He gave an exclusive interview with NBC last night, and during the interview, he said that he loves to take these cognitive quizzes. Here's how he describes it here, play this clip. I take cognitive physicals, so I do a cognitive mind test, okay? And a lot of people wouldn't be able to do very well. Not easy.

You know, you get to those last questions. I've aced. I've done three of them. No other president has agreed to do them. I do them because I have no problem with it because I'm 100%. Yeah, they're not called cognitive mind tests. They are cognitive exams to determine mental decline. And then Donald Trump talks about how he continues to take this aspirin over and over again. Here, play this clip. I'm 100%. Now, there will be time. Still taking the aspirin?

I do. I take aspirin. And I don't want to change, you know. I don't want to. So you go against your doctor's orders. You do what you kind of feel. You know, I've been taking aspirin for 30 years. And I don't want to change it.

So, you know, they take the smaller one. I say, well, I want that blood to be nice and thin running through my heart. And then it gets worse from. there. Donald Trump talks about how he loves to take these physicals. He goes, I do this physical and that physical. Here, play this clip. I feel great. I mean, physically and mentally, I feel like I did 50 years ago. It's crazy. Now, there'll be a time when I won't be able to give you that answer, but that time has income, you know? I do. I think it's very important. I've done more physicals. I take physicals just to give the report out. And then he's asked by this NBC reporter, if at any

point your age impacts your job, who's going to tell you that, Donald, because I think the reporter saw what we're all seeing right there, here play this clip. If at any point your age impacts your job, who's going to tell you that or you think you'll know yourself? I think I'll know myself. I think I'll know myself. You know, and there's other examples of really serious kind of physical and cognitive decline during this interview as well. You know, one of the things that stood out to me, you know, is that he could just be saying this because he's terrified of what former president Bill Clinton might testify to when Clinton speaks with Congress about the Epstein files. So Donald Trump may be saying it for this reason.

But Donald Trump, after like trashing former president Bill Clinton and former secretary of state, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump's like, you know what? It really bothers me that Congress, that the Republicans are going after Bill Clinton. Trump says, that hurts me. I don't want them to do that. He understood me. I liked Bill Clinton. You're the one who's going after him.

What are you talking about here? Play this clip. It bothers me that somebody's going after Bill Clinton. See, I like Bill Clinton. I still like Bill Clinton. What do you like about him? I liked, well, I liked his behavior toward me. I thought he got me, he understood me.

And we've seen Donald Trump repeatedly, you know, talk about these cognitive exams, what was it, weeks ago, he randomly held a press conference about whole milk. No one's really even sure what that whole week about whole milk was about. Many believe that RFK Jr. was trying to push raw milk, which may have killed a bunch more people in the United States recently. But then they changed it to whole milk as people realized how crazy it was. But anyway, Donald Trump's like, will the whole milk help my cognitive exams or just something

crazy like that? Here, play this clip right here. So milk would help your cognitive ability. Absolutely. You can tell who's been taking cognitive test. I've taken a lot of them. I've aced every one of them because I drink milk. It's good for it, and it shows.

Now, even Donald Trump's former White House lawyer, someone who knew Donald Trump better than just about anyone. I'm in the Oval Office during the first term. Former White House attorney Ty Cobb. This guy represented the White House. when Trump was in it. This guy was very close to Trump during the first administration. And he just did an interview with our friend Jim Acosta.

And here's what Donald Trump's former White House lawyer said. When your own lawyer is saying this about you, that's usually not a good thing. Here, play this clip. And tie, it sounds as though you are concerned that he is not well. Oh, he's not well. I mean, I'm not, you know, look, I was very clear. when my friend Joe Biden was, you know, shaking hands with the air and struggling to find out, find the door to get off stage and, you know, you know, finally the whole country saw what, you know, I'd seen for a couple of years, you know, after the debate, you know, that he was not well, that he, you know, he was not capable of of leading the country. And, and Trump is worse. I mean, you cannot do those screeds that he did for the G7 or,

the things that he had said about, you know, Greenland, the things he says about Venezuela, the things he says about, you know, his predecessors, Obama, you know, Biden. It's just, it's just insane the things that he says. And I think the story needs to be, you know, how extreme this is, not, you know, isn't this, you know, a standard deviation from the norm? It's not. This is so far out of bounds. Now, people have to deal with it.

It's dangerous. Very dangerous. Yeah. And look, I mean, look at the, look at the damage. We have, we have allies, you know, allies that have been our allies for 100 years, you know, through, through wars, blood and treasure, you know, who will not share intelligence with us because of the war crimes that Trump is committed. They won't share intelligence with us because they're afraid that it goes from Trump to Putin. You know, we are in a place we have never seen before and we need to navigate out of. of it as quickly as possible or we're going down.

And one of the other signs of Donald Trump's demented mind and the cognitive decline that many people suggest is Alzheimer's. Lots of medical people are saying, could it be Alzheimer's? Could it be, you know, rapidly accelerating dementia or other things? Just the attacking of female reporters. Like we know Donald Trump's horrifically misogynistic. We know he's a horrible person. But the way he snaps immediately.

immediately at female reporters. He's always done that his life, but the kind of the uncontrollable nature of it right now, like you remember what happened with Caitlin Collins two days ago, play this clip. Maybe get on to something else. But what would you say to people who feel like they haven't gotten justice, Mr. President? Something that people care about.

Yeah, what did you say? What would you say to the survivors who feel like they haven't gotten justice? You are the worst reporter. No one to see. CNN has no ratings because of people like you. You know, she's a young woman. I don't think I've ever seen you smile. I've known you for 10 years.

I don't think I've ever seen a smile. Well, I'm asking you about survivors of Jeffrey Upstance, Mr. Pusset. Because you know you're not telling the truth. And you're a very dishonest organization, and they should be ashamed of you. And then about two months ago when he was on Air Force One and he yelled at the reporter and said, Quiet, Piggy, quiet piggy. Yes, there's nothing discriminating in the five- -bed-

Quiet, quiet. Quiet, quiet. And then you have, like, Trump sycophon surround him, whether it's Maga Mike Johnson or whether it's J.D. Vance, basically, you know, trying to say, that's just Donald Trump's humor. You know, he's very observant. He's a very funny guy. Like when the other day, when Donald Trump attacked Caitlin Collins, that just shows Donald Trump's awareness. Here, play this clip. I mean, like, there was a moment in the Oval Office. I wasn't even in there, but, you know, I was in the West Wing and somebody sent me with. where he was talking to Caitlin Collins, who's the CNN anchor. And I have like a decent relationship with Caitlin Collins,

which is unusual given that she's from CNN. But the president, she's asking a question, the president says, why don't you ever smile? Yeah. And it's actually like so perceptive, even if you're asking a tough question, even if you take your job very seriously, like why does it always have to be so antagonistic?

Well, I laugh because I saw online, everybody was calling him sexist for saying that. And I literally said the same thing about Caitlin Collins a year ago on my show. She never smiles. Every once in a while you have to smile. Roger Ailes used to tell us that. Every once in a while you get, remember, smile,

Going back to that NBC interview for a moment, the reporter was also asking Donald Trump about why Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, was part of the raid of the Fulton County election offices where they raided and took all of the 2020 election ballots. And Donald Trump's description of Tulsi Gabbard is that she is foreign governments.

He refers to Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, as he describes her as she's foreign governments. What do you mean? She's foreign governments. Are you saying that she's an agent of foreign governments? Play this clip. Why is Tulsi Gabbard there? I don't know, but, you know, a lot of the cheating comes from, it's international cheating. You have people, they say, from China.

You put this on true social. Do you think China tries to influence our election? We know that foreign governments try to influence a lot of things in this country. Well, therefore, she's foreign governments. And of course, you know what, the Midas Touch Network. We have to get expert opinions. So we have Dr. Vin Gupta, who leads Midas Health, renowned doctor, renowned physician. Here's what he says to us about Donald Trump's behavior recently.

Let's play it. Ben, from the very start, I think, number one, he's the president of the United States. So let's hope he's getting beyond the headlines, the care that he needs. He does have a family history, importantly, of age-related dementia. His father famously, this has been well-documented, Fred Trump, had age-related cognitive decline. And it manifested, frankly, and a lot of his family members have actually spoken out about this. There's a lot of similarities between what we're seeing more and more frequently. We're observing a lot of the trends that we first noticed a few months ago.

There's a symmetry between some of these earlier signs in his case and what his father went through. Mary Trump, others of his extended family have spoken out about this symmetry. But what are we seeing? We're seeing, again, we're just observing the facts here. Just to say we don't have his medical data. I don't have access to his medical chart. But this is what everybody's observing, and he's the president. So I think the scrutiny is fair.

word-finding difficulties. The fact that he has inattention, you know, he loses his train of thought. Everybody is describing these speeches as meandering, covering of 30 different topics in the course of, say, two minutes. He's meandering. So that's inattention, clear inability to express his own thoughts, difficulty completing a sentence, tangential speech,

of course, memory issues. He doesn't know that he's talking about Greenland for even the course of a sentence and he confuses it with Iceland. There's significant concern. And, you know, that's just on the nature and content of a speech. More from Dr. Gupta here in terms of what he had to say to us. Let's play this clip right here. But he's lashing out. He doesn't have, he's having elements. I would say, you know, some people say, well, is he showing signs of early Alzheimer's or early just age-related cognitive decline? Perhaps. A lot of the symptoms that we just talked about, are consistent with those diagnoses.

Again, we're just observing what we're seeing. But frontotemporal dementia, you know, the acting out, behavior changes, lashing out, acting unreasonable. You know, one again, one could say this is just core fundamental personality based on what we've seen over the last, frankly, his entire adult life, but it's getting worse. And just taking a look at some of Donald Trump's family members, here's what his nephew, Fred Trump, the third, has said about Donald Trump's, Reiting Health play this clip.

I know what I saw my grandfather. I know what I saw in Donald's older sister, my Aunt Marianne, who in the end, thank you for saying, I am not a doctor. I don't pretend to me. I just, I know the warning signs from both of my grandfather's, what it is. Donald's cousin, John Walters, had dementia. It runs in the family. I'm not happy about it because guess what?

I worry about it myself. you know, when it wears my glasses, oh, on the top of my head now. I don't know, that may be half-heimer's, but it runs in the family. He looks older, and I get it. I mean, I'm not saying anybody who is in that office looks different than when they come out. But the things he's spewing and the craziness, and he just can't stick to a message. And here's what his niece, Mary Trump, had to say about his deteriorating health. Let's play it.

Concerns over Donald's physical and mental decline are mounting, even among Republicans. Donald is 79 years old and a deeply unhealthy person. His father had a very serious case of Alzheimer's that wound on for about 15 years. Every day, Donald seems increasingly feeble and unable to focus. Even the New York Times is starting to catch on to this. And as he weakens, so too does his hold over the Republican Party. On November 19th, journalist Amanda Marcold's speculated in an article that it was Donald's MRI that spurred GOP House members to reverse their stance on the vote to force the release of the Epstein files. She wrote, quote, the White House continues to deny there are problems with Donald's health.

But since they lie about everything, those words mean less than nothing. The public evidence that the 79-year-old Donald is not doing well is hard for even the most die-hard maga types to ignore, unquote. Recently, according to The Daily Beast, Donald accidentally boosted a post from an account literally called impeach Donald for a third time. Included was Senator Mark Kelly's message reminding service members they can be constitutionally obligated to refuse legal orders. In other words, Donald promoted calls for him to be removed from office. It's another day proving the obvious. Donald cannot tell his allies from his enemies, his days from his knights,

or his own propaganda from uncomfortable truths about his failures. And I just also find it interesting that Donald Trump would say, you know, oh, I'm so upset they're going after Clinton, Bill Clinton. And Donald Trump said that with respect to the files, only Bill Clinton is unlike. It's Bill Clinton. Bill Gates and I'm not on the files at all. You're on the files 38,000 times. I saw this one meme over here that says Donald,

it's true, though, Donald Trump, Donald Trump's name appears more in the Epstein files that Harry Potter's name appears in all seven Harry Potter books. Here's what Donald Trump, though, says about him being on the Epstein files. Here, play this clip. I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. And in fact, if you look at the DOJ,

they announced, you know, they released three million, it's like this is all they're supposed to be doing. And frankly, the DOJ, I think, should just say, we have other things to do, because that whole thing is turned out. I mean, other than Bill Clinton and, you know, Bill Gates and lots of people that have,

there are a lot of questions about it, but nothing on me. Well, there you have it, folks. I'll let you judge for yourself what you think about that.
