to attack NATO is what the United States says as a permanent, expanding alliance. And the US Will cultivate resistance to Europe's current trajectory within European nations. In other words, the United States will support parties like the AfD and the Reform Party, which is not actually a reform party, and others who will dismantle the European Union. The policy of the US Is to destroy the European Union as written in the United States policy.
Political Analyst/Host
So I'm not like, you know, giving you.
Political Commentator
I just read for you what official US Policy is right now. And it's coming from people who attack pop stars like Sabrina Carpenter and steal her music. And when she calls them out, they lasted about two days putting up this disgusting video that they put up of migrants being brutalized by ICE using Sabrina Carpenter's music. When Sabrina Carpenter called them out and said, this video is evil and disgusting, do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda, her reply got 138.8 million views. And then the White House deleted the post. Stand on business. If you want to steal music. You can't handle the heat from Sabrina Carpenter. So you think that you can handle the heat from Putin and GGPing, huh? You don't want the smoke? Then don't start the fire. What are you doing? White House. How ridiculous and weak and pathetic is it? Yeah, it's people who give themselves, themselves fake peace awards. Look right here. This was a White House post from its Instagram account. You see Donald Trump and the head of FIFA, Gianni Infantino, who's always in the White House. Comments on this post have been limited. You can't comment on it or look at the comments. You can look at the one where Donald Trump posted the following. This is from the White House account Daddy's home. And it's a photo of Donald Trump as Daddy. The hell is going on here? How weird and gross and creepy. And you have lots of people responding to that one. The comments are still up there. Daddy wears drag makeup and hairspray while he stuffs his diaper sleeping on live tv. Daddy can pronounce Yosemite or sedimentary Daddy Sundowning. Imagine idolizing a president, calling him Daddy. Have a father already. Thanks. I wish I could unsee this creepiest message ever. Put him in a nursing home. This is so weird. And by the way, one of the.

Stop your war crimes. Okay? Just woo, saw and behave like a normal human being. Behave like a normal human being. Let me just show you what former President Biden said at a speech that he gave. I'm going to do a longer video on this, but he gave this speech at the LGBTQ Awards, LGBTQ Rights Forum. Take a look at this. It's such a contrast. He's like, I know there's probably so many young people right now who are watching this and are saying, am I loved? Do people care about me? And he goes, you are loved, and people do care about you. Here, play this. Clint.
Joe Biden
Folks.
Gotten lost in all the noise.
With terms like DEI and being weaponized. And people's basic identity turned into political football right now, in no small part because of the victory all this national. In our national debate, there are young people sitting alone at home as I speak.
Literally behind closed doors.
Scrolling through social media, staring to the ceiling, wondering, literally wondering whether they are. And I've talked to many of these young men and women wondering whether will they ever be loved? Will they ever marry? Will they ever have a family.
Ever truly be accepted for who they are?
So my message to young people is this, just be you. Be who you are.
You are loved. You're heard, and you're increasingly understanding. You belong, you belong, you belong, you belong.
I mean it.
Things are changing.
Drewski
Folks.
Political Analyst/Host
Now contrast that to Donald Trump's speech that he gave last night. Here's what he said, where he said.
Political Commentator
We'Re the hottest country. We're so hot. We're so hot.
Drewski
Play this clip Done with the hottest. I said it this morning. A year ago we were a dead country and now we're the hottest country anywhere in the world. And that's said by every single leader in the world. And I said it this morning, the same thing. And we had a lot of the world's leaders there at FIFA and nobody stood up and objected, nobody smiled, nobody rolled their eyes. We're the hottest country anywhere in the world.
Political Commentator
But on state regime media known as.
Political Analyst/Host
Fox News, you have people like Laura.
Political Commentator
Ingraham saying this is great. This is what we want. He's getting his awards as a board member of the Kennedy Center. This is exactly what I want to see Donald Trump getting fake peace awards here.
Laura Ingraham
Play this clip now as a Kennedy center board member, I was really happy not only to see the President having fun and being celebrated, he was honored actually with the first FIFA Peace Award. And they had this lead up video which was incredibly well produced and even I had forgotten how many wars, how many conflicts Donald Trump has helped end. And I've decided by the way, as a side note, that FIFA's President Giannini Infantino is my new favorite human.

Episode: Trump Gets Crushed on Saturday AM with Terrible News
Date: December 6, 2025
Hosts: Ben, Brett, and Jordy Meiselas
In this episode, the Meiselas brothers dive into a tumultuous Saturday morning for Donald Trump, reacting to his latest online meltdowns, bizarre behavior in office, self-congratulatory (and fake) peace awards, and what the brothers describe as the ongoing collapse of his regime. The episode provides scathing, comedic analysis contrasting Trump’s erratic messaging and boastful posts with broader issues facing American democracy and the global stage under his leadership. They also highlight the dangers of state-controlled media, disinformation, and escalating tensions with Europe.
[00:59] Ben opens by noting Trump’s deteriorating state, both mentally and physically, evidenced by an early-morning spree of angry, rambling posts, including lashing out at media figures (especially women) and aggressively scrubbing negative comments on his Instagram.
"Donald Trump is having an ugly meltdown on Saturday morning as he continues to physically and mentally deteriorate and as his regime continues to collapse."
(Political Analyst/Host, 00:59)
Trump consistently resorts to misogynistic insults when responding to female journalists, including calling reporters 'stupid and nasty,' 'ugly,' and 'piggy'. The brothers call this part of a pattern of behavior.
"Donald Trump is a complete and total maniac, but he certainly directs a lot of his venom more towards women."
(Political Analyst/Host, 01:45)
Trump attempted to shift focus toward his so-called “affordability crusade,” hyping his “tiny truck solution” to transportation costs. The hosts ridicule this as out-of-touch and incoherent.
"Your tiny trucks or your tiny car crusade. No one even knows what the heck you are even talking about here. This is so utterly pathetic."
(Political Analyst/Host, 03:03)
Simultaneously, Trump boasted about constructing a massive new White House ballroom, a symbol of “making the White House look small and gross,” as the brothers frame it.
Trump and the FIFA head (Gianni Infantino) awarded Trump a made-up “FIFA Peace Prize” at a self-hosted ceremony, in which Trump was both sole nominee and winner.
"Donald Trump got a medal and a trophy for this fake peace prize."
(Political Commentator, 04:19)
California Gov. Gavin Newsom mocked this, joking about being awarded the “Kohl’s Inaugural Peace Prize” with $50 of Kohl's Cash, poking fun at the self-congratulatory absurdity.
The hosts lambast Trump’s economic claims: falsely asserting prices are “substantially down,” gasoline is “$1.99 a gallon,” and that he’s “fixing” the economy—even as real economic indicators suggest otherwise.
"Oh, did you know that everybody that prices are actually going down? Don't believe your own eyes when you leave your home."
(Political Commentator, 05:28)
They analyze Trump-era Treasury Department spin, noting that high U.S. Treasury yields indicate a bad economy, not a strong one.
"It's a game changer because as active, responsible citizens, we must get our news from reliable sources. In Trump's America, being informed about the facts and media bias, probably the most important thing we can do."
(Political Commentator, 08:14)
"The policy of the US is to destroy the European Union as written in the United States policy."
(Political Commentator, 10:54)
The hosts ridicule Trump’s White House Instagram posts, notably an image captioned “Daddy’s home,” which sparked a flood of mocking responses.
"Imagine idolizing a president, calling him Daddy. Have a father already. Thanks. I wish I could unsee this creepiest message ever. Put him in a nursing home. This is so weird."
(Political Analyst/Host, 12:44)
They recount Trump's team's use of pop star Sabrina Carpenter's music in an anti-immigrant video, which backfired spectacularly after the artist called it out to her 138 million followers.
Citing inside reports, the brothers allege that White House staff have put up signs throughout the building to orient Trump, referencing “Leqembi” (an Alzheimer’s medication), and conclude he's increasingly erratic.
"They're putting signs across the White House Oval Office, West Wing... so he knows where to go. Anybody say leqembi? Can anybody say leqembi? Google it. Google it."
(Political Analyst/Host/Commentator, 13:02–13:20)
Trump’s fundraising emails are highlighted as increasingly desperate and bizarre (“Join the MAGA Hall of Fame,” “Should I host a meet and greet at Mar-a-Lago or Trump Tower?”).
In stark contrast, the brothers play a clip of former President Biden at an LGBTQ forum, delivering a compassionate and inclusive message to young people:
"So my message to young people is this, just be you. Be who you are. You are loved. You're heard, and you're increasingly understanding. You belong, you belong, you belong, you belong."
(Joe Biden, 15:44)
Trump’s recent public speech, by contrast, is mocked for his focus on being “the hottest country” and for boasting that no world leaders at FIFA objected to his claim.
"We're the hottest country anywhere in the world."
(Donald Trump, 16:51)
"I was really happy not only to see the President having fun and being celebrated, he was honored actually with the first FIFA Peace Award."
(Laura Ingraham, 17:05)
On Trump’s Pattern of Misogyny:
"Notice how he calls Caitlin Collins here stupid and nasty... Referring to another female reporter as ugly, another as piggy... a horrific human being."
(Political Analyst/Host, 01:17–01:50)
On Fake Awards:
"Why is FIFA, a soccer tournament, giving out peace prizes? And Donald Trump was the only nominee and he won his own award."
(Political Analyst/Host, 04:21)
On the White House “Daddy’s home” Post:
"Comments on this post have been limited... Have a father already. Thanks. I wish I could unsee this.. creepiest message ever. Put him in a nursing home. This is so weird."
(Political Analyst/Host, 12:44)
On Contrasting Biden’s Tone:
"You are loved. You're heard... you belong, you belong, you belong."
(Joe Biden, 15:52–16:03)
On Signs of Trump’s Decline:
"They're putting signs across the White House... so he knows where to go. Anybody say leqembi?"
(Political Analyst/Host/Commentator, 13:02–13:20)
This episode of The MeidasTouch Podcast delivers a hard-hitting, humor-tinged assessment of Donald Trump’s public unraveling and the surrounding culture of misinformation and propaganda cloaking his administration. The Meiselas brothers use sharp political analysis and vivid contrasts—especially with Biden’s compassionate messaging—to highlight the stakes for American democracy and global stability as the 2024–25 political drama unfolds.
