Trump says he will build an Iron Dome in America. What the actual fuck is this bullshit? (twitter.com)

My point is why he is even talking about something like this now?

This won't gain him any votes. He might even lose more than a few votes just based on the stupid meme way he described how the Iron Dome works.

As much as I personally loathe Trump for how he fucked us with Operation Warpspeed, not crackdowning on the BLM riots and listening to Fauci on the COVID lockdowns, Trump is who the retarded GOP primary electorate in Iowa selected.

I think Trump is also a retard but alas he is still better than Biden.

If Trump wants to win, he needs to stop talking about nonsense like the Iron Dome and hammer against Biden on the economy, immigration and crime.

What he's talking about here is massive domestic military spending.

This is the main reason why the military industrial complex opposes Trump, because no new wars no new spending. They'd creme themselves to get a working defense shield because then they can fight anybody, they've just never dared to disrupt the MAD dynamic.

Generally people do things for a reason, so if you can't figure it out then you're the one missing something.

The Iron dome is an example of wasteful massive domestic spending.

No Trump voter has ever asked for this garbage.

The MIC will love this idea because they can overcharge for this shit Dome and grift off taxpayer money.

Trump really needs to focus on the essentials to win: economy, immigration and crime.

Stop making excuses for this dumbass idea.

I think you're still missing the point here. Trump already has the voters to win the election in a landslide (in an honest election).

What he has to do is convince the shadow government not to assassinate him and that his second term won't be so bad that they need to use another black swan like covid.

The 'iron hemisphere' gets the military industrial complex off his back. Then he mostly just has to fight the pedos.

You are being delusional here: "Trump already has the voters to win the election in a landslide (in an honest election)."

First of all Trump has lost many voters since 2020 as he now has the new baggage of J6, Operation WarpSpeed and lockdowns.

The amount of votes he got in 2020 was not enough to actually win the damn election.

How is 2024 going to be a honest election when it was rigged when Trump was an incumbent but now it will be fine when he is out of office?

Your logic makes no sense.

Any victory in 2024 will be a hard fought narrow electoral college victory.

Stop making up justifications for dumb things Trump does.

He needs to run a campaign focused on the key issues of the economy, immigration and crime in order to win.

He's using the Iron Dome as a workable example and applying it to Star Wars.

He should just be hitting on immigration but thanks to the Biden administration own actions they can't even claim to be for restrictions.

Essentially, the Biden administration are so shit all you have to be is not them and people will vote for you, Trump has a track record of not being them and those that despise Trump will vote RFK Jr instead not giving votes to Biden. We're at the point where people are more scared they'll try to assassinate Trump than of him actually losing the election or not being allowed on the ballot.

Trump can absolutely still lose the election if he runs a shitty campaign.

I still prefer the orange man winning over Biden.

Suburban independent voters will ultimately decide what happens.

If enough suburban indie voters stay home or vote for third parties in large enough numbers, then Trump can win in the electoral college.

Trump's best path to victory is third parties and voter apathy hurts Biden's suburban/urban coalition and Trump ekes out a narrow win in the electoral college by securing atleast 90 percent of GOP registered voters and by getting atleast 45 percent of independent voters.

The hardest fucking part is getting that independent voter number.

A lot of independent voters vehemently despise Trump. We need these people to stay home or vote third party, they will never vote for Trump regardless of how bad things get under Biden.

It's why I think RFK Jr running independently is the biggest win for Trump and RFK Jr KNOWS this and is running as a spoiler.

Some of his statements about reparations and the like seem to be him trying to court even far left voters, he's trying to basically do what the Bull Moose party did but to the Democrats this time.

Trump COULD still screw it up but him just not picking Haley as VP lowered that chance immensely. And it looks like most, if not all the court cases against him are going sideways so he is in a good position as Biden is getting dragged down more thanks to Israel Gaza war.

I think Cornell West will be the GOP's best ally in this election.

He will pull some progressive leftist votes away from Biden over the Israel/Palestine conflict.

I think RFK Jr.'s involvement will be a wash for the election.

Plenty of people who hate Trump and are actual conservatives will still vote for RFK over his strong stance against tyranny during COVID.

RFK Jr. certainly hurts both Trump and Biden.

Cornell West on the other hand only appeals to the left.

Trump still has not announced his V.P. so he has still time to make a disastrous mistake there like pick MTG which would just kill him in the suburbs.

It remains to be seen if he can delay the court cases and avoid being labeled as a convicted felon before the election.

Trump is totally fucked if he gets convicted before the election. Many older voters will NEVER vote for a felon regardless of the circumstances of the charges.
