Trump gonna steal gold now.
"I want to see if the gold is there, which I’m sure it will be.”
Just more of the same 24/7 bullshit.
Even putting aside the more outlandish (not “implausible”, just outlandish) theories about what Trump might be up to here, this is an objectively insane thing for an American president to say. He just announced to the world that ~$700bn of the US cash reserves are stored in a location that is not secure enough to prevent theft. At a time when the US debt to GDP is already skyrocketing and foreign lenders are getting increasingly concerned about America’s ability to make good on their debts. Is he trying to engineer a bond market crisis? Because this is the sort of thing you’d do if you were.
Imagine if you were trying to take down the US. All you would need to do is whisper the right things in his ear. But I’m sure that’s not what’s happening.
Imagine if you were trying to take down the US, and you decided to do anything at all differently from what he has done. The shame of the inefficiency would be too much.
Imagine if you’d raped a bunch of children and you were running out of ways to distract the world from the distractions you’d already tried. Crashing the whole world economy makes sense in the “if I can’t have it, nobody can” toddler brain that he’s working with at this point.
Not just US Bullion, other countries store their bullion there too. I believe France already removed it’s holdings or was in the process of
It’s not about theft but “creative” accounting to multiply the reserves on paper. This should never be done on the gold reserves, but history have seen bigger scams than that.
He’s looking for any excuse to get in there so he can walk out with some of the gold.
Fuck knows what he’ll do with it, given his obsession with that precious metal. Shave bits off and put it on his hamberders; melt it and create a gold crown with built-in toupee; create yet another fucking statue to himself or another gold toilet to shit in; store it in his Mar A Lago bathroom like it’s some sort of classified info; use it for his stupid ball room; jizz all over it.
A golden crown, you say?
Anyone who’s ever seen molten gold knows that this is an incredibly bad representation. It glows bright yellow/orange. It doesn’t look like the gold paint they’re pouring here.
This was probably an artistic choice to make it look like gold rather than any molten metal to the average watcher.
Not the point 🥲
What is that from?
Game of Thrones
No, he will follow the pattern of buying calls on gold beforehand, then detonating a nuke in Ft. Knox so the gold supply is irradiated, making the value of his gold skyrocket.
This was in a movie once. I think it was called “The President That Couldn’t Slow Down”
I hope he drinks it.
He’ll want to hold an event at Mar-a-lago with a giant stack of gold. Then the stack disappears. The Supreme Court then says that since he stole it as the president it is legal.
Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell visited in August 2017 during Trump’s first term.
There was also a bunch of chatter about Musk visiting about a year ago, but that never happened.
So we’re just in a loop of making shit up.
Sure, technically it’s been ~9 years since someone in the Trump administration has publicly been there, but Trump’s current Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent also agrees that all the money is there and regularly audited.
I know we all know it’s bullshit, but I wanted to add some facts to the conversation.
(And yes, there is some irony in the source of the facts being Trump’s various Treasury Secretaries.)
They
Any time he says “People are saying,” … it’s him. He thinks he’s people.
Seriously, every accusation is a confession with these people. He’s hoping they give him some gold to take home as a souvenir.
He wants to know how much he can steal, or/and use to gild everything he’s going to remodel at mar a lago and the White House.
(((They)))
I called this out during the DOGE days. Elon was tweeting about it, and I was like watch, they’re gonna “audit” it and find it’s magically all gone
they steal a lot
(In a singing commercial jingle voice) Every accusation is a confeeeeeeeesion
Trump: i swear it was empty when i opened the door!
Trump is a thief so he thinks that everyone is a thief. Plus, I think trump did away with that Fort Knox gold a while ago so I look forward to his “surprised” face, to judge his acting skills.
That gold hasn’t been there since the 70s at least. We moved it all to a less well known location. Trump wasn’t involved, or else he would have stolen it all.
You mean his smirk when the “assassin” ran around outside the ballroom?
Cuz the US is totally still on the Gold Standard. Right? RIGHT? Reich?
All that gold sitting around without a ballroom, anything could happen!
The most transparent example of projection yet?
You think he cannot be any more brazen and greedy. And then he does.
it is 100% empty
The doddering donald couldn’t find his own ass with two hands and a flashlight. Not sure what he thinks he is going to check on.
He’s going to steal it. Saying “they steal a lot” is starting the narrative to cover his own theft.
This motherfucker has that scheme to have everyone in the United States give him money, and continue to give him money, via their cryptocrime/stablecoin.
If he can steal gold on top of that and no one has the balls to stop him, he’ll do it.
The guy has already enriched himself and his family to the tune of BILLIONS just in the 15 months he’s been in office. No way anyone “earns” that kind of money legitimately, and certainly not in that kind of timeframe.
