Show Notes

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben, Brett and Jordy break down Trump's increasingly desperate behavior just days before the midterm elections, as he cancels campaign appearances, lashes out at reporters, and faces hecklers demanding answers about the Epstein files. Meanwhile, alarming developments at the Pentagon raise serious questions about the next phase of Trump's war with Iran, as the U.S. Army trains to dig mass battlefield graves and a top military general is abruptly fired amid reports of plans for a massive escalation. The brothers also examine the growing contrast between Trump's bizarre campaign appearances and Obama's policy-focused rallies, and the devastating economic consequences of Trump's policies. Plus, a major announcement about MeidasTouch's new 24/7 streaming network and a huge celebration as WTF America?! officially debuts at #2 on the New York Times bestseller list, beating the Fox News machine. And much more.
