    So Trump wants to build "a great iron dome" over America for national defense. Hmmm. Will the money for that fall from the sky? Or will Canada be paying for it?

    People are lying if they say they aren't excited about the iron dome.

    To destroy incoming ICBM’s? Is there also an iron atmosphere?

    Just Sharpie them away!

    Reading between the lines, his iron dome proposal is another way of telling us he's going to secure the border with something that has a little more muscle than a 10 foot wall.

    I am speculating, but it fits. It's pretty clear there's going to be more muscle this go around as it relates to the border than there was in 2017. If you haven't picked up on that, you must not be paying attention. If you think he's all about the Project 2025 stuff, it's right there in the manifesto. Just sayin'...

    Because undocumented immigrants fall from the sky like ICBM missiles? And the approximately 47% undocumented who overstay a Visa? How will this dome stop them from entering legally?

    Somebody please tell me that this isn't some far-fetched bastardized version of "We're gonna build a wall and Mexico's gonna pay for it." Seriously, I don't know that this is about. Plz tell me it's actually about something tangible, maybe even intelligent.

    I have speculated for a while that most leaders know we're on the pathway to WW3 and he wants to get out in front of it. But I think it ties in with the border also. There were some very articulate points made at the RNC this week. We fought tooth and nail for every inch in Europe during WW2 and now we're allowing our own border to be overrun. Sort of defeats the purpose.

    Trump's solution to potential conflict is to give his pal Putin everything he wants. In exchange, the US gets a Trump Tower in Moscow.

    Trump promises to bring "unity" to the country he's been aggressively dividing for 9+ years.

    Screenshot_20210831-131022_Facebook.jpg

    There's no way in hell Trump can maintain his "unity" charade for more than a few days.

    As for him "seeing the light" following the shooting on Saturday, his real-time response was to shake his fist and growl "Fight, fight, fight!"

    My post above was wrong. I should have said: "There's no way in hell Trump can maintain his "unity" charade for more than 30 minutes.".

    It’s always entertaining to see Trump lackeys get excited, marvel and gush over his stupid ideas
