No. Stop it. Remember 2020. Remember the tens of millions of illegal aliens, 14% of whom are apparently registering to vote. Remember that while most states can report results in less than a day, for some reason battleground states like Pennsylvania and Georgia are incapable of reporting for days or even WEEKS after the election.
A popular podcaster told me last week that I need to be more positive on my show and in my newsletter. I get it. People love to be filled with hope and my brand of realistic analysis doesn’t always fit the bill. But on the other hand I’m also not a fearmongering peddler of unhinged doom and gloom meant to terrify my viewers, listeners, and readers. If I did either then my channel would likely have 10x or more subscribers. But that’s just not the goal.
The Globalist Elite Cabal and their minions in the UniParty Swamp are going to do everything they can to steal this election. The 2020 election was stolen (as were many of the 2022 elections) but the shenanigans of the past are infinitesimal compared to what is currently being unleashed for the 2024 election.
For us, this election is about preserving the future of the nation by establishing proper America First policies today. But as much as we think our incentives are high, the incentives of those fighting us are much higher because they’re personal. People like Liz Cheney, Nancy Pelosi, and members of the Military Industrial Complex could lose everything if Trump is elected. For them, there is no limit to what they’ll do to cover up their sins.
This is why I’m not buying into projections or predictions showing Trump winning the Electoral College by a landslide. As he often says, we need to pretend like he’s up by one point in every race. We have to assume that literally every vote counts because some may be counted multiple times while others might not get counted at all. The notion of “too big to rig” must become a reality. There can be no complacency.
We fight to win. We fight to save our nation.
It’s all in God’s hands, but that doesn’t mean we’re just supposed to sit back and let it happen. We have responsibilities and we do not know our role in His plan. We know we must fight the good fight and be as ready as possible for whatever is to come.
On today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show, I’ll be explaining why I don’t buy into the notion that Trump has a 93% chance of winning the election. Do I believe he’s going to get the most legal votes from United States citizens? Absolutely. But as Joseph Stalin allegedly said, “It’s not the people who vote that count, it’s the people who count the votes.”
Also on today’s show:
- 60 Minutes makes a triple joke with their statement about the deceitful Kamala Harris interview edit and none of them were funny.
- Nikki Haley is reportedly talking about joining Team Trump. If she wants to help campaign then that’s fine but if she’s going to be part of the next administration then I’m out.
- The economy is bad. It’s very bad. And fixing it isn’t going to be swift and easy like it was for Trump and the Republicans in 2017.
- Rumors are circulating (sort of) that Kamala Harris made campaign manager Julie Chavez cry over skipping the Al Smith Dinner. Uncorroborated, but it passes the smell test.
- There are four (and possibly five) prominent Democrats who secretly want Kamala to lose.
- Elon Musk – I still don’t trust him but he seems to be on the right side for this election so I’m withholding criticism for now. His latest comment on defending free speech is spot on.
I’ll cover these and more on today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show at 11am Pacific. Also, on Monday and Tuesday ONLY, my daughter’s charter school fundraiser is happening. Please consider buying popcorn today or tomorrow. I can’t say I know if it’s any good since I haven’t tried it but I know it’s for a good cause!
Pray for and work for the best. In the meantime, here are today’s trending links…

Why Bullion Beats Numismatics and Collectible for Your Safe or IRA
Precious metals continue to attract Americans seeking reliable ways to protect their wealth amid inflation, geopolitical risks, and stock market swings. Whether stored in a home safe or held inside a self-directed IRA, physical gold and silver deliver tangible value that paper or digital assets often lack. Yet investors must choose carefully between bullion—pure bars and coins valued mainly for their metal content—and numismatics or collectibles, where rarity, history, and collector demand heavily influence pricing.
Advisor Bullion serves as a dependable source for straightforward, high-quality bullion. The company specializes in physical gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, emphasizing transparent pricing and products that deliver maximum metal content for every dollar spent. This approach makes it ideal for both personal holdings and retirement accounts.
Bullion consists of refined precious metals in standard forms like one-ounce coins (American Gold Eagles, Silver Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs) or bars. Their value tracks closely to the current spot price of the metal. A typical gold bullion coin trades near the live gold spot price plus a small premium. This structure keeps costs clear and predictable.
Numismatic coins and collectibles add substantial value from factors such as age, rarity, minting errors, or historical significance. A pre-1933 U.S. gold coin or graded proof piece can carry premiums of 30%, 50%, or even 200% above melt value. While this appeals to hobbyists, it creates complexity. Pricing depends on subjective grading, collector trends, and auction results instead of daily spot prices.
For investors focused on wealth preservation and retirement security rather than building a collection, bullion often delivers better results.
Lower Costs and Better Liquidity for Home Storage
When keeping metals in a home safe or private vault, liquidity and efficiency count. Bullion offers clear benefits:
- You acquire more actual gold or silver per dollar invested. Numismatics divert a large share of your money into rarity premiums and massive sales commission, reducing your metal exposure.
- Selling bullion involves tight bid-ask spreads, so you recover nearly full spot value with minimal fees. Collectibles require finding the right buyer and may sell at a discount if demand for that specific item weakens.
- Bullion prices remain transparent and update with global spot markets. You can track gold near current levels or silver accordingly and know exactly where your holdings stand. Numismatic values are priced by the Gold IRA companies with hefty margins applied.
- Standardized coins and bars store efficiently and divide easily for partial sales. Rare coins often need protective slabs and controlled conditions, adding hassle and expense.
- Bullion enjoys worldwide acceptance. A 1-oz Gold Maple Leaf or Silver Eagle sells quickly to dealers anywhere. Niche numismatic pieces may appeal only to limited buyers, slowing liquidation when speed matters.
In times when quick access to value becomes important, bullion’s simplicity stands out.
Stronger Fit for Precious Metals IRAs
Precious metals IRAs continue gaining traction as investors diversify retirement portfolios beyond stocks and bonds. IRS rules permit certain bullion products in self-directed IRAs if they meet purity standards (.995 fine for gold, .999 for silver) and are held by an approved custodian. Eligible items include American Gold and Silver Eagles plus many generic bars and rounds from recognized mints.
Numismatic and most collectible coins generally face heavy scrutiny from custodians due to valuation disputes and elevated markups. These higher premiums mean less actual metal ends up working inside the account.
Bullion avoids these issues. Its value links directly to verifiable spot prices, which simplifies reporting and lowers the risk of regulatory challenges. More of your IRA contribution purchases real metal instead of dealer profits or speculative upside. Over time, owning additional ounces that appreciate with the metal itself can create meaningful outperformance compared with high-premium alternatives that deliver fewer ounces.
Regulatory guidance from the CFTC and state securities offices repeatedly cautions against aggressive sales of expensive numismatics or “semi-numismatic” coins for IRAs. For retirement planning, transparent bullion from established providers reduces risk and aligns better with long-term goals.
How to Get Started with Bullion
Begin by clarifying your goals. Are you protecting savings in a safe, or moving part of a retirement account into a precious metals IRA? Focus on the number of ounces you can acquire at current prices rather than chasing marked-up collectibles.
Diversify sensibly: use gold for core preservation and silver for its blend of industrial and monetary qualities. Mix coins for easier divisibility with bars for lower per-ounce costs on larger buys. Arrange secure storage—whether at home with proper insurance or through professional facilities.
As economic uncertainties linger and faith in conventional assets erodes, bullion continues proving its worth as a dependable store of value. Its direct approach avoids the hype that sometimes surrounds collectible markets and keeps the focus on the metal itself.
For investors prepared to strengthen their portfolios, Advisor Bullion supplies the expertise and selection needed to acquire high-quality bullion efficiently. Whether building personal holdings or integrating metals into an IRA, their emphasis on transparent, investment-grade products helps secure more ounces today that support greater financial security tomorrow. In a complicated financial landscape, bullion’s clarity and reliability make it the smarter foundation for protecting what matters most.
