Trump and The Midas Touch - All That Glitters May Be Gold

Tonight I talked about the coin shortage and examined why it may be happening. Some speculate that it is leading to a cashless society. Some are stating that it's just because the mints have been understaffed because of COVID-19. There is however another factor that may be at play. Maybe the old currency is being pulled out of circulation so that it can be replaced by coinage and later bills backed by the Treasure and backed by Gold. Trump has mentioned in the past that he prefers that we be on the Gold Standard and rumors are that he has taken over the Federal Reserve and is melding it with the US Treasury. Let's explore these things together.
