Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the No Spin News for Monday, August 12th, 2019. Take your country back. All right, so I had a unique experience on Saturday. I was one of a very few reporters covering Donald Trump's speech in Bridge Hampton, Long Island. So there were no TV or radio people there. They were banned. This was a private event at a house. And there were a couple of print reporters, but no wire service or anything like that. So I had my little pad, and I didn't meet with the president before or after. I was there as a journalist. The people who were there paid a lot of money to be there. So the Trump campaign has already raised close to $200 million.
Starting point is 00:00:54 They're going to raise more than a billion dollars. So the money is enormous. And the people who were at the fundraiser were extremely wealthy individuals. Many people on the South Fork of Long Island, they so-called Hamptons, are exceedingly wealthy. And they summer out there. It's a vacation place. But it's primarily liberal. The people who are conservative in support Trump are afraid if they go
Starting point is 00:01:30 public with that, they'll be banished from the cocktail parties. Oh, and that, you can't have that. So anyway, I'm sitting there and I was in the front row, just a few feet away from President Trump who mocked me throughout the whole speech. Some of it was complimentary, but, you know, he was directing, right, Bill, this kind of stuff. And, you know, I expected that. He hadn't seen me in a while. He doesn't know what's in the upcoming book on the United States of Trump. He doesn't know. Nobody knows. And so it was an interesting experience. So let me give you the nuts and bolts. I sat a few seats away from Secretary of Commerce, Ross, Secretary of the Treasury Mnuchin. Juliani was to the right of me down the
Starting point is 00:02:26 the lane. Lindsay Graham introduced the president, along with the aisle, through the bash, Joe Farrell. And so Mr. Trump, two hours late, so he's two hours late, comes on, and I'll give you my initial repressions, and then I'll tell you what he said, okay? Very relaxed, although he had the suit in the red tie, and it was the summer afternoon, very relaxed. As relaxed as I've seen him. 40-minute speech, off the cuff, a few notes, but nothing, it wasn't reading anything, no teleprompter, very well-delivered speech, wasn't boring at all. All right, quick break. I'm going to do some mail, and my final thoughts on money.
Starting point is 00:03:15 There's a lot of money going on in America now, and I want you to listen to me on this stuff, because I know what I'm talking about. So I got a final thought on money that is going to help you, I think. and then a mail right after this. You have been hearing about gold all over the news. Prices keep going up. Experts are warning. A recession is here.
Starting point is 00:03:37 It's time to prepare. A recent analyst this week says he sees gold going up hundreds of dollars per ounce to hit 1,700.

Starting point is 00:04:12 Okay, let's get to the mail. Mark on the message board says we should not be celebrating diversity. Why do we want to focus on our differences? America is a nation of individuals, not groups or classes. All diversity does is encourage tribalism. which encourages divisiveness, which encourages conflict. It's a very well-thought-out post on a message board mark. But diversity is not supposed to divide us.
Starting point is 00:04:35 It's supposed to bring us together, e-pluribus una from many want. But it's been used by bad people to divide us. Kathy O'Lukasco, Brookfield, Ohio, will you be touring any of the cities with your understanding Trump show? I got four on the list for this year. Phoenix, Mesa, Arizona, which is Phoenix, Valley of the Sun.
Starting point is 00:05:04 All right. Third sold out already after what? Two days. If you want to see the Phoenix show, it's going to be a big show, co-sponsored by K-FYI Radio. You got to get them because those things are going like crazy. Okay, that's number one. That'll be in December, I believe.

Then I'm going to do Boston in October. And then I'm going to do Long Island where the home field in December. Okay, that's the way it is.

Please visit amac.us.amac.us.amac.us. Okay. Final thought based on some information that has come across
Starting point is 00:07:47 today. According to data, U.S. bankruptcy filing surged by 3%, the first half of this year, and the highest level ever in the United States of America. Record American household debt, $14 trillion, including mortgages and student loans. That's $1 trillion higher than the Great Recession of 2008. Credit card debt, $1 trillion, also highest in history. Okay, look. Americans like instant gratification. Here, this is instant gratification, right? You press the thing, whatever you want comes up. Bang, boom, boom. No, don't have to wait, no waiting time, no line, and here it is. Okay. So, that's carrying over to marketplace. Now, if you buy a house, you can have a mortgage most likely, right? Everybody understands that. But you build in the mortgage to your budget. So I have a job, I make this much money, I take.
Starting point is 00:08:47 them this much money. This is a mortgage. I pay it. You got a budget. Expenses, incoming money. It's got a balance. So just buying whatever you want on a credit card and then I'm going to pay it later at 18%. It's the same. I've never in my life paid a dime to a credit card company ever. I have credit cards, okay, because I don't want to carry around on much cash. But I pay it, pay it, pay it, pay it. 18% am I going to pay these idiots? Come on. But Americans and I, they don't think, you've got to think. So important.
Starting point is 00:09:25 So this is on paper. You got to put this on paper, right? Expenses, money coming in. And you got to balance it. And then what's left over, you can have fun with it, but put 10% in the bank or 15. and then you'll get enough money where you invest and people will be paying you so americans have no idea how much risk there is in this money world you really have to concentrate and if you
Starting point is 00:09:58 don't understand it get some friend who does we'll see tomorrow
