Bingo savings all season? The holiday road is long. We're with you all the way. Walgreens offer valid Novemb 26th through December 27th. Exclusions apply. It's not looking good, Donald. Donald Trump's health appears to just be in rapid deterioration. Look at Donald Trump at the event he was at yesterday with the Saudi royal family and these oligarchs. Zoom in on Donald Trump's hand right there. His hand is basically being eaten by what looks like this kind of flesh eating thing. I know they say it's chronic venous insufficiency, but what, whatever it is, it's spreading. I mean, you remember the earlier photos of his hand and then they were trying to patch over it with makeup. Now his whole hand again, as I've said before, it almost looks like it was put in a piranha tank. I mean, it looks really rough. We know that Donald Trump's been unable to walk in straight lines. When he rolled out the red carpet for Putin, he was zigzagging. When he was in Japan with the new prime minister, Takeshi, she had a walk with him because he couldn't walk straight. We've seen the photos of Donald Trump with those, like, balloon ankles of his. They look like basketballs. And again, they say chronic venous insufficiency, maybe stage six or seven, because it looks really, really bad. And some of the other things we've been seeing too, over the past, well, he's always been doing it, but it's, it's getting worse. And it's called disinhibition, which is a sign and symptom of dementia. And again, I want to be clear, I don't officially know what's going on, you know, there with his health, but I, speaking with a lot of medical professionals and I've gathered a lot of insight and it's mere speculation, but I'm just simply saying that one of the things that accompanies dementia often is disinhibition, where someone will just blurt out and say things, you know, like, be quiet, piggy. Be quiet, piggy. Right? That's something that you would see. Or like when Donald Trump. Horrible. When Donald Trump was at that event yesterday with the Saudis, he just started screaming. He goes, they started screaming at me. Eggs, eggs, eggs, eggs, eggs. Eg. Here, just play this clip. I mean, this was a really demented speech. And he just kept on screaming, eggs, eggs, eggs. And I know our corporate news isn't going to cover it, but just, just watch here what he did. Here, play this clip.
D
They started screaming at me.
B
Eggs, eggs. So that's called disinhibition, where you just blurt it out, Blurt it out. Eggs, eggs. And just to remind you, you saw that when he looked at the female reporter and he's like, be quiet, piggy. And we know that Donald Trump himself, he's the real pig. I mean, we know he's disgusting, right? I mean, Trump is someone who's been found liable for sexual assault. We know he's called people Piggy before, who are in his beauty pageants or whatever. We know he walks in on the people and the beauty pageants, the girls, and he likes to inspect them naked without their consent. He brags about sexually assaulting women because he's rich. He says he gets away with it, He's a criminal, he's a fraud. Like, we know all of these things. So I not trying to let him off the hook by just saying disinhibition and talking about potential dementia, but I'm just simply saying, also, when you see someone, the way he said, quiet, Piggy, I mean, that's classic disinhibition of what a doctor would tell you. Again, I don't know for a fact, but here, watch this. And just. Here's a medical professional, just so you see, from Dementia Support Australia. Just talking about it. Here, play this clip. There are a number of reasons why disinhibition can occur. The frontal lobe of the brain is our social filter. And if that is affected by the dementia, as it often is, then you lose that filter and you lose that.
A
Ability to know what is a normal social behaviour.
B
Now, one of the ways we've seen this disorder, inhibition, if you will, manifest. So when people go in the Oval Office, he sprays you with perfume and cologne and then he starts to sniff you. He sniffs you, he sprays you. Let me smell you, let me smell you. And then he sniffs you like he's a dog. And so we saw him do it with the leader of Syria, but it's not unique there. And Caroline Levitt, Donald Trump's chief propagandist, says this is what he does with world leaders all the time. He has cologne and perfume and he sprays you with it and then he starts sniffing you. And. Come on, I mean, I'm trying to be serious here. I mean, this is a serious subject matter. So world leaders show up in the Oval Office, he starts yelling at the reporters, piggy, piggy, piggy, you piggy. And then he comes here and let me sniff you. And he starts spraying cologne on you and smelling you in this bizarre golden bordella in the Oval Office. It's a grotesque scene, but that happens every day in the White House right now. And then he's destroyed the east wing of the White House and bulldozed it down. Just here's Trump's own press secretary propaganda saying it. Play this clip. The President went. The Syrian president came in and President Trump sprayed perfume all over him. And I just wondered, like, did he smell?
C
No.
A
Let me tell you.
E
That happens all the time.
B
Not just with the Syrian president, but I've seen it with other foreign leaders. I've seen it with members of our cabinet myself. He sprays a cologne and a perfume. Yes. He's just showing off his wonderful sense.
A
He's very generous.
B
I mean, she also said a bunch of other crazy stuff too during this interview. Like where she said, Epstein files classic DC hoax. She says, here, play this clip.
A
But if you look at how this.
E
Epstein story sort of evolved over the.
B
Past week, it's classic Washington hoax. Yes.

You know how every holiday season you're trying to find that one gift people will actually use? That's where True Classic has become my go to. These guys started with a super simple idea. Make premium crazy comfortable clothes that don't cost designer prices. And clearly they've nailed it. They've sold something like 25 million shirts, 5 million customers, hundreds of thousands of five star reviews. People swear by this stuff. And honestly, I get why the fit is just different. The first time I threw one on, I was like, oh, so this is what a shirt's supposed to feel like. It's tailored where it should be relaxed where you want it. The fabric is soft. Nothing bunches or feels stiff. It makes you look put together without even trying. That's the whole vibe. And now they've expanded so you're not just shopping for guys anymore. They've got women's stuff, kids stuff. It's basically the easiest holiday gifting hack ever. One brand, everyone's covered and you're not blowing your budget to do it. So if you want a gift that's actually going to get worn, like not shoved in a drawer and forgotten, go with True Classic. Give comfort, give confidence. Give something people will actually love. You can grab their stuff at Amazon, Target, Costco, Sam's Club, or just make it easy and go to true classic trueclassic.com Midas to get that perfect gift for everyone on your list. That's trueclassic.com Midas M E I D.
B
A S. But then just going back to this inhibition concept. Here he is in the Oval Office and just like I've tried to figure out how best to say it and try to carefully word it, but remember when Trump was with Epstein in the 90s and he would like the way he got like excited when he would see the girls or the women and he was on video and he makes the weird faces and the just makes me puke in my mouth thinking about it. But it was very much like that when the crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, MBS was there and I mean Trump was just getting all weird with him. It looked like a bizarre flirtation ritual. I don't know, I just made the faces and like he looked, he looked almost sexually attracted to the crown prince. And I'm not trying, again, I'm not trying to be. Oh, you just saying these things and I mean, I don't know how, I know how to describe, maybe not, maybe sexually is not the right word. Like, I think he was attracted by the idea of like a royal family and that like turned him on. I don't, I don't know how to describe it, but it was very. You tell me what you're seeing right here. Here, play this clip. Son of the league, Mr. PR. And again, it's not normal. Nothing to see here. But here, play this clip.
E
Turn I believe Mr. President.
B
Now the Daily Beast is reporting how top doctors are calling BS on Trump's bizarre claims about his secret mri. And that actually comes from the interview that I did with Dr. Gupta where we talk about what went down and the cognitive issues. Is it potentially mini strokes, Is it dementia? Is it, what are they testing for with this MRIs. But when we see the disinhibition before our eyes, when we see the signs and symptoms and the inability to walk straight, I mean, what do we think this MRI was about? What do we think? And again, I don't, I need to be careful because I don't want to let him off the hook for the cruelty and the behavior and what a disgusting individual he is by saying, oh well, he's just mentally ill and cognitive, you know, so I want to be very careful. But I think we're seeing these things manifest and I think that's another cover up like the Epstein cover up. There's so many cover up, war crime cover ups and Trump health cover up. Just play this clip of what Dr. Gupta told me. Here, play this clip.
C
When I think about the president from say 2015, 2016, his first campaign, vigorous, looked different, looked younger, clearly has aged significantly, been in the last eight to 10 years. There's a noticeable change and first and foremost he's old and he's showing signs of older age and advanced and I'd say accelerated aging because is the most stressful job in the world. There's a good reason for it. But he's now held it twice. He had a pretty controversial four years when he was out of office. So he's dealt with a lot of stress, self created in some cases or because of his job but he has clearly declined awake fullness. He slept through part of the last HHS secretary's announcement on weight loss drugs. It was pretty noticeable. He seemed sort of altered and not really interested in helping out. When that person collapsed, he was sort of dissociated from that entire sort of melee there. So he does feel like he's, it seems like he's less alert at times. Again, older age, demanding job, just taking its toll. Chronic venous insufficiency is something that impacts people, especially as they get older. So that's a physical manifestation of older age. His decreased wakefulness, also a manifestation of that. And then. Yeah, I mean, again now entering the purview of speculation. I don't have his medical records here. I've been examined. It's all the usual cough, cough, qualifications. But all to say there's a reason why somebody like him might be getting semi regular MRIs, one of which is to look for evidence of cognitive dysfunction. Is there something happening in the brain? Is the vasculature in the brain not giving enough blood to the brain? Who knows? Did he have stroke burden? Who knows. I mean I've seen, you know, the same videos you've seen Ben, of his just functional status looking at times pretty unstable. And so would it make sense? Again, we talked about primary screening tools and MRIs. Not an appropriate thing to do. Even if you're the leader of the free world, you need to have a reason. Could I see his doctor say hey, you know, we're worried about his neurologic status or they're seeing something that they're not coming clear on with the public, then prompting MRIs at some, at every so often cadence. Yeah, that would make sense. That would actually be entirely appropriate to do. And that's a secondary diagnostic, secondary screening tool. There's early detection of something that would make sense that he is high risk for something. Or they already know he has a condition, maybe a neurological issue and they're monitoring it. That would make complete sense.
B
So I'll let you be the judge for yourself and you know, I'll just, I'll just say this. We put this video together at the Midas Touch network. I've showed it before, but I have to show it again now. Tying this all together about dementia and about the symptoms. And so you tell me, here, play this clip.
D
And my stupid people, when I wanted to refute it, they said, sir, don't dignify it with a refudal. Have you been noticing peculiar behavior, Behavior recently in someone, you know, carried out by red. Someone who mixes fiction and reality. The late, great Hannibal Lecter. He's a wonderful man. Perhaps someone of advanced age you have known for years. Did you just see Maduro, Venezuela? Although it's 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. And there are some key signs to look out for, like slurring words. The Failing New York Times by Anonymous really? 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'd do if there was a shark? Or you get electrocuted? I'll take electrocution every single time I'm not getting near the shark. Or an inability to complete simple sentences. Saudi Arabia and Russia will repeat. Other notable symptoms include impaired motor function, such as a wavering limb and decreased balance, often accompanied by a signature lean or arched stance. If 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.

In this episode, the Meiselas brothers scrutinize Donald Trump’s rapidly declining health, highlighting physical and cognitive symptoms that are increasingly visible in public appearances. Integrating firsthand observations, medical commentary, and signature witty banter, they examine evidence suggesting Trump’s condition may go beyond publicly stated ailments, explore the possibility of dementia, and criticize both the media’s lack of coverage and ongoing attempts at secrecy by Trump’s team. Throughout, the brothers reinforce their unapologetic pro-democracy stance while using a combination of humor and concern to bring attention to the issue.

The brothers maintain their trademark mix of comedic banter, sharp legal insight, and unapologetic critique of Trump, using both humor and genuine concern to underscore the seriousness of the observed decline. They carefully balance speculation with expert commentary and avoid excusing Trump’s actions as purely medical, instead emphasizing both accountability and the need for transparency regarding a leader's health.
