Trump's Controversial "Golden Dome": A $542 Billion Missile Defense System?

Donald Trump's "Golden Dome" proposal sparks debate. The former president's plan for a $175 billion missile defense system has ignited discussion among experts and within the US government. The Golden Dome aims to detect and intercept incoming missiles, potentially placing weapons in space for the first time. "Once fully constructed, the Golden Dome will be capable of intercepting missiles even if they are launched from other sides of the world and even if they are launched from space," Trump stated in a recent announcement. However, the Congressional Budget Office projects a total cost of $542 billion over 20 years, raising concerns about feasibility. The Pentagon has also voiced concerns, emphasizing the need for stronger action against the growing missile capabilities of China and Russia. The video's analysis of the proposal, combined with expert opinions, provides a comprehensive overview of this significant development.
