(Frontpage Mag)—Primary polling this far out is practically worthless, but it does measure the pulse of the party. Here’s where the Emerson College poll says things stand in the pulse of the Democrats.
Kamala lingered as the frontrunner for a while, but most people, including me, were skeptical about her sustainability. Indeed, there are noises that Kamala will run for governor of California which likely puts her out of the running in 2028.
The race is still wide open and the frontrunners are still barely in the single digits, but Buttigieg appears to be rising, Newsom is up while Kamala has dropped down. I won’t bore you with the percentages because it only matters so much at this stage but it does suggest that Buttigieg is becoming a player and that Newsom’s riots worked.
Buttiieg was somewhat unique in that he was always planning to run. He maintained a PAC even while serving in the Biden administration. He has a base of wealthy backers who love the idea of the first gay president. But he’s also got a ceilling as we’ve seen before. And his negatives, from his track record as ‘mayor’ to his ineptitude as Secretary of Transportation, are huge.
While it’s still early, it’s starting to seem as if Kamala will no longer be a player in 2028, but Buttigieg will.
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
