President Donald Trump still wants to conduct an audit of Fort Knox, stating that he wants to ensure that the nation’s $700 billion worth of gold is still secure.
During a Sunday, May 10, appearance on Full Measure with Sharyl Attkisson, the president, 79, answered a viewer’s question about his comments from last year about wanting to pay a visit to the U.S. Army installation in Kentucky to inspect the gold reserve there.
“We wanted to go and knock on the door of Fort Knox — a very thick door — and to see whether or not we have any gold in there,” Trump said, adding that he “played with” the idea of an audit.
“I wonder if they left the gold in Fort Knox because they steal a lot,” he continued, but did not clarify who would have supposedly stolen the gold reserves.
