Trump's ambitious plan for Golden Dome

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

83% : Asked whether military commanders had requested the system, Trump said he "suggested it, and they all said, 'We love the idea, sir.'"
58% : " Trump added that Canada will be included in the effort.
56% : Trump said the U.S. had officially selected the architecture for the system, an effort which will be led by Vice Chief of Space Operations Space Force Gen. Michael Guetlein.
50% : Golden Dome, first ordered by Trump in January, is poised to receive $25 billion to jump-start the purported missile defense system that would create a network of satellites to detect, track and potentially intercept incoming ballistic missiles.
47% : So we'll have it done in about three years," Trump said.
45% : President Trump says his ambitious, multibillion-dollar Golden Dome missile defense shield would only cost $175 billion to build and be ready in less than three years.
37% : Trump also repeatedly said the system will be entirely made in the U.S. Golden Dome also has been criticized as unnecessary, as the U.S. already protects itself from any potential incoming missiles via a network of systems such as radars and ground-based interceptors, the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system and National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System, a short- to medium-range, ground-based air defense system.
