President Trump held an impromptu press conference Sunday night on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews as he returned to the White House from Palm Beach, Florida, and he discussed numerous subjects like the newly announced tariffs against Canada and Mexico. One area that stood out was when he lambasted the United Kingdom and the European Union for their unfair trade practices.
They stack the deck, he charged:

Asked about his relationship with the United Kingdom, Trump said he felt he could make a deal:

Regarding the tariffs he’s already announced and any he may be considering, the president said it’s worth the temporary hit b because we’re getting ripped off:
We may have short term a little pain and people understand that, but long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world. We have deficits with almost every country—not every country, but almost—and we’re gonna change it. It’s been unfair. That’s why we owe $36 trillion. We have deficits with everybody, we help everybody, we’ve been helping everybody for years.
And to be honest, I don’t think they appreciate it.
So we’re gonna change that, we’re gonna change it fast—we’re gonna make America great again. […]

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.
