    There will come a day where Donald Trump is gone, but the dishonor of those who carried his water will remain.

    Its not even close to being 100% effective btw, even in Israel. It gives the people a sense of security though,.....even if its a false one. Perception is reality to many. Kinda like wearing a mask during Covid.

    Norad tracks. Iron dome is,..... off the top of my head......A ground based missile system that fires multiple smaller missiles at incoming targets at great speed knocking them out before they go BOOM. Problem is....if ONE gets thru...thats the old ball game.

    Trump is a sick, deranged person. And he has gone even further off the rails - I'm starting to hear conservatives acknowledge what the left has known about him from the get-go.

    Also off the top of my head.........Iron dome is based off of the old patriot missile defense system we gave Israel during Desert Storm to help them shoot down Scuds and has been vastly improved.

    Trump isnt talking about moving our society deep underground like NORAD to TRY and survive a nuclear attack. He's talking about a defensive missile system. NORAD is a poor analogy.
