Trump’s Health Crashes in Front Of World on Prime Time TV!!!!
4/2/202621 mincomplete
0:00My name is Mackenzie, and I started a GoFundMe for the adoptive mother of a
0:05nonverbal autistic child. The mother had lost her job because she wasn't able to find
0:12adequate care for this autistic child.
0:14So she really needed some help with living expenses, paying some back bills.
0:20So I launched a GoFundMe to help support them during this crisis.
0:24And we raised about $10 ,000 within just a couple of months.
0:32I think that the surprising thing was by telling a clear story and just like
0:37really being very clear about what we needed.
0:40We had some really generous donations from people who were really moved by the situation
0:44that this family was struggling with.

3:04Donald Trump's physical and mental deterioration that we've been covering here at the Midas Dutch
3:09Network was on full display to the entire world on prime time as Donald Trump
3:15gave that disastrous address to the nation.
3:18Sometimes we forget that while we have a very big audience here, the biggest audience
3:24in the Midas Touch Network on YouTube and covering the news, there are some people
3:28who just don't watch the news, and they may be watching their prime time shows.
3:33And Donald Trump interrupted their prime time shows to give this national address where it
3:38basically seems that the United States and Israel are going to continue to escalate the
3:43unlawful war in Iran, or there's no sign of de -escalation.
3:47But I think Americans got to see the very slurry, lethargic, the very kind of
3:54slow, deteriorating Donald Trump that we've been talking about.
3:59I know they've been a lot of friends of mine who don't even watch lots
4:03of political news. They're like, hey, did you see that?
4:05I mean, this guy is like cognitively declining.
4:08This guy is like rotting before our eyes.
4:10Like, what in the world?
4:10I said, I know we've been covering it here on the Midas Touch Network, and
4:14I've been seeing lots of people calling for the 25th Amendment to be invoked immediately.
4:19People are like, something's got to be done.
4:22That's the guy right now who's making these calls, who are putting our troops in
4:26harm's way, who's destroying our alliances.
4:30I mean, by the way, even people like Alex Jones, okay?
4:33You don't get much more kind of right -wing extremists than Alex Jones.
4:38He's out there now saying Donald Trump's got some major issues.
4:42Here's what Alex Jones said.
4:43Let's play this clip. Ankles swell up three times the size they were before.
4:47That means heart failure. And he does look sick.
4:51And he does babble and, you know, sound like the brain's not doing too hot.
5:00And so we just cut bait on Trump, and we just mobilize against the Democrats.
5:06I mean, that guy was a Trumper.
5:08I mean, you don't get much more Trumper than that guy right there.
5:11I mean - The day began yesterday with Donald Trump talking about the speech he
5:16was going to give. And he's like, I'm going to give a little speech.
5:19And it's about how great I am.
5:21Here, play this clip. And tonight I'm making a little speech at nine o 'clock.
5:26And basically, I'm going to I'm going to tell everybody how great I am.
5:30What a great job. What a phenomenal job.
5:34What a phenomenal job I've done.
5:36But seriously, if you if you didn't have me, if you had some different type
5:39of a president. That I mean, it's very strange behavior.
5:44And the people, they're laughing and encouraging that behavior.
5:47It's not good at all.
5:48So then he gives the speech and I'm not going to do the whole speech
5:50again. I'm just going to pick out small portions like when Donald Trump was like,
5:54we've got the cards, Iran.
5:56We've got the cards. What cards do you have?
5:58They control the Strait of Hormuz.
6:00Here, play this clip. We have all the cards.
6:02They have none. It's very important that we keep this conflict in perspective.
6:07And then the way he described the war was blowing up Iran, the country to
6:12the Stone Ages, their electrical grids, their infrastructure.
6:16It's not saying the regime.
6:18He's saying we're going to blow up the country to the Stone Ages.
6:21As I've said, he sounds like like like the cartoon car, the corny bad guy
6:27cartoon characters I grew up with.
6:29Here, play this clip. We're going to hit them extremely hard over the next two
6:33to three weeks. We're going to bring them back to the Stone Ages where they
6:38belong. I'm not going to show you much more of the speech, but earlier in
6:42the day, this is where Donald Trump was then kind of saying, we can't take
6:46care of daycare. We're a big country, big country.
6:51We're fighting wars. So we can't do daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, and all of these things.
6:58What do you think you think the purpose of this, of what you're doing is
7:03to take billions of dollars to drop bombs and kill little girls in elementary school?
7:07Is that what you think your job is?
7:08Here, play this clip. Because the United States can't take care of daycare.
7:13That has to be up to a state.
7:15We can't take care of daycare.
7:17We're a big country. We have 50 states.
7:19We have all these other people.
7:20We're fighting wars. We can't take care of daycare.
7:24You got to let a state take care of daycare, and they should pay for
7:27it, too. They should pay.
7:29They have to raise their taxes, but they should pay for it.
7:32And we could lower our taxes a little bit to them to make up.
7:35But it's not possible for us to take care of daycare.
7:39Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things, they can do it on a state basis.
7:44You can't do it on a federal.
7:45We have to take care of one thing, military protection.
7:49We got to do the military.
7:52And then he doesn't finish his sentences.
7:54I want to bring in Dr.
7:55Vin Gupta, who leads Midas Health.
7:58Dr. Gupta, it's great to see.
8:00I mean, look, you and I have been covering this for a very long time,
8:04Trump's physical cognitive deterioration, by just observing his and sharing opinions.
8:09I mean, you're sharing your opinions as well.
8:12The world, you know, we forget sometimes that other portions of the country don't necessarily
8:18see all of this, although we have a very big audience.
8:20And now lots of people are saying, whoa, I saw that speech.
8:24What did you make of the clips I shared and the speech in general, Dr.
8:28Gupta? Yeah, Ben, you know, there was this sort of just building on our conversations
8:33over the last year. You know, I thought today really brought into stark relief some
8:36of these topics we've been talking about.
8:38Again, no physical exam. We're taking the optics of what we're seeing, what we're hearing,
8:44and we're asking some questions, but one, you know, some common takeaways, this, the juxtaposition
8:50of the, we're almost done theme with more strikes are coming.
8:56That's confused, almost incoherent thought processes, not linear thinking, not consistent thinking.
9:04He's drifting in his words structure.
9:07He doesn't, he isn't completing sentences, as you pointed out.
9:09Um, there is sort of erratic decision -making, uh, you know, I have my notes
9:16here. They're constant examples of inconsistencies in his thought.
9:20These juxtapositions of seemingly paradoxical, uh, uh, policy positions, again, sort of things are wrapping
9:27up, but we're going to bomb them into the stone age.
9:29I think all of these, uh, uh, you know, in addition to the word, the
9:34word finding difficulties, the fact that he can't articulate basic words clearly does make one
9:41again, ask, is he functioning cognitively?
9:46Uh, you know, is he fully there?
9:49Uh, is he passing, you know, he talks often about passing basic cognitive assessments.
9:55That's one thing. And, you know, flexing that he's passing a basic cognitive assessment doesn't
10:01really mean much because you aren't supposed to be repeating those tests, you know, frequently
10:06that, that doesn't really yield anything from a clinical standpoint.
10:09If you're repeating a basic cognitive assessment, uh, you know, every month, that's not something
10:14that typically is, is warranted unless there's a reason first, but then secondarily, we're clearly
10:20seeing signs of cognitive decline.
10:22You know, these are not normal ways to give a speech and just his thought
10:28process, his sentence structure, his ability to articulate a speech, just the fundamentals of it
10:33are all seemingly impaired. And I think if, if anybody's just watching this sort of
10:37politics aside. If you were just listening to the speech, maybe not even looking at
10:42it optically on a TV, you'd be hard -pressed not to come to that decision.
10:48You know, especially we see it later in the night.
10:51I mean, it's always there, but oftentimes any speech that's after, let's say, 5 p
10:57.m. East Coast, I know some people refer to that as like sundowning or, you
11:01know, I don't know if that's a medic, you know, necessarily a descriptive term.
11:05But there is, you know, this after 5 p .m., 6 p .m., the slurring
11:09really gets pronounced, the dozing off, you know, and then we see him many times,
11:16even in afternoon meetings, fall asleep.
11:19And, you know, then the people around him are always bragging, oh, he just stays
11:22awake. He never goes to sleep.
11:24I'm like, we see him sleeping at meetings quite frequently.
11:28And when he gives a speech like that, it's low energy slurring, and it gets
11:32worse at night. What do you make of that aspect?
11:35You know, so I think there is, here's where I would draw a distinction.
11:39I agree with everything you just said.
11:41I do think that as he is, whenever he is giving a public speech or
11:45a presentation in the evening, it does appear to be that there is some sundowning
11:50effect, that it seems like he's just not as sharp and spry.
11:53Some would say, well, you know what, he's the oldest president in the office, and
11:57that comes with age, especially later in the evening.
12:00That typically happens as we age, that we're not going to be as vigorous in
12:04the later hours of the evening.
12:06We might slur our words, fine.
12:08Somebody may suggest that you're just not as spry cognitively in the evening hours.
12:13Let's take that at face value.
12:15Okay, but what we don't expect to happen and what is not necessarily a sign
12:19of normal aging is erratic decision -making, this juxtaposition, again, seemingly paradoxical policy prescriptions, not
12:28completing sentences, jarbling basic words, inconsistencies throughout.
12:34That is not necessarily a function of age, and so whereas some people may say
12:40sundowning is a function of somebody just getting older and not being the same, say,
12:46at 10 a .m. as they are at 8 p .m., fine.
12:49From a medical standpoint, we can expect that with age.
12:52We don't expect all the other traits, Ben, and that is consistent now over the
12:57course of the first year of a second term where these features of all his
13:01speeches seem to be consistent.
13:03He can't get through a speech clearly.
13:05He has word -finding difficulties frequently.
13:08He can't pronunciate words that aren't complicated words often, and he seemingly makes one statement
13:16that's pretty grandiose and erratic and then contradicts it often a sentence later.
13:21So that's not clear, linear thought.
13:24And so anybody that was just, again, listening to the speech and the content of
13:29the speech, if they were reading it, if they were just reading the thoughts, you'd
13:33have to come to some version of a conclusion that something is not correct from
13:38a cognitive standpoint and that there is evidence of decline.
13:41I think we just, you and I have been talking about this honestly.
13:43I think we're asking the right questions.
13:45We're wondering why his doctors don't know that he got a CT instead of an
13:49MRI, why they're putting out editorialized versions of his physical exam and saying he's the
13:54healthiest president ever. There's not transparency coming from his physician team.
13:58So we're asking questions. And I think it's fair for us as part of the
14:04media ecosystem to ask questions and also to call out what's now obvious to all
14:10of us, that there is clear evidence of cognitive decline.
14:12You know, then finally, I want to get your reaction to the statement that he
14:17made earlier yesterday about how because we're such a big nation and because we're such
14:22a wealthy nation, we can't take care of daycare.
14:27We can't take care of Medicaid, Medicare, and all of these things because we have
14:31to take care of the military.
14:33I mean, that's exactly what he said.
14:35And what's your take on that, Doc?
14:37It's really troublesome, and I think consistent with the first discussion here on his cognitive
14:43decline and just consistency of thought.
14:46I mean, here are the facts for our audience.
14:50Medicare is a federally run program, Ben, created under the Social Security Act back in
14:55the Lyndon B. Johnson administration.
14:57It's funded primarily through payroll taxes and federal revenue.
15:01There's some basic structure nationwide.
15:03It's run entirely by the federal government.
15:05It is run entirely by the federal government.
15:08He is suggesting that states should take it over as though that can just happen
15:12overnight. Medicaid is a federal state partnership, but it's largely funded by the federal government.
15:19The combined set of programs, $1 .5, $1 .6 trillion largely federally funded.
15:26That's under federal statute as well.
15:28This is not something, again, that states can just increase some state taxes and take
15:33this over tomorrow. No, that requires a significant overall of the tax structure.
15:37That requires congressional approval, which is not easy to do, and a whole redo of
15:43our basically health insurance ecosystem and infrastructure that is now federally run.
15:49So this notion that the states put aside daycare for a second, because we have
15:54a very sort of patchwork approach to daycare across the country.
15:57Medicare and Medicaid are formal programs run by the federal government largely.
16:01And he is now saying that the states, that these are now the responsibility.
16:07of states. That is a significant, significant statement.
16:12And if he meant it, one wonders who's advising him or is he riffing?
16:17Does he know what he's actually talking about?
16:19Does he understand the implications of what that statement that he made today, seemingly off
16:24the cuff, those implications? Does he understand any of that?
16:28Because if you're a Democrat running in 2026, you should be running on that statement
16:33that he wants to transition Medicaid and Medicare to state -based programs.
16:40And here's why this matters, Ben.
16:41If that's actually what he's saying and states are now, he wants states to run
16:46them, state taxes to somehow make up for federal taxes, clearly the wealthier states are
16:54going to be able to provide greater benefits, greater healthcare.
16:57If this were to happen one day to their people, then non -wealthy states, if
17:02this is truly a state -based program.
17:04So that means frankly, purple and red states are likely going to struggle a lot
17:08more giving basic healthcare to their Medicare and Medicaid recipients than blue states, which tend
17:15to be richer and frankly, far more resourced.
17:19And so this has enormous consequences.
17:22So just like he has $200 billion for three months of the Iran war, and
17:26that is clearly a priority, the fact that he's saying this, every Democratic candidate, frankly,
17:32the American public should be paying attention to this statement.
17:36He's not interested in making Medicare and Medicaid as strong as possible.
17:40He wants states to take it over.
17:42That's fundamentally not what's in the statutory law today.
17:45And two, there's no way states can actually do what he's suggesting that they can
17:49do well. There's not, it's not possible.
17:51And people will suffer if that actually were to come to pass one day.
17:55Dr. Vin Gupta, one more clip I just want to share before we go.
17:59There was just another moment during his speech that I know a lot of people
18:02are pointing to, to say, is he talking, saying nuclear black belt?
18:06Like, what is he even talking about here?
18:08Just play this clip. Brilliance of the United States military.
18:13Tonight, every American can look forward to a day when we are finally free from
18:17the wickedness of Iranian aggression and the specter of nuclear blackmail.
18:22Because of the actions we have taken, we are...
18:25Again, I mean, he's trying to say blackmail.
18:27I mean, you know what he's trying to say, but the words don't...
18:31Anyway, you've covered it all.
18:32We appreciate you, Dr. Gupta, as always.
18:35Thanks for breaking it down, and thanks for also addressing that point where Trump says,
18:39we're such a big nation, we're so wealthy, we just need weapons, and we can't
18:43do any of these programs.
18:46Thanks for joining us, Doc.
