Starting point is 00:02:06 No sugar added? Neutral. Refreshingly simple. This is a real photo right here of Donald Trump's hand. Donald Trump is deteriorating before our eyes. He's quite literally rotting. on the outside and on the inside right now. Now, we previously had press conferences from the White House where they said that the real issue here is chronic venous insufficiency,
Starting point is 00:02:37 which they claim is not a serious issue. But Donald Trump has continued this week to show massive deterioration and dementia-like symptoms. I want to share with you earlier this week when Donald Trump asked where President Stubb of Finland was and he was standing right or sitting right across from him. I mean, quite literally, Stubb was right there. Listen to Donald Trump, say, where's Stub?
Starting point is 00:03:00 Is President Stub here? Stub is right in front of you, Donald. Here, play this clip. President Stub of Finland, and he's somebody that, where are we here? Where? I'm right here. Oh, you look better than I've ever seen you look. But you've done a great job, and we wanted to have you here.
Starting point is 00:03:22 And Donald has been doing this a lot lately, like just the other week, and Donald Trump failed to recognize the congressman standing right behind him. And he's like, where is he? Where is he? Oh, there you are. And then the congressman's like, oh, I used to be a Navy SEAL, so I was hiding. Here, play this clip. I'm thrilled to be joined by the bill's sponsor, Congressman Derek Van Orden. Where is Derek?
Starting point is 00:03:43 Derek. Hello, Derek. I didn't see you back there. I didn't see. I'm a Navy SEAL, I'll snack up by here. Mike, how are you, Mike? Mr. President. These two gentlemen is, are terrific.
Starting point is 00:03:55 They are working together, and they've been working together, Michael, a long time. I just want to thank you both, and I'll ask you to say a couple of words. And, of course, you have Donald Trump zigzagging on the red carpet that he rolled out for Vladimir Putin. Trump could not even walk in a straight line right there. Don't forget that, what was it, two weeks ago or so? Donald Trump went to the roof of the White House and started saying he was building nuclear weapons on the roof. Remember that? Here, play this clip.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Mr. President, what do you want to build? What are you trying to build? sir you said you approve you say more missiles are you building missiles what come on dad did you say mizus and when don't trump was on the roof let's not forget also that he was also saying that um he bought everything here he like pointed around to the white house this is mine this is my money he said very bizarre stuff 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 what are you going to follow up here what is that mean what are you
Starting point is 00:05:17 It's a more ways to spend my money. Can you give us another way? I'll let we'll show you. It's just another way to spend my money for the country. You're going to do with me, so you're not going to where it's contributed. Just like my salary is contributed, but nobody ever meant itself. remember when Donald Trump dropped the paper, which he claimed was a deal with the United Kingdom? Remember, he thought Kierre Starmer, the Prime Minister of the UK, was actually the European Union,
Starting point is 00:05:59 and then Trump dropped blank pieces of paper on the floor at the G7, and he couldn't bend down. Here, play this clip right here. We just signed a document. Sorry about that. A very important document. A little windy area. We just signed it and it's done. And so we have our trade agreement with the European Union.
Starting point is 00:06:25 And it's a fair deal for both. And then what was it? On Friday, yeah, Friday Donald Trump held up the photo of himself and Vladimir Putin. And he was like, look, everybody, it's me and Putin. Look at us. Look how good we look together. Very strange stuff right there indeed. And then in that same day on Friday, Donald Trump couldn't stand up.
Starting point is 00:06:44 And so he was throwing maga hats at people who were working construction at the White House. And he was saying, here, take these maga hats. But notice he can't stand up. Really weird stuff right here. Here, play this clip. Thank you. Thank you. 25,000.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Thank you. All right. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Appreciate it. This is what they really like. I respect talent. remember Donald Trump's been struggling to get up on the on Air Force One and he keeps on tripping over himself. Here, play this clip. Before Donald Trump went to Alaska, he kept on calling Alaska, Russia. Do you remember that? Here, play this clip. And it's embarrassing for me to be up here. You know, I'm going to see Putin. I'm going to Russia on Friday. I don't like being up you're talking about how unsafe and how dirty and disgusting this once beautiful capital was.
Starting point is 00:07:50 And then earlier this week, Donald Trump, when he was saying that he was going to federalize elections and he was going to stop mail in ballots because Putin told him to stop mail in ballots. Remember Donald Trump said that whenever he would go into a voting booth, people would ask him for a license plates. Huh? Play this clip. When you go to a voting booth and you do it the right way and you go to a state that runs it properly, you go in, they even ask me. They ask me for my license plate for identity. I said, I don't know if I have it. He said, sir, you have to have it. I was very impressed, actually. And wasn't it? I mean, so Donald Trump wants to shut down the Smiths. You get where I'm coming with these receipts. Donald Trump wants to shut down
Starting point is 00:08:30 the Smithsonian right now and get rid of basically the African American Museum. But this is what he said about it during the first term. Let me show you. I had the privilege of visiting the National museum of African American history and culture right here in Washington, D.C. It's a new beautiful Smithsonian Museum that serves as a shining example of African Americans' incredible contributions to our culture, our society, and our history. It also tells of the great struggle for freedom and equality that prevailed against the sins of slavery and the injustice of discrimination. The work and love of the people who help create such a masterpiece is a testament to the legacy of so many leaders it honors. Can I remind you as well that during the first term, Donald Trump was
Starting point is 00:09:22 rushed to Walter Reed under very mysterious circumstances? And then you had this doctor, who was a former President Obama's doctor, was wondering if it was basically many strokes that were taking place. Let's play this clip. His inability to say words sometimes worries me, tremendously. He is having trouble word-finding when he said, United Shish, instead of the United States. These aren't words, these aren't slips of the tongue. These are words he can't find them. And this is happening over and over again. Comedians joke about it, but it's not a joking matter. I think there is a neurological issue that is not being addressed. And if he had an MRI of his head over there, I would be very pleased
Starting point is 00:10:04 because I think he needs it. Is that something that could have happened in the two-hour time he was there? Yes. It certainly could. And the worry that I have is that maybe he's having small strokes. And, you know, we had that once before in the White House when Woodrow Wilson was president. His inability to find words is peculiar and has not been explained. And I think one has to think of it as a possible neurological issue. What's the wildest scam anyone's ever tried to pull on you?
Starting point is 00:10:33 I've seen everything from long-lost relatives suddenly asking for money to spoofed phone numbers that look exactly like my bank.

So you can just hear what she had to say, here, play this clip. Many in the media have been speculating about bruising on the president's hand and also
Starting point is 00:12:27 swelling in the president's legs. So 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
Starting point is 00:13:12 vein thrombosis or arterial disease. Laboratory testing included a complete blood count, comprehensive metabolic panel, coagulation profile, D-dimer, V-type natriotic peptide, and cardiac biomarker. 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.
Starting point is 00:13:59 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. So the president wanted me to share that note with all of you. I'm happy to take further questions on it. Now, here's the video that we made at the Midas Touch Network to try to highlight whether or not Donald Trump had dementia-like symptoms here, play this clip. And my stupid people, when I wanted to refute it, they said, sir, don't dignify it with a
Starting point is 00:14:31 rebuttal. Have you been noticing peculiar behavior recently in someone you know? Terry Knight, Barrett. Someone who mixes fiction and reality. The late great Hannibal Lecter is a wonderful man. Perhaps someone of advanced age you have known for years. Did you just see Maduro, Venezuela? of course we all have our goofs but consistently odd behavior can be a sign of frontotemporal dementia
Starting point is 00:15:01 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 failing new york times by anonymous really an anomalous struggling to find the correct words is another sign. The Mueller report, I wish, covered 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 it.
Starting point is 00:15:53 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.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Cognitive function will never return and will only deteriorate further. Don't ignore the signs. Here was what Donald Trump's former doctor, Dr. Jackson had to say here, play this clip. There was an incident recently where the president appeared to slur his words while giving an address. Did you look into what the cause of that might have been at all? I did. Yeah, we talked about that. And actually, one of my E&T consultants was
Starting point is 00:17:00 involved in that. We evaluated him. We checked everything out. And everything was normal. We even went so far as to do an ultrasound of his parotid glands and a few other things. And there was absolutely no clinical findings that would suggest. I think the reason for that was, yeah, I mean, I'm not really sure that that that's what the mini strokes were definitely not many strokes he says definitely not many strokes um and then remember donald trump's doctor dr borstein or henry bornestein was basically saying um that donald trump was the person who uh who uh wrote uh his own medical reports at the time here play this clip we ran into dr hill bornestein right out right here right outside his office on park avenue uh and he told us in no uncertain terms and this is the
Starting point is 00:17:45 quote, Aaron, he dictated, he being Trump, he dictated that whole letter, I didn't write that letter, meaning that Trump dictated what he wanted to go into it and essentially Bornstein wrote it up. He did say, he compared it to the movie Fargo, and he said, it takes the truth and moves it in a different direction. Think about that. Now, Bornstein tells us that he was in a car with his wife when he was on the phone with then candidate Trump in December of 2015, and she was going through with Trump what he could say and what he couldn't say. Trump was dictating what he wanted in that letter
Starting point is 00:18:20 and Boynstein was saying, okay, you can say that, you can't say that, he then came here to the office, he wrote it up, Trump's office later, picked it up, he said around 4 p.m. Aaron, we have reached out to the White House, but we have not gotten a response. And then during Donald Trump's first administration, he raided his own doctor to get those medical files.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Here, let's play this clip right there. Exactly were they looking for? Well, as medical records, as pictures, anything I could find. We must have been in here for 25 or 30 minutes. We created a lot of chaos. I couldn't believe anybody was making a big deal about a drug that's to grow his hair,
Starting point is 00:18:59 which seemed to be so important. And it certainly is not a breach of medical trust to tell somebody they take a patient to grow their hair. What's the matter with that? And let's not forget that, you know, Donald Trump would go around bragging about passing cognitive exams all of the time like he does in the Oval Office. Now, I passed a good cognitive. I passed a good cognitive here playing this clip.
Starting point is 00:19:20 Very low IQ president. And by the way, I took my cognitive exam as part of my physical exam. And I got the highest mark. And one of the doctors said, sir, I've never seen anybody get that kind of move. That was the highest mark. I hope you're happy with that. Although they haven't been bugging me too much to take a cognitive. But I did do my. my physical and it was released. I hope you're all happy with it. I noticed there's no question, so probably you are. But the cognitive, they said to me, sir, would you like to take a cognitive test? I said, did Biden take one? No. Did anybody take one? No, not too many people took them. I said, what about Obama? Did he take one? No, he didn't take one either. I said,
Starting point is 00:20:04 let me be the only one to take one. But I've actually taken them three times already. I like taking you know, because they're sort of, they're not too tough for me to take. Well, again, just take a look at the hand right there one more time. I mean, that looks absolutely brutal, brutal, brutal, brutal. I mean, and again, you can judge for yourself the zigzagging on the red carpet. He can't work straight. He can't stand up. You know, what the hell is this guy even saying these days?
Starting point is 00:20:29 He's talking about nuclear weapons on the top of the White House. Anyway, let me know what you think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 6 million subscribers.
