Transcript of Trump’s Health Deteriorates Fast as Presidency Collapses
The MeidasTouch PodcastAfter the election wipe out 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. They said, No, 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 out, No, you did that in April. Then you had Roni Jackson, Donald Trump's former Dr. The Candy Man, they call him, a Congress member from Texas.
He was like, It's the chronic venous insufficiency testing that they're 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? Is 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 Levet was asked yesterday during a press conference that she held, 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 result. Trump said, It was a perfect MRI, the most perfect MRI ever. So members of the press then asked Donald Trump's doctor, Roger. The doctor who was listed on the report. They said, Hey, Sean Barabella, you're a DO. That's what you are. Okay, DO, Barabella, tell us, what was the advanced imaging?
We'd like to see the report. The Trump doctor went silent, refused to get back to the press. So Caroline Levet was asked. Watch this. Here, play this clip.
Why did President Trump get an MRI during his recent visit to the street?
Look, as President Trump said, he would inquire with the physicians, I'll check back on that. But as the physical itself stated, Kristen, and as you all know, because you all witnessed 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 routine checkup.
In addition, President Trump has said that he wants to be transparent.
He has told us to 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.
And that's their new move by Caroline Love. It's not the new move. But you know how Donald Trump has his way of just avoiding the questions The way Caroline Levin, just putting it lightly, Caroline Leved 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 Leved, what, thinks we're stupid? It 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. Now, you remember when Donald Trump was in Japan and he was wandering around, and the Prime Minister, Takeishi, had to 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. I think now, as a result of the election wipeout that just took place, people are asking, Does this guy have dementia?
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. I'm not trying to conjure sympathy, but I think the question is, 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 Reid, he says it was the perfect MRI. Play this clip.
Walter Reid mentioned advanced medical imaging. Did you get an MRI? Can you tell us what that was? I did. I got an MRI. It was perfect. I gave you the full results. We had an MRI in the machine, the whole thing, and it was perfect. Can you say one in particular? You could ask the doctors. In fact, we have doctors traveling with us, but I think I gave you a very conclusive. Nobody has ever given you reports like I gave you. And if I didn't think it was going to 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.
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 Crocket, 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 in. I took... That was a very hard... They're really aptitude tests, I guess, in a certain way, but they're cognitive US. Let AOC go against Trump. Let Jasmine go against Trump. I don't think Jasmine... The first couple of questions are easy, a tiger, an elephant, a giraffe. 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.
What also happened on October 27th, because I just want to show you a contrast, all the MAGA Republicans are like, Biden had dementia. Biden had auto Autopen this, autopen 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 pardon. He Are you ready for this? 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 in 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 furie, but of decency and grace, that our institutions are what makes us envy the world, and our democracy is worth fighting like hell for.
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. I 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 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. And again, the rules do not apply to him. It's the rule of dawn, and we have to, I think, be mindful of that.

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 proving ground for war, or that indeed there's some internal war going on in the United States. Is just frankly inane, 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 US citizens, when they are, just because they oppose the President of the United States.
There is something genuinely wrong with this man, and the 25th Amendment ought to be invoked. Then when I interviewed Ruben Gallego, he said the same thing. He's Trump's got dementia. He goes, I'm pretty confident this guy's got dementia. Play this clip. I spoke with Leader Jeffrey's. I spoke with Leader Schumer. They both did interviews here. They go, We don't know what he's talking. They're doing no... They're not even here. What in the world are they talking? I mean, that in and of itself should be a major three alarm. Yeah.
I mean, even when Donald Trump is in DC, he's not really mentally in DC. So we don't know who to negotiate with. And fact is, we're getting closer to November first. Open enrollment happens then. Donald Trump He's never dealt with insurance personally. He's never bought insurance. He's never had to go and figure out what insurance rates really are. He's always had someone doing that from. And you have Speaker Johnson and Leader Thun that know that. So they know how to manipulate this man. They have a goal. They want to destroy the ACA. Russ Vot 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 of that. 24 million Americans are going to see their rate increase doubled. In Arizona, a family of four is going to see their premiums increased 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 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 for 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.
Now, the excuse that the White House gives was chronic Venus insufficiency. You'll recall that Caroline Levit 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. 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. The 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-diameter tumor, 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. No 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. The President wanted me to share that note with all of you. I'm happy to take further questions on it.
But let's also remember the facts. 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, DC? 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. Where are you going to go? Over here. What does that mean? What do you use? It's the more way to spend my money. Can you give us another raise? I will. That will It's just another way to spend my money for the country. Anything I do is financed by paying something, not the way it's contributed. Just like my salary is contributed, but nobody ever mentioned.
You also look at these medical reports. I don't even 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. 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, We can tell that Mr. Meiselas 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? 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 refutile.
Have you been noticing peculiar behavior recently in someone you know? Terry Knight, Paris. Someone who mixes fiction in reality?
The late great Hannibal Lector. He's a wonderful man.
Perhaps someone of advanced age you have known for years.
Did you just see Maduro, Venezuela? It's an unbelievable Venezuelian.
Of course, we all have our goops. 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 for, like slurring words.
The Failing New York Times by 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 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.
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 general as a Hitler had.
Old as fuck. Sleepy.
Nap time, grandpa. Crazy. So crazy.
We Everyone thinks so. Low energy. Low team. Inappropriate stories. Arnold Palmer was an old man. He took showers with the other pros. They came out of there, they said, Oh, my God, that's unbelievable. Off your game. Embarrassing.
Confused. Rambling.
Lost.
Wondering.
Scared. You see. 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 I see it. And your mind. Do you even know where you are? You won't even remember this ad, Donald. So sad.
