We’re getting into the home stretch of the 2024 presidential election, and with just over one month to go, former president Donald Trump is seeing a surge in cash to help fund his final push.
According to his most recent filings, the Republican nominee collected about $160 million in September, and it is likely most of the cash will be spent in key swing states, particularly on ad buys.
Trump’s official campaign, joint fundraising committees, and the Republican National Committee reported that 96 percent of the donations were under $200, and the average September donation was around $60. The overall fundraising resulted in the campaign having $283 million total in the final stretch of the 2024 election.
“President Trump continues to inspire millions of everyday Americans to join his America First movement and help fuel the campaign with their hard-earned money. In September, nearly 2.5 million donations under $200 were made,” said Brian Hughes, Trump campaign senior adviser in a statement.
Trump’s September fundraising haul is up $30 million from August, when his campaign reported raising $130 million, but the former president’s operation continues to face a fundraising shortfall compared to Democrats and Kamala Harris’ campaign. Last month, the Harris campaign raked in $361 million – almost triple what Trump raised during the same period. The Harris campaign has not yet released its September fundraising numbers. […]

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.
