and call it good.

Trumps ballroom bunker alone is in need of one trillion dollars (supposedly). Are we to believe the dome is "only" 1.2 trillion?

This is just another trumpty dumpty grift.

Even Republicans might choke on a trillion ($3,000 per US citizen) on one ballroom.

They tend to be pretty reliable.

It won’t work at all.

It’s GOLDEN!!!!!!
When I see the ads for Gold as a hedge against a failed and broken Society, I have to laugh.
For a little perspective, I recommend watching “The Treasure of The Sierra Madre” and taking note of Bogey’s face when he realizes his boots are more valuable than his life.
Dumb/Fuckery at its finest!

We're his biggest grifting project.

Too bad our authoritarian monster wannabe is shitcanning all the relationships on which our security and prosperity depends.

I can't imagine ANY nation he has alienated in a multitude of ways sharing a shred of intelligence with us.

The rate he's going, we probably need an effective "golden dome." Too bad such a thing only exists in his fantasies.

No ABM system will stop 100% of a swarm attack, always be some leakers.

But what they do is plant uncertainty in the mind of a attacker, they have no idea what % of missiles will get shot down but have to assume the worse making missile targeting a lot harder due to uncertainty of a successful strike, forcing them to assign 2 or more warheads per target reducing the number of targets they can hit and the ABM system could get lucky and get a 100% rate on certain targets making target destruction even more uncertain.
It's designed to stop attacks before they happen.

That "dome" has an easier job as Israel is considerably smaller. If the criterion for working is that it stops all missiles etc, it doesn't, but it makes a huge difference in the number of missiles that do hit. This however is at a huge ongoing cost.

The real "dome" for the US is the combination of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans in addition to Canada and Mexico. Preserving that natural and geopolitical dome was thr basis of how we perceived the missiles placed in Cuba during the Kennedy administration.

However, neither the Iron Dome or our geography would protect a nuclear attack. There what has prevented any attack is the idea that doing so is Mutually assured destruction (MAD) My concern especially with the current administration, is if they are led to believe that 100 percent nothing can come in thru the golden dome, they might think they could use a nuclear weapon, but would be protected.

Not to mention that 911 showed we were not protected because our own technology could be used against us.

But many got rich from it.
