On the other hand, every day that he's in office, the chances we'll actually need such a defense system goes up as he pursues policies guaranteed to increase the chances of war.
It will cost a lot more and will never be built. It’s like that hyperloop thing that was going to take the world by storm…hey, maybe that’s what all of those robots will do?
Currently the only country that has both the will and (debatable) ability to launch a missile at us is North Korea.
The only reason to do this is if you are planning on pissing a bunch of other countries off.
It will never actually work. All that money will find its way into the overseas bank accounts of the Trump family and their loyal accomplices. Just like in Putin’s Russia.
He's too stupid to build a paper airplane. He has no idea what things actually cost and would willingly throw people into a fire if he felt cold. F this idiot.

He can probably be convinced to be encase himself in a layer of molten gold by telling him that he will be forever celebrated and never forgotten by millions of people in his new state. He will be the new King Tut. 🤫🤫🤫
He couldn't even build his wall on the Mexican border and what was put up is actively falling apart.
Best case this "Golden Dome" will be two guys named Jed and Boomer sitting in lawn chairs with duck guns and a two-four.

Health care - to expensive
Inflation - nothing we can really do to help
Housing - yeeeah, can't help you there
Food - prices aren't that bad, are they?
Military fantasy project - hell yeah, how much do you need to start
I know that Americans, so sure of their innate nobility, will not accept this as plausible, but the rest of the world is seriously considering the possibility that USA are preparing to launch a global war against other nations of the western hemisphere, starting with Canada and Europe.
Who is the paranoid moron afraid of now? Is he planning on doing something more stupid than usual to piss off a nuclear weaponized country, or is this just another stock market manipulation thingy?
It's so much more important to take money that could keep people from starving to feed the military complex by building a system that will just escalate the arms race. Our government is completely idiotic, and in need of some amendments to curb the stupidity.
They have made their contempt for science and scientists known. They’re trying to destroy education. You need educated people to do the R&D to even develop a system this advanced.
You can’t get Expanse-level tech but also gut STEM education.
Trump is a fucking assclown lmao, here’s example 590,368
Let's starve children, rip away heslthcare and bankrupt families so we can build a dome over the US. This guy sounds like a 10 year old with limited knowledge of the world and engineering
Can someone explain how the "Golden Dome" would prevent an attack such as the one that demolished the World Trade Center?
$500 per US citizen to build a white elephant that could be bypassed by an adversary.

Expensive children's Toy. We've spent trillion$ and trillion$ on Defense and Intelligence, and the Russians snuck in the Doggie Door and took over the house. What do we need a dome for now??? Are we gonna attack ourselves? Wait, is this what Eisenhower was talking about? DEFENSE, is 57% of BUDGET.
Maybe instead of holing up here on the taxpayer’s dollar he could just resign and fuck off to Qatar to resume being their village idiot wowed by everything while insisting on McNuggies like a toddler who won’t try new things.
Or even feed hungry children and provide at least minimal health care to citizens. But then us poor people wouldnt die off as quickly and that would hinder proj 2025
That dome goes over Canada. Seeing that we are a sovereign nation, as King Charles is about to subtly confirm with his upcoming throne speech, trump can--as the diplomats say--fuck off.
And then, off to Mars! What a load of grifting bullshit! "If you're not ready for such an advanced plan, that's ok. I'll just take it --- to Shelbyville!"
Here's the thing.
People aren't talking about the spending reduction thing and when they do it's about Musk.
People don't believe he can do anything about Ukraine and when he's mentioned it's always negative.
Attention is on the personal freedom curtailment and deportation issues...
And like anyone who knows the audience who voted for him, he's giving all the big babies a new shiny thing dangling in front of them to talk about.
Basic grifter misdirection.
Behind this delusional fuck stand reptilian people pushing his agenda as distraction from the bigger crimes going on. Cold blooded and power mad. We better get ready for that proverbial poo-in-fan moment.
First of all, those “domes” only works for short range missiles. And Canada and Mexico win just bun letting the Us waste its money building something it doesn’t need.
Second of all, Russia wouldn’t nuke its new investment .
😮💨
Would like this to not be real life.
Fortunately, something like this would take forever to plan so it wouldn't happen before we throw that piece of treasonous crap out.
Given his unhinged nature and megalomaniac disposition, this "gilded cage" project appears to be the dictator's way of keeping his desired subjects contained since it could just as easily be turned inward. Creepy.
And it won’t work. ICBMs travel much faster than short range missiles and are actually in space for most of their flight. Much much harder to find and intercept.
Anyone remember SDI? They called it "Star Wars" then. It was a stupid, impossible fantasy then - still is. If they could shoot down missiles from space, why does cell phone coverage suck? Why isn't GPS more reliable? The only difference is 40 years ago we were smart enough not to believe it.
That’s what all those radar stations are across the northern tier of Greenland and Alaska are for. They have seen and alerted the US military about Russian and other aircraft for decades!
Trust me here: Defense Contractors are ALL OVER this, climbing over each other and knifing competitors brazenly and from the shadows to capture a piece of this "Amazing Opportunity".
"Revenues must increase every year! It's what our stockholders demand!" 🤷😔
A friend once said:"We're ALL complicit."
But Trump and his minions have NO PROBLEMS taking money away from food programs for children (they let the food rot in trucks), rural medical programs, science research, seniors, parks, the Arts (of course because artists are evil deviants - like me), and so many things people actually NEED.
He realized he and his conspirators have made the US universally hated at the same time he has been pushing us into World War III. So now he wants a “Golden Dome” to hide in…. Or he thinks it will actually look like a golden dome and it goes with his interior design aesthetic.
This wanna be dictator has no loyalty or honor. He is a disgrace & traitor.
Is there not an American, a patriot, a Minuteman, freedom fighter, a brave, or a man amongst you?

What a fucking moron.
Not to mention, the dome does nothing to prevent things like hacks of the US power grid, something that would be achievable by dozens of countries

Also, please note, the "Golden Dome" would only protect parts of the USA, so many would still be screwed if a middle attack was launched.
Russia and China aren’t gonna sit around. They are gonna hurl weapons up in to space now too. Great job Donald.
And once weapons are in space. You can move them around. So defense becomes offensive.
Dumb!
Likely it would be in excess of $1.0tn, ie., bigger than the US entire defence budget
It’s fantasy, pure fantasy!
Big waste of money. We have 2 huge oceans that give us a buffer zone to react unless Canada or Mexico decides to attack us.
> Wants to buy this shit
Wonder what he is paranoid about???
80s: We will build a 'Star Wars' like defense system against missiles.
2025: We will build a 'Star Wars' like defense system against missiles.
And now I feel bad because I said Star Wars twice, damnit, 3 times to the legendary actor George Takei of STAR TREK.

Take your dome
and go home...!
It will be an even bigger grift, waste of money and stupid now that Elon and Trump are trying it.

It will end just like that wall.. Billions paid to Trump and his cronies and a "Golden Dome" that couldn't defend a kid throwing rocks.
Is that what Cabbage Patch Hitler™
is trying to fucking communicate?
