Casually implying he could build it with Canada. Trump never adds value to anything, only takes it away. He's a parasite that's always on the lookout for a new host.
Am in Canada, Canadians are absolutely furious at the US and not gonna have any of it. They've basically completely stopped buying American products, to start.
This is Trump's "Star Wars" program. Can't have high speed rail, but we can funnel trillions into the pockets of these government contractors for a solution in search of a problem.
This was my response last time, Canada isn't optional, most ballistic missile paths from Russia and China pass over Canada and detecting them would require radar architecture in Canada
Golden Dome is a space-based system that intercepts ICBMs in their boost and mid-course phases. It's a global missile defense system with or without the help of other countries.
This is just absurd. Even if Chrome-Dome was feasible (it isn't), or a good idea (it isn't), How TF to you propose to protect Detroit, Cleveland, Rochester, and Buffalo... but not Toronto?
Golden Dome is a space-based missile defense system that intercepts ICBMs in their boost or mid-course flight. Being space-based it works with or without the help of other countries. The inclusion of Canada is primarily to spread out costs as such a system could also intercept missiles going to any country, not just the US.

It's just another bridge he's selling to the US public. Canadians thankfully appear smarter than to buy into his polished turds

It's nothing but a pipe dream at this point, and ground bases will still be necessary.
