Yeah, given Trump's timelines on building the wall, I think we can safely expect this to never be finished. This will be yet another indefinite Republican drain on American tax dollars.
Ah, but it will funnel said taxpayer's money into the right cronies' pockets.
It's one of those things that sounds great, but requires a monumental effort to build and this administration lacks any kind of competence to make it happen.
Hegseth said we couldn't even block hypersonic missiles so China could sink our entire fleet in minutes, yet thinks we will not only be able to build a defense system well enough to block them but block them from hitting all of the U.S. and Canada in 3 years, even from space. Who could possibly believe that?
In fact, they don't care about Canada as long as the nuclear weapons detonate far enough from the border.
Ah so Mexico and the Caribbean need protection as well then.
Not really since they aren't on the shortest path of Russian missiles to the USA.
Yeah, upgrading basic government accounting software can take longer than that.
Many will believe it; the nay sayers will be ignored by the propaganda
