Trump is on an actual warpath. What do thinks going to happen? We've heard rumors that there isn't as much gold as they claim, what do you think?

I truly think it is all there. Now there could be some at the Denver and the West Point Mints if there is some sort of discrepancy given that the US mints gold coins still and does by gold. Fort Knox for all of its fame only now hold a little over half of the US gold reserves.

Fort Knox also holds some gold thats value isnt really tied to gold... For instance ten 1933 Double Eagle gold coins, a 1974-D aluminum cent, and twelve gold (22-karat) Sacagawea dollar coins that flew on the Space Shuttle Columbia (in a mission before its tragic disintegration in '03)

I wouldn't be entirely shocked if it wasn't all there, considering the track record on government audits. Although you are the closest person I know to the actual source, so it stands to reason that you'd know more than me.

So I have looked at a couple of sources I trust and it seems at a max we keep 56.35% of our Gold reserves at Fort Knox. I think it should also be highlighted I doubt we will see anything from inside the US Bullion Depository. The only time was in 1974 and even then it was highly choreographed as to not release any sort of details

I mean look imma give it to you straight! The one thing I could see is a couple of pictures of Trump in front of one of the vaults and holding a gold bar but nothing that really does anything if that makes sense

Makes perfect sense to me.
