I hope Trump stays away from the clickbait

What we do know is that Fort Knox supposedly holds 2.3% of all the gold ever refined throughout human history – a value of around $6.22 billion. This place is so secure that President Franklin Roosevelt is the only president who’s ever been allowed inside.
Sounds like a challenge to me. If we find Trump goes to Ft Knox to look at all that gold, we'll know that he clicks on stuff like 'Secret places you shouldn't dare to visit.' And BTW I think $6 billion is a serious misunderestimate of the gold we keep down here in Kentucky. We've got a major public pensions crisis here so maybe we should just declare independence and keep that gold. What do y'all think?

I understand Mitch McConnell has $27 million or so laying around, maybe he should be required to invest it in Kentucky rather than Chinese shipping interests?
GAH!

I dare say there's several thousand people, specifically the 84th Division and the 4th Cavalry Brigade of the US First Army (East) at nearby Fort Knox, who would quickly make you change your mind.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

No, we'll bring 'em round to our way of thinking. With > $200 bill (per Wikipedia) we can afford a million each and still plenty left for the rest of us.
