Well, I'm sure someone is about to at least. Make sure to pat him and his entourage down as they leave.

"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.

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.

“Well, looks like “they” stole it. Such a shame. Nothing else to see here.” -Trump

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 steal a lot

(In a singing commercial jingle voice) Every accusation is a confeeeeeeeesion

They

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.

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

"We have found hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud so far, and we’ve just started,” Trump said

He meant to say “We have done hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud so far”

From what I understand, Fort Knox having gold is just used to distract from it really being underneath a building in a secure complex in New York. If it has some it's miniscule to what was there in say the 1950s.

Takes a thief to recognize game

All that gold sitting around without a ballroom, anything could happen!

You think he cannot be any more brazen and greedy. And then he does.

The most transparent example of projection yet?

Another sympom of a rotten brain.

it is 100% empty

There is no gold in Fort Knox.

He wants to swim in the ingots like Scrooge McDuck! "Splash me boys!"...."with pleasure!"

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.

I'm sure they do because I do

I wonder if they still have the gold they are storing for other nations...

And how much gold Trump will take from Fort Knox to outfit his "ballroom" with life sized massive golden statues of himself.

Did his sons just visit Fort Knox?

In the far future, disinformation machines will confuse Gert Fröbes character from Goldfinger with him.
